Each night, HabitStories generates a personalized audio story that gently guides your child through one routine — no lectures, no pressure, just a good story.
Nagging and repeating the rules every night doesn't build habits — it builds resentment. One calm story, one gentle nudge, one predictable routine. That's a different approach.
Three steps from opening the app to your child listening to tonight's story.
Add your child's first name, age band, and favorite animal. Takes 30 seconds. First name and birth date stay on your device.
Pick one habit scenario (like "brushing teeth") and one comforting story world (like "forest"). That's tonight's creative brief.
A unique, personalized audio story is generated in seconds. Play it aloud — then start the routine while the mood is set.
Your child picks the world that feels right tonight. Same habit challenge, completely different story.
Pick the routine you're working on tonight. Each scenario has its own story patterns, age-tuned pacing, and parent guide.
For kids who turn lights-out into a 45-minute negotiation. Calm-down stories that close the day, not extend it.
Read the bedtime guide →For toddlers who fight the brush. Stories that build the habit through narrative, not nagging.
Read the brushing guide →Age-tuned stories that reframe nighttime — gentle for 2-3, brave-hero arcs for 4-7.
Read the dark guide →For kids who scream at water but love stories. Use the audio to make the tub feel like a destination.
Read the bath guide →For drop-offs, daycare, sleepovers. Stories that travel with your child when you can't.
Read the separation guide →Snacks, sharing, screen time, getting dressed, separation, doctor visits, and more.
Browse all scenarios →No gimmicks. No screen time after lights out. Just the right story, told the right way.
Each night focuses on a single issue — bedtime resistance, brushing teeth, darkness, snacks, or separation anxiety. Small and specific is what makes it stick.
Each story is freshly generated — the same scenario and world produce a completely different story each night. No repeats, no boredom.
Your child's first name and birth date stay on your phone. Story generation uses anonymous context and selected story options needed to create each audio story.
Slow narration, gentle pacing, zero screen interaction after you hit play. Stories run in the background even when the phone is locked.
We built the privacy model before we built anything else.
First name and birth date are saved locally in iOS storage. Story requests use only the selected options needed to create the audio.
We send a random device ID and category labels — age group and animal type. Nothing that identifies a child.
We don't sell data. We use only the minimal third-party services needed to operate the app.
Designed for parents to use with their children — not for children to use alone.
We don't create child accounts or track children across apps. Parents control the profile, and first name and birth date stay on device.
