Frequently Asked Questions
Answers about safety, 40 Hz, how to get started, and LucidWave’s wellness positioning.
General
What is LucidWave?
LucidWave is a calming, science‑inspired wellness app that offers daily 40 Hz light & sound sessions—like a vitamin for your mind—to support clarity, focus, and long‑term cognitive wellness.
Is LucidWave a medical device?
No. LucidWave is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Why 40 Hz?
Emerging research suggests that rhythmic 40 Hz (gamma) light and sound may help support memory, attention, and overall cognitive wellness. LucidWave turns that into a simple daily practice.
Using the App
How often should I use it?
Consistency matters—short, regular sessions are recommended. Many people start with 10–20 minutes per day and adjust based on comfort.
Does it work in the background?
Yes. Sound can continue with the screen locked. Light mode requires the screen to remain on.
Can I change colors and brightness?
Yes. Pick a light color, adjust brightness, and set a timer (e.g., 5, 15, 30 minutes, or custom).
Safety
Is it safe for everyone?
If you have photosensitive epilepsy or sensitivity to flicker, avoid light mode and consult a clinician. You can use sound‑only mode instead. Stop if you feel discomfort.
What if I feel eye strain or discomfort?
Lower brightness, switch to sound‑only, shorten sessions, or stop using the app. Discontinue if discomfort persists.
LucidWave is for wellness and self‑care. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice.
