Doesn’t work
Constantly says the server is busy so I have yet to hear a story !
Response from developer
Sorry you had that, and thank you for telling us. Over the weekend part of the app wasn’t working properly for one narrator, which is where the “server busy” message came from. It’s fixed now and stories are reading aloud again. If you give it another go and anything’s not right, email me at ross@ourstorymagic.com and I’ll sort it myself. Ross, founder
Wonderful story app
This is such a clever idea. Whatever subject you choose becomes a wonderful story. We did a supermarket shopping one, such a fun story with important message. They are reread often. Along with adding your own characters. The children love hearing their names, activities they have done. A fresh story every day. Do try it. 7 days free.

What a wonderful app!
I don’t ever buy apps, and therefore never write reviews…until now. I saw this app advertised on Instagram and immediately looked into what it was all about. Our youngest is neurodivergent and can really struggle to process and understand his emotions. This isn’t just an AI story generator. This app takes into account everything your child has experienced in their day and how they’re feeling at bedtime. I was sold after the first free story (you get two before signing up). My son asks for a story every evening now. We even put Spiderman in as a permanent character and it worked perfectly!
Best app I’ve ever come across. Thank you for creating it!

Great
It’s a really lovely app and makes a change to some of the stories we read. Wish you were able to stream it on your Alexa or something though
Absolutely Beautiful
This app is the best app I have ever come across for kids! My son has ADHD and it has been a game changer at helping him settle at bedtime! The fact you can create ur own characters and give a brief outline of what you want the story to include is incredible and it is so easy to use! The story is beautifully written and the images are great! If you pay the full subscription (which isn’t expensive for what it is) you can even record ur own voice to narrate the story! I will be telling all my friends to download this app

Just brilliant
My 10 year old and 6 year old boys had their first stories tonight and they were delighted! We’re excited to create more. Thank you!
Amazing
I honestly can’t recommend Our Story Time enough.
Since returning to preschool, my 3-year-old had been finding the transition really difficult. Most of her friends had started Reception, there were lots of new children, and mornings had become a real struggle. She’d refuse to get dressed, get really upset, and didn’t want to go.
I came across Our Story Time and thought I’d give it a try. I wondered if having a personalised story about her day, how brave she’d been going to preschool and all the positive things she’d achieved might help.
I was amazed. With just a 400-character prompt, the app created a story that matched her day perfectly. It even added little details that were so her, like glittery dresses and makeup, which made it feel even more magical.
She absolutely loved listening to it and took every word in. The biggest surprise came the next morning when she said, “Mummy, I’m going to be brave and happy today.” She got ready without a fuss and walked into preschool with a smile on her face. I genuinely couldn’t believe the difference after just one story.
She also loved that I’d included family members in the story, making it feel really personal and special. She’s already excited for tonight’s story and keeps asking what adventure she’ll have next.
I’m so impressed with how quickly the stories are created and how meaningful they’ve already been for our family. I have a feeling this will be the best £9.99 a month I’ll spend.
So thank you Ross, you’ve made such a positive difference already.

Easier bedtimes!
This app is absolutely amazing. I’m currently pregnant and my little girl is feeling quite unsettled especially at bedtimes which has led to extended bedtimes and broken sleep for us all! We have been using the app to generate stories based on what’s happening and her current fear of bad dreams and she has settled so much! She loves listening to the stories, they are so personable and I love that you can add so many “characters” from her life. It is so easy to use yet so effective, I cannot recommend highly enough! The illustrations are a bonus and she absolutely has started to look forward to bedtimes for her “special story” and to look at the pictures and spot who is in them. Love the addition of the breathing at the beginning to get us into a calm headspace ready to wind down. Thank you so much!

Beyond magic
We’ve used this app since it first launched and it’s completely transformed our bed times from chaotic and stressful with sometimes hours of negotiation to calm and connecting. I love the way it helps her open up about her day and feelings and gives us promos to reflect together both before and after. I truly cannot recommend enough, thank you

Game changer
We’ve been using this since day one and would never look back, bed times are notoriously tough in our house with busy minds and difficultly slowing down. This has really helped us understand each others day and given us a routine that we actually look forward too now!
Parent Hack Unlocked!
The absolute best way of mastering a solo bedtime of two children who want my attention.
Being able to get my son who is a huge lover of cosleeping to be able to fall
Asleep on his own whilst enjoying a story about his day is absolutely incredible. Made even more so that it is read to him in my voice!

Most beautiful app
This app has been really lovely to use with my children at bedtime. They have loved creating their stories from the day and there are so many great features on it. I have recommended it to all my friends and family.
Amazing
This app has transformed bedtime for us! My son can listen to stories tailored to him and his interests, about his day or favourite memories, and it's really well built. We use it a lot to reinforce positive behaviours like sharing and listening and we are seeing a positive change. We love it in our home.

Fantastic!
Such a fantastic app! My daughter struggles with winding down at bedtime and Our Story Magic has helped hugely with calming her anxieties and giving her beautiful personalised stories. The options to add family members and friends is so lovely, and she adores the stories we’ve had so far.
Bedtime magic
We have loved our story magic! My son is profoundly autistic and non-verbal and it has given him a little voice which is magical. We have all enjoyed listening to the stories together at bedtime. We also love that the stories are saved in his yearbook which is a fantastic diary of his milestone!
Amazing app
Such a beautiful app for children to create their own stories from their day! So much thought has gone into it to make it so special!
A Stress Free Bedtime 🥳
For my 3 year old son this app has been a gamechanger & has allowed me to regain my sanity at the end of a long day.
To be able to fall asleep in his own bed happily with his imagination thriving is not something I would have imagined a few months ago.
Bedtimes had previously been a circle of just one more story, lay with me, dont go, I need you etc etc He would get upset and I would lose my patience but now its all changed.
Now we read a book as normal, then we input the info for our story or he thinks of something random he wants to create. It generates, he looks at the picture & then his star light speaker reads the story to him in my voice.
I go downstairs and voila, a few minutes later he is fast asleep.
He still feels the attachment & has the chance to process what he needs to through the personalised storys & my voice but without the dependance on me physically & that is a huge relief especially when his little sister needs me or I just generally need to win back that time.
A stress free bedtime is worth every penny!
