Most applications of this kind make use of a timer that shuts down the computer system or application. Sweet Dreams on the other hand is more sophisticated as it slowly reduces the sound volume of the computer system over time.

This is beneficial for users who feel irritated by the sound volume after some time of playing and those that want to reduce it to fall faster into sleep. The portable application will control the system volume of the operating system meaning it is compatible with all applications that are running on it.

The user can define the total duration of the process, the time the volume duration should begin and the target volume in the end. The duration can range from 5 minutes to 120 minutes while the sound volume can be set between 0 and 100%.

The application will display a graph detailing the sound volume progression over the entire time. Sweet Dreams can furthermore perform one of the following actions after reaching the total duration: shutdown, switch off monitor, standby or hibernate.

English users should not be worried by the German homepage of the developer as the application itself has been completely translated into English.
