### 2/5 — Bug!

*2026-05-05*

Il y a un bug d’affichage. L’application ne s’ouvre que partiellement sur une fenêtre réduite. Impossible de changer cet affichage quoi que je fasse. Dommage parce que cette application est super. Merci de régler le problème

**Developer response:** Hi there. Due to technical reasons, we had to split up the Nighty Night app into an iPhone and an iPad version a couple of years ago. You probably downloaded the iPhone version on your iPad. Please contact our customer service: contact@foxandsheep.com. We are happy to help you 🤗💗. Best wishes from Berlin 🦊🐑

### 2/5 — Viel zu teuer !

*2024-06-16*

Wir sind durch YouTube auf die App aufmerksam geworden und haben sie runtergeladen der Preis von 4,99€ ist Okey 
Aber um alle Tiere frei zu schalten muss man für 3 Tiere jeweils 2,99€ dazu zahlen! Finde ich wirklich schade und für 4,99€ hätten wir mehr erwartet

**Developer response:** Hello! We are sorry to hear that you don't like our app 😥. The app was specially developed for toddlers to get them ready for bed. For many families, this app has become a bedtime ritual. Maybe you give it one more chance to discover its true charm 🛌💤❤️‍. Best wishes from Berlin 🦊🐑

### 3/5 — Teuer

*2023-10-12*

Ich finde die App sehr schön. Meine Tochter ist total fasziniert. Wir sind durch YouTube darauf aufmerksam geworden und haben die direkt runtergeladen. Ich bin nur echt von dem Preis schockiert. Man kauft die App für 5 Euro und hat nur den Bauernhof und muss dann noch extra Tierpakete dazu kaufen. Das finde ich aber recht viel. Für den Preis hätte ich erwartet, dass alle Tiere dabei sind und der Zirkus noch dazu. Also Preis-Leistung finde ich nicht angemessen.

### 4/5 — Leider kein HD

*2023-08-02*

Die App ist ein Klassiker und auf unserem ersten iPad hatten wir sie schon für unseren mittlerweile 13jährigen Sohn. Nun gab es nochmal Nachwuchs und ich hab die App nochmal für das aktuelle iPad gekauft. Aber nun bin ich schon etwas enttäuscht, dass es kein HD-Makeover gab. Bei so vielen Downloads und einer Bezahlversion könnte man das doch erwarten.

### 5/5 — 8 anos atras

*2022-09-23*

a 8 anos atras esse era meu jogo preferido hoje tenho 13

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review 🤩. It makes us very happy to hear that you have enjoyed our 🛌💤 app! Best wishes from Berlin 🦊🐑

### 5/5 — Fun and clever

*2022-09-12, version 5.6*

I don’t remember when I first got this app but it was when my grand kids were little. It is fun discovering all the enter active details it has. I especially like the winter Sean’s.

### 5/5 — Игра супер но сейчас глюк

*2022-09-10*

Обожаем эту игру уже со вторым поколением детей, но сейчас экран стал под смартфон и не активировались старые покупки — списали деньги по новой… это печально

**Developer response:** Hello, a few years ago we split the Nighty Night app into an iPad and an iPhone version so that it continues to run stably. Please contact our customer service: contact@foxandsheep.com. We are happy to help you 💗 Best wishes from Berlin 🦊🐑

### 5/5 — Wonderful App

*2022-08-30, version 5.6*

Have been using this with kids for 9 years. They all love it.

### 5/5 — 👁👄👁

*2022-07-21*

Помню эту прекрасную игру, спасибо за то что создали её

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review 🤩. It makes us very happy to hear that you still love our 🛌💤 app! Best wishes from Berlin 🦊🐑

### 5/5 — Fun and relaxing definitely recommend

*2022-03-08, version 5.6*

Had this game ever since it came out always relaxed me and it’s so cute and fun

### 3/5 — Great app but not cheap

*2022-01-23, version 5.6*

I bought this app for my son around 8-9 years ago and he loved it so I’ve bought it again. Completely forgot that to have all the animals you have to pay another £1.99 per 3 animals. I do find that it is quite expensive overall. I do really like the app (which is why I purchased it again) but there are lots of really good apps that are free, or much cheaper and I feel that the price needs to be reassessed, or at least have all the animals from the first download.

Otherwise I love the style of the animation (although this hasn’t changed much in the years between purchases).

### 5/5 — Absolutely Adorable!

*2021-11-11, version 5.6*

We have had this app since my 9 year old was a toddler and she still asks for it! It is beautifully made with such perfect details and music. She loves every animal and is now asking me to get the circus app to go along with it!

