## What is HuggleTales?

Your child's bedtime story – in Grandma's voice. Even when she's 5,000 km away.

HuggleTales turns falling asleep into a magical adventure where your child is the hero – told in the voice of someone they love.

Record your voice once, in just 15 seconds. HuggleTales uses neural voice synthesis – not robotic text-to-speech – to read personalized stories in your real voice, night after night. Your child hears YOU, even when you're not there.

What makes HuggleTales special:

Your voice. Their story.
Every story revolves around your child's name, interests and world. You pick the characters, places and plot points – the AI writes a completely new story every time. Never the same one twice.

The Family Voice Library
Invite grandparents, aunts, uncles or other favorite people to record their voice via a magic link – no app download needed. Your child collects the voices of the people who matter most.

Unique illustrations – every time
Every story gets its own illustration, created just for it. No stock images, no recycled artwork. Real, original art, only for your child.

Your voices stay private
Your voice recordings are processed on our own servers and never shared with third parties.

Grows with your child
Vocabulary and complexity adapt automatically to your child's age – from simple sentences for toddlers to exciting adventures for school kids.

Always offline
Once created, stories play fully offline. Perfect for bedtime, road trips and flights.

Safe & ad-free
No ads. No interruptions. A PIN-protected Kids Mode for independent exploring.

Build your library
Save every adventure. Create sequels with the same characters. Spark a love of reading – one story at a time.

Download now. The first story is free.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.4 — 2026-08-25

Bedtime now runs a little more smoothly.

• Daily allowances now reset at your local midnight, wherever your family is
• When a daily or monthly allowance is used up, HuggleTales shows the right explanation instead of a generic error
• Smaller stability improvements during story creation

Sweet dreams.

### 1.2.3 — 2026-08-24

Pictures that finally match the story.

• The characters you choose now really turn up in the cover art — in the middle of the adventure, not lined up for a photo
• Heroes you create get their own portrait
• A Day Pass adds a day of stories, pictures and narrations, no subscription needed
• When something runs out, the app says so before you wait — and never sends you into a retry that cannot work

Sweet dreams.

### 1.2.2 — 2026-08-22

Clear about what comes from AI.

• Stories, cover art and narration now carry a visible label
• A new AI transparency page in Settings shows exactly which parts are generated — and which are drawn by hand
• You can report a story, picture or narration straight from the app if something feels off

Sweet dreams.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-08-10

What's new:

• Heroes: invent a character once and bring them back in every story — same name, same look, story after story.
• Everything has its place: heroes, your voices and the parent area each got their own spot, and the + button opens the story wizard straight away.
• Kids Mode now really locks the phone — we walk you through Guided Access step by step.
• A calmer player: your playlist order sticks, the cover fades in softly, and 10-second skips make "say that again!" easy.
• Plus now includes your own voices and five audio stories a month.
• Waiting is more fun: the loading screen shares a little fact for curious minds.
• Fixed: deleted heroes stay deleted, stars no longer go missing, and a finished story never hides behind an error message again.
