### 3/5 — Only has half the animals they list

*2025-09-13, version 5.6*

Super lovely app. Except that for four bucks you should get at least all the animals they list in the description. I mean the “gameplay” only goes as long as the number of animals your kid can put to sleep, and the base install doesn’t quite cut it to get the average toddler to the sleepy zone. If it weren’t for the misleading description and price, 5 stars. But since you have to pay more for it to really be worth it at all, 3.

Edit to clarify for the devs: if you mention them in the description you are implying they are included in the price. When they aren’t it’s called a “bait and switch”. An unfortunate sour taste for an otherwise delightful experience.

**Developer response:** Hi there, the app was specially developed for toddlers to get them ready for bed. As such, our intention was to provide a balanced playing time so they don't get unnecessarily excited. But you can add more animals in our purchase section if you want a longer playing time.

### 3/5 — Lost purchase on iPhone with update

*2020-04-05, version 5.4*

This is one of my very favorite apps. I bought all the animals years ago. With the latest update, it will not restore on my phone, and I would have to repurchase it. 😪 It only works on my iPad. Any way to restore the purchase on my iPhone please? I would change to 5 stars ⭐️. Thank you.

### 2/5 — Not Happy

*2019-09-24, version 5.2*

I purchased this app back in April of 2016 and have had it on both my iPhone and iPad for all these years.  My grandkids love to play it (even purchased ALL of the extra animals).  However, at some point the app stopped appearing on my iPhone and when I try to redownload it the only thing that comes up in the App Store is another version that costs me $2.99.  I already paid for the app and still have Nighty NIght Circus on both iPhone and iPad.  However, Fox and Sheep are now saying you have to purchase the iPhone version of Nighty Night separately if you want it on your phone.  Sounds like all they want is revenue and I don’t think I will be purchasing anymore of their apps.  I really get tired of buying apps and at some point the developers decide to slightly change something and in doing so expect you to just blindly fork over more money. Not great customer service.  Would complain to Apple but I’m not that tech savvy.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2019-01-18, version 5.1*

Ive been using this up with all 3 of my daughters over the past 6 years. They have all loved it. 

Time for a few new animals maybe?

### 5/5 — I used to read it with my dad...

*2018-06-17, version 4.8*

Are used to read it with my dad and it was a big part of my childhood and I still remember it till this day

### 5/5 — S

*2017-12-23, version 4.7*

Grandchildren are completely enthralled by this book! Me too!

### 5/5 — The kids love it!

*2017-11-11, version 4.5*

My grandkids love this app. It’s the last thing we do before they go to sleep!

### 4/5 — Jon's Mom

*2017-10-03, version 4.5*

I've used this app with my severely brain injured son for five years. He's making miraculous progress & this app is perfect at every stage of his journey. He was a Shaken Baby who was vision impaired & could barely swipe at a tablet. Now he's using his pointer finger to "shut off the lights!"

### 5/5 — Biz çok beğendik! We love it!

*2017-09-23, version 4.5*

We play it with our son together. He enjoys it every each time since he was 8 months old. Now he is 18 months old and it is a great app to keep him busy especially when he doesn't want to sit in his car seat. We speak Turkish and English and I love that it has different language options. 
Oğlumla bu uygulamayı kullanmaya 8 aylıkken başladık, şimdi 1,5 yaşında ve uygulamayı her açılımda Mutlu oluyor. Türkçe öğrenmesi için Türkçe uygulamalar ve çizgi filmler izliyoruz. Bu ve The circus bizim en sevdiğimiz uygulamalar. Çok eğitici, görsel olarak harika ve dil çeşitliliğinin olması çok hoşumuza gitti. Oğlum ne zaman bu uygulamayı açsam gülümsüyor ve hayvanların sesini taklit etmeye çalışıyor. Harika!

### 5/5 — Beautiful, simple and catchy

*2017-09-21, version 4.5*

Love this app! My 18 month old loves it! And so do I. I also bought the extra animals. I love the different languages since we speak Spanish, English and German at home. I wish there was an option to which animals to show. Perhaps more seasons too. Other than that I am very happy with the purchase:)

### 2/5 — Be aware of the different language versions

*2017-07-30, version 4.5*

Bought this app because it had the Portuguese version and was extremely disappointed with not only the way the story was narrated (with a robotic voice), but also with numerous inaccuracies. It sounded like someone was reading straight out of a Google translator -   not worth it if you are looking at a different language other than English.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2017-07-22, version 4.5*

Great bedtime story for my grandchildren.

### 5/5 — My son loves it!

*2017-05-11, version 4.5*

My 4 year old doesn't go to bed without this. Great app!

### 5/5 — Kids love it

*2017-04-26, version 4.5*

Kids insist on it every night.

### 2/5 — Super joli, mais n'accomplit rien

*2017-03-23, version 4.5*

Après 2 minutes à éteindre les lumières... c'est fini!?