### 5/5 — Great App! Make More Please!!

*2021-10-24, version 5.6*

My daughter loves fox and sheep “sleepy time story” apps. Much better than other knock off apps. Our only complaint is they haven’t released any new ones in a while. I’d like to see a ocean reef or anything ocean related app. Maybe a good night space alien app. The possibilities are endless.

### 5/5 — I like this game because it has the snow theme

*2021-09-12, version 5.6*

And this game is perfect

### 5/5 — So Beautiful!

*2021-09-01, version 5.5*

I’ve had this app since my 10 and 12 year olds were toddlers. And I still have it on my phone! It was always soothing when they needed to calm down and, every once in awhile, one of them will still go through the program. I live that you can change the season and the language. The interaction with each animal is so fun, too! I ALWAYS recommend it to parents with small children. In fact, I’m finally writing a review because I’m in the process of sending a link to yet another parent!

### 5/5 — Nap time is now a breeze

*2021-05-21, version 5.5*

This app has helped our toddler settle into sleep with relative ease.  Thank you Fox and Sheep.

### 5/5 — Our Kids Love it!

*2021-03-12, version 5.5*

I’d love to see more feature packs for other animals and scenes. Aside from that, our kids love saying good night to the animals.

### 1/5 — Käufe wiederherstellen klappt nicht

*2023-12-11*

Wir hatten die App von Beginn an damals auf dem iPad 2.
Ich hatte auch alle verfügbaren Tiere dazugekauft. Nun benötige ich die App wieder und soll die zusätzlichen Tiere noch einmal bezahlen… Sehr schade dass es immer wieder so ist, dass in-App Käufe irgendwann nicht mehr wiederhergestellt werden können.
Ich sehe das leider nicht mehr ein und werde sie nicht noch einmal kaufen. Schade… Denn die App ist so schön gestaltet wie keine zweite.

**Developer response:** Keine Sorge 🙂! Damit die Schlaf-Gut-App auch weiterhin stabil läuft, haben wir sie vor einigen Jahren in eine iPad-/ und in eine iPhone-Version aufgeteilt. Bitte wenden Sie sich an unseren Kundenservice, damit wir ihnen weiterhelfen können: contact@foxandsheep.com.  Beste Grüße aus Berlin 🦊🐑

### 1/5 — Unverschämt 4€ dafür zu verlangen

*2022-06-12*

Die Intro 10-15 Sekunden. Danach darf man bei 7-8 Tieren das Licht ausmachen, die Tiere werden beim Namen genannt und dann noch ein „Gute Nacht „ vorgesetzt, dann ist die Erzählung auch vorbei. Geschichte zu Ende!
Fox and Sheep GmbH läuft hier einen schmalen grad der abzocke. Die Marketingabteilung scheint sehr ambitioniert zu sein. Man denkt, man macht was gutes für sein Kind und wirft die 4€ aus dem Fenster. Da muss man tatsächlich die positiven Bewertungen in Frage stellen.

**Developer response:** Hallo, es tut uns leid, dass Ihnen unsere App nicht gefällt. Das Feedback unserer Nutzer ist durchweg positiv, wobei immer wieder erwähnt wird, dass es in vielen Familien zum allabendlichen Einschlafritual geworden ist, da die Kinder spielerisch zur Ruhe kommen. Vielleicht geben Sie ihr noch eine Chance und spielen es erneut mit Ihren Kindern, um den wahren Charme zu entdecken 🛌💤. Viele Grüße aus Berlin 🦊🐑

### 1/5 — Сняли деньги 2 раза,животные не все открыты

*2021-11-13*

Верните вторую сумму и откройте животных

**Developer response:** Hello, we are sorry to hear that you are having problems with our app. Please contact our customer support and let us know what type of device you are using and what iOS version is installed: contact@foxandsheep.com. Thank you very much! 🦊🐑"

### 1/5 — IOS Update = App neu kaufen

*2021-02-16*

Sorry, so geht es nicht! Warum muss ich die App neu kaufen weil sie nach dem iOS Update nicht mehr du funktioniert. Dies ist die einzige App bei die nach einem Update nicht funktioniert.

### 1/5 — Самая глупая покупка в апсторе

*2020-12-11*

За 379 рублей вам предлагают выключить свет(нажать кнопку на экране) у 6 животных, ничего глупее я никогда не покупала. Бесплатный Лунтик в миллион раз лучше!

