There are several different sounds on offer, all designed to help you drift off.

Then look in the bottom corner for a tab named Bedtime: the logo is a picture of a bed.

Tap it and then choose your your normal times for going to bed and waking up.

Now scroll down to Sleep Sounds where you can choose a sound.

There are several on offer.

But you could also choose to import a sound from a streaming service if you prefer something else – like a white noise playlist.

When you want to activate your Sleep Sounds, simply open the Clock app and tap on Bedtime.

Then hit the play button and choose a timer.

For instance, you could set the sound to play for 60 minutes.

That should give you enough time to drift off to the gentle sound that you've chosen.

Once you've chosen a time frame, hit play and the sounds will begin.
