Sleep Yarns

Sleep Yarns is an audio app for people who can't sleep.

Long, unhurried stories written to help you switch off - not to entertain, but to bore you gently to sleep.

STORIES DESIGNED FOR SLEEP
Every story is written to be calming and deliberately uneventful. Slow descriptions of landscapes, methodical inventories, quiet journeys through the night. Nothing exciting happens. That's the point.

AMBIENCE
Layer rain, a crackling fire, ocean waves, wind, or forest sounds beneath your story. Your volume preference is saved, so the app is ready the moment you open it.

MORNING AMBIENCE
Set a morning window and birdsong fades in gradually - no alarms, no jarring sounds. It's an anti-alarm: a gentle transition that lets you wake on your own terms, at your own pace.

FADES OUT ON ITS OWN
Set a duration - 30, 45, or 60 minutes - and the volume fades out gradually as your time winds down. No alarms. No abrupt stops. You won't need to reach for your phone.

OFFLINE LISTENING
Download stories over Wi-Fi and listen without a connection. 

BRING YOUR OWN AUDIO
Have a boring podcast or lecture that puts you to sleep? Import it and run it through the same ambience and fade pipeline. Your audio stays on your device - never uploaded.

Stories are crafted with the help of AI, designed to be deliberately slow and uneventful.
