Search for ASMR in Apple Music or I\\u2019m assuming other music streaming services, and of course Youtube where There are over 13 million YouTube videos.

\\n

Remember lots and lots to choose from to find what you like.

\\n

I\\u2019ve also found a few skills on Amazon Echo for ASMR as well.

\\n

\\xa0

\\n

For me I\\u2019m specifically more of a music or nature sounds person, which is why I loved this app recommended to me called MyNoise when I was doing a bit of research on ASMR.

\\n

\\xa0

\\n

Amazing sound app, you can change all the elements of each sound track: eg all the different sound track elements: eg birds, waves, crowd noise all in the same track to get your best personal listening experience.

My Quick Thoughts on the Shocks Open Fit Ear Phones

\\n

\\xa0

\\n

Sluggish with VoiceOver on iOS, slow response to gestures on the ear phones, a bit easy to knock off ears even with the ear hooks.

\\n

Sound itself isn\\u2019t to bad, and phone calls are clear.
