An editorial reading of the saved reviews

One critical flaw makes the app nearly unusable for sleep: sound and stories stop when the screen goes off. The user must keep the screen active to hear audio, which directly contradicts the purpose of a sleep app.

What people use it for

Children and teenagers who listen to stories with the screen in hand while staying awake

Bedtime voice stories with live narrators, particularly specific authors like Michael Karnes.

What reviews complain about

Playback stops when the screen locks, making overnight use practically impossible.

What users experience

1 excerpt from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.

I want to and have loved this app for so long. Came back to it recently and they have removed the apps background refresh so IT DOES NOT CONTINUE PLAYING WHEN YOUR PHONE LOCKS OR YOU LEAVE THE SCREEN.
