Hushmoon

For little dreamers, ages 0–8

Bedtime, solved.

Nimbo, a sleepy little cloud, brings a story written tonight with your child's name in it, read aloud in a calm voice, then music-box lullabies and soft sleep sounds, so lights-out feels like a hug.

How it works

Three steps to a sleepy little one

Set it up once in about a minute. After that, bedtime is one tap.

  1. Tell Nimbo about your child

    Add a first name, an age, and up to three favorite things, like dinosaurs, the beach, or Grandma's cat. It stays on your phone.

  2. Add one thing from today

    Optional, and magic: "we built a sandcastle" or "first day at nursery". Tonight's story weaves it in.

  3. Tap "Start bedtime"

    Story, then lullaby, then soft sounds, with a sleep timer that fades everything out. Put the phone down and cuddle.

Features

Everything bedtime needs, nothing it doesn't

No bright screens, no autoplay videos, no endless feeds. Just a gentle voice in the dark.

A brand-new story, every night

Each story is written fresh for your child, starring them by name, filled with the things they love, and always winding down toward sleep. Gentle by design, never scary. Every story passes a safety check before it plays.

  • Read aloud slowly and softly, right on your device
  • Large, dim text so you can read along in the dark
  • Save favorites to the Story Shelf to replay offline

Ava and the Moon Who Lost Her Hum

The sky over Ava's house was the color of blueberry jam, and the moon was trying very hard to remember her song.

Ava remembered the sandcastle she built today, with its tiny shell door. "Maybe the moon's hum is hiding in a shell," she whispered.

So Nimbo floated down, soft as a pillow, and listened very, very closely…

Music-box lullabies

Classic public-domain melodies played on a warm, twinkly music box. Slow the tempo, loop a favorite, and let it fade out gently.

  • Twinkle Twinkle
  • Brahms' Lullaby
  • Rock-a-bye Baby
  • Hush Little Baby
  • All the Pretty Horses
  • Golden Slumbers

Sleep sounds you can mix

White, pink and brown noise, rain, ocean and a gentle heartbeat. Give each its own volume and blend your own. Keeps playing with the screen locked.

  • White noise
  • Pink noise
  • Brown noise
  • Rain
  • Ocean
  • Heartbeat

One-tap bedtime routine

"Start bedtime" plays story, then lullaby, then sounds in a calm sequence. Set a sleep timer for 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes, or all night, and everything fades out softly.

A screen that stays dark

Night mode shows only a very dim, sleeping Nimbo. Tap to reveal the controls. No bright flashes, no videos, and the whole app stays dark even in light mode.

FAQ

Questions from tired parents

What ages is Hushmoon for?

Stories are tuned for ages 0 to 8. You choose the age when you add a profile, and Nimbo adjusts the words and length. Lullabies and sleep sounds work for any age, including grown-ups.

Are the AI stories safe for my child?

Stories are written to be gentle and calming: nothing scary, no violence, no brands and no real people. Every story is checked by a safety filter before it plays, and if one doesn't pass, Nimbo uses a safe, pre-written story instead. Your child never chats with an AI. You choose and play everything.

What happens to my child's name?

Your child's profile is stored only on your device. AI stories are opt-in: if you allow them, asking for a new story sends the first name, age, pronouns, favorite things and your optional note from today to our story server, which asks Anthropic's Claude model to write the story and sends it straight back. We don't store or log it. If you choose built-in stories only, nothing is sent. The details are in our privacy policy.

Does it work without internet?

Yes, mostly. Lullabies, sleep sounds and every story saved to your Story Shelf play offline. Writing a brand-new story needs a connection; if you're offline, Nimbo tells one of 20 built-in stories that still uses your child's name.

Can I add more than one child?

Yes. Add a profile for each child, each with their own name, age and favorite things.

Which devices are supported?

iPhone and iPad running iOS 17 or later. Stories are read aloud with Apple's built-in voices; for the most natural sound, download an Enhanced or Premium voice in your device settings.

How do I cancel or get a refund?

Subscriptions are managed by Apple. Open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions, and choose Hushmoon. Refunds are handled by Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com. More help is on our support page.

Goodnight, made gentle.

Let Nimbo take the last story of the day, so you can take the last cuddle. Hushmoon is coming to the App Store soon.
