Infuriating
If you’re a side sleeper and have to use one ear bud, this app is beyond infuriating, especially half asleep in the middle of the night. When you switch ear buds out and go to resume, the music app starts playing g whatever you last had playing. Then you try to go back to the Sleep Worlds app and tell it to continue, it may the first time, it may not. But if you try to restart the app, it just won’t continue, it just hangs there doing nothing while it says it’s playing. That’s absolutely not something I want to deal with half asleep. Combine that with the fact that it’s the same things over and over, it gets repetitive to the point I know them all by heart.

Terrible
Horrible app. Didnt even get yo experience it. Everything behind a paywall. Just make it a paid app instead of free. 100% Terrible.
Highlight of my evening
I have used sleep meditations, ASMR, meditation etc to help me wind down and sleep. The first night I tried this app it wasn’t what I was expecting and unlike anything I’ve used before so I wasn’t sure if it was for me.
I am so glad I tried it again because it’s an absolute delight. The stories are charming, interesting and so deeply relaxing. I get excited to listen and genuinely look forward to what story I’ll hear next. Somehow despite that I find myself relaxing deeply and falling asleep. 10/10

Potential but definitely not there yet!
I really wanted to love this app because the concept is wonderful. The advertising suggests stories that are always changing and evolving, which sounded perfect for sleep and relaxation.
Unfortunately, after using it for a while, I started noticing the same story fragments, phrases, and transitions repeating. Once I recognized the patterns, I couldn’t stop hearing them. Instead of relaxing, I found myself anticipating the repeated sections and waiting for them to appear.
For people who are sensitive to repetition, have anxiety, OCD tendencies, or simply pay close attention to storytelling, this can actually make falling asleep harder rather than easier.
I don’t think this is a bad app, and I believe the developers have a creative idea worth pursuing. However, the marketing currently creates the impression that the stories are far more dynamic and varied than they actually are. If the repetition could be significantly reduced and the story generation expanded, I would happily try the app again.
Until then, I don’t feel the current experience justifies the subscription price. I hope the developers continue improving it because the underlying concept has a lot of potential.

I never hear the end of any of the stories
I guess that’s the whole idea. I’ve been using this app for nearly a year, after giving up on a lot of others. The worlds are richly immersive and endlessly fascinating. Drift off within less than 5 minutes from my frequent night time awakenings.. can’t imagine spending the night without it!