### 4/5 — Fun and different

*2017-02-22, version 4.5*

My 3 year old and I had a blast with this. It was a fun change from the usual bedtime stories we read every night. The only thing is, we both wish there were more interactive pieces in each scene! A little more would make it so much more interesting! We were pressing on the bottles, hay, and everything else in the scenes and nothing happened. If there was more interactive stuff it would be the best for bedtime routines!

### 5/5 — Worth every penny and more

*2017-01-08, version 4.5*

A truly fantastic app.  This has served me through two children and we've incorporated it into our routine. My 6 year old still loves to play it and it's able to stop a tantrum from my one year old in its tracks. 
Buy this app. Other apps from this developer are all equally polished. I've bought them all.

### 1/5 — Sound doesn’t work

*2020-12-15, version 5.4*

No sound....

### 1/5 — Where’s our dlc

*2018-06-20, version 4.8*

We bought the extra animals😺😺😺😺😺 thingy and it didn’t purchase and wasted our 💵  so this is 🤬🤬👌

### 1/5 — Bad purchase. It won't even finish loading ....reset the iPad and still stuck.

*2016-02-04, version 4.1*

Bought a pack and they aren't very good but can't even get this one unstuck and loaded. $$$$$ lost?

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2014-10-26, version 3.8*

Maybe passable for free, but charging for this is a joke.  My 4yr old completed it in 2 min.

### 1/5 — It is a joke

*2014-06-24, version 3.6*

Took 3 minutes to finish !!! Not. Worth it

### 1/5 — Misleading!!

*2014-04-26, version 3.6*

REALLY disappointed that I paid for this app and it doesn't include all of the animals that are listed in the description. 
Very, very misleading!

### 1/5 — Not worth buying

*2014-03-31, version 3.6*

Short story and cost money!!

### 1/5 — Mr

*2013-10-14, version 3.4*

I have to agree with mmmuuummm , this app is totally useless. No story, no entertainment, just going through a farm house turning lights off!! What is the point? Infuriated that I spent money on this app.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2013-10-02, version 3.4*

I was expecting to listen to a story before the animals went to bed. It's a shame, no story, really boring, a rip off!!!

### 1/5 — Way too short

*2013-08-16, version 3.3.7*

Waste of money

### 5/5 — Beautiful and low stimulation game

*2026-06-14, version 5.6*

I first played this 14 years ago when I was little. My parents bought it for me and I played it every night without fail until I was 11 years old. I’m 16 now and  just redownloaded the game so I could get back into my old habit. Thank you for not just the beautiful and comforting graphics, but the memories that come along with it. This will forever be rooted in my childhood.

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2025-07-05, version 5.6*

I do enjoy this app, my grandchildren love it, but why must I pay for it twice  - once for my iPad and once for my phone; that annoys me.

### 5/5 — This game is sooo smooth!!!!

*2025-03-06, version 5.6*

hi I have a great feeling about this game  so you can put animals into bed and  your kids will have a blast with this game 🎮 the  possibilities 
Are endless!!!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-04-12, version 5.6*

Very good my child loves this and always asks to play before she tucks down! Highly recommend 😁

### 5/5 — Very nice

*2023-11-12, version 5.6*

Very nice and cute i like helping animals get some rest☺️

### 5/5 — Aww… cute app

*2023-05-09, version 5.6*

Even though I’m way too old for the game, you should make an older version of this game and this is because I still love this game a lot

### 5/5 — Wonderful Children’s App!

*2022-01-26, version 5.6*

I got this many years ago and my grandchildren have continued to love it! When they sleep over at Nana’s, we always put the animals to sleep before they go to bed. It reminds them that everyone goes to sleep! I purchased the extra animals and they are even more adorable than expected! What a great job the developers have done on this app and I highly recommend it. The app works like a charm and we have used it regularly for at least six years! When I have run into a glitch, their customer service is outstanding.

### 5/5 — How I love it since childhood….

*2021-11-13, version 5.6*

This was my ever favorite app since the age of 4 since it has lots of animals and me to go to bed which is so cool. I love the fish,and the cats because I have 2 cats named meow and macaroni.

### 5/5 — Nighty night

*2020-12-18, version 5.4*

I’ve spent many a morning with now 3 grandchildren hopefully the 4th will love it too. It was wonderfully presented and easy for children from 2 to 8 to use and enjoy. It has a calming influence on already ready to start the day children. Even I didn’t tire from it. Well done to those who created it you obviously have children of your own

### 5/5 — I’m 11 and love it

*2020-03-17, version 5.4*

I played this for a long time and I was 6 years old when I got it and I deleted it at the age of 10 and I miss it and my parents are not going to bye it because they say I’m too old. you can never be too OLD!!!❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻🐷🐔🐣🦆🐶🦊🐱🐻🐮🐭🐹🐰🐑
