Pzizz focuses on helping you fall asleep quickly and easily. The app uses a combination of randomly mixed sound effects, music and spoken word files to help you fall asleep quickly, and users can indicate if they are ready for a long sleep session or a quick nap. The app also has a Focus mode that encourages you to focus on one task for a specific period of time while you are awake. Clean design and big letters make the Pzizz app easy and pleasant to use.
