"I'm obviously excited about the success achieved so far for Sleep Bug and Sleep Bug Pro," said Arnt-Henning Moberg, the sole designer behind the success of Sleep Bug and Sleep Bug Pro. "There are all kinds of studies linking a lack of sleep to health concerns such as a shorter lifespan, heart diseases, high blood pressure and weight gain. And other studies have demonstrated the many benefits of proper sleep such as, a longer lifespan, improved memory, and lowers stress. It's nice to know the Sleep Bug apps are helping people achieve a faster more relaxed sleep."
Emil Korngold developed the sounds for the Sleep Bug apps and commented, "We wanted to make sure the ambient sounds were as lifelike as possible, with no evident gaps or loops - important factors to ensure realistic ambient sounds that can help people sleep. I'm proud of how realistic all the sounds turned out."