### 1/5 — Ummm what did I just pay $7 for??

*2020-04-27, version 5.5*

Maybe I’m missing something? Apple rated it as a top sleeping app? Really??
It is a story, that expects children to touch the screen to turn lights out, and it lasts less than 2 minutes! How the heck does looking at a screen and touching it help kids go to sleep?
I think someone must have been getting some kickback on the Fatherly website that I saw this recommended on, because it is in no way, conducive to helping children sleep. 
Had I known that it was one short ‘story’ (and I use that word in the loosest term), I would rather have bought myself extra coffee's in the morning with my $7, than this.

### 1/5 — Ужас.

*2020-04-15*

Просто пустая трата денег. Животных мало, все наборы платные. За три дополнительных зверя 170₽ это норма по вашему?

**Developer response:** Hi,
sad to hear that you don't like it. The App is made as a nighty night routine for small kids. They can help the animals to do the same. The App is completely working without any more purchases. But a lot of users asked us if we could add even more animals, so that they have new content after using the App for a longer time. We added now new animals you can buy. If you don't like them you don't have to buy them, but maybe some others do.

### 1/5 — Meu narrador não fala

*2019-11-01*

Baixei o aplicativo mas não está narrando a história.

**Developer response:** Hi Carla, you can turn the speaker on and off in the bottom left corner in the main scene :) If you have questions, please send a message to contact@foxandsheep.com, we're always happy to help! Greetings from Berlin 🦊

### 1/5 — Не восстанавливаются покупки

*2019-09-27*

Купил животных, после обновления, купленные животные исчезли.

**Developer response:** Hi there, please send a message to contact@foxandsheep.com, we're happy to help! 🦊

### 1/5 — 怎么退钱

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-07-23, version 5.6*

My grandkids have each loved this app

### 5/5 — Problem

*2026-06-27, version 5.6*

I love this app & find it very helpful to get little ones to sleep.  I have , The Forest, The Circus & the Farm.  I had all the animals on all apps but since I had to replace my phone, only some animals appear on the farm.  While it says on the home page that all animals have been purchased,  only some appear when you open the app.  That’s very annoying given that I have paid for all.

### 5/5 — Decided to reinstall it.

*2025-12-24, version 5.6*

Honestly? I cried. It was comforting in a way. The artstyle, the music, everything. It felt like a warm, soft hug.

### 5/5 — Fantastic kids app

*2025-06-28, version 5.6*

My toddler twins absolutely adore this app - it would be great to see it updated for modern devices and screen resolutions!

### 5/5 — Helping to talk

*2024-10-01, version 5.6*

I’ve had this app on my phone since my granddaughter was 6 yrs. old.  She and I enjoyed it together, however when her twin brothers were 4yrs. old and not speaking much, this app helped them to understand speech and to start talking.  It will stay on my phone!  I have tried to encourage other people to get it.  Greatest thing in learning tools.  I’m a retired teacher so I know!

### 5/5 — Im an og

*2024-05-22, version 5.6*

Since i was 2, which was all the way back in 2013, my dad showed me this and put me to sleep, ive loved this app, im kinda bummed they make you huy the spider cat pony goat and other animals now but this app still gives me that nostalgic feeling. I love this app. My dad left and this just brings me closer to him, he didnt leave by choice. One day we will live together again, but for now.. Nighty Night!

### 5/5 — My favorite still

*2024-04-20, version 5.6*

I bought Nighty Night bedtime story a few years ago when my granddaughter was young and I still listen to it now that she is a teen.  I understand that Alistair Findlay is the narrator.  I just love his voice.  Does anyone know whether he narrates NN Circus.  I didn’t find his name listed in the credits for either this app or the Circus

### 5/5 — Ótimo

*2023-10-12*

Melhor app para criança interagir.
Simples, colorido, divertido e apropriado para antes de dormir.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review 🤩. Keep on having fun with our NIGHTY NIGHT app 🛌💤. Best wishes from Berlin 🦊🐑

### 5/5 — Buy the extra animals!

*2023-01-23, version 5.6*

My children loved this app. It’s so soothing and fun to use with little ones. I still have it on my phone and just shared with my little niece.

The free version is beautiful and buying the extra animals is 100% worth it! 

I love that there are different language options, what a treat!

Cannot recommend highly enough. You should download immediately for the little ones in your life.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2022-12-10*

I love this app so much! I downloaded this when I graduated and now my daughter love it as much as I did

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review 🤩. We are very happy to know that you and your daughter enjoy our 🛌💤 app! Best wishes from Berlin 🦊🐑
