Testimonials:

"My only problem with this app is it always makes me fall asleep before I finish the stories! Which I guess is the point, but I always try to make it through and never succeed!"

- itsmeyoyeah

"I haven't slept all night without a sleep aid in ages. I've only had (slumber) for two nights, and I haven't slept like these two nights since I was a carefree kid! I have the Calm app, which also has bedtime stories, and that was ok, but still not a full night's sleep and not a lot of variety. Definitely not the control of content like this app provides."

### 5/5 — Best sleeping app

*2026-08-26, version 3.39.0*

I love it. I’ve been using it for over two years now!

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-08-25, version 3.39.0*

Awesome job it works every time I use it!

### 4/5 — Amazing-but no playlist

*2026-08-24, version 3.39.0*

I really wish there was a playlist feature because the stories are wonderful but they’re so short. I wish we could play them consecutively instead of having to get back on my phone and disrupting my falling asleep. I don’t fall asleep quickly and the pressure of “must fall asleep before the story is over” doesn’t help. There are long stories but not my favorite ones. The stories are the best and most plentiful out of all the sleep story apps, though. I’ve definitely tried them all. It’s also an incredible price for all the stories you get and they’re constantly adding more.

### 5/5 — So good

*2026-08-22, version 3.39.0*

It helps me get sleep 5+

### 1/5 — Hard to listen to some

*2026-08-22, version 3.39.0*

Some narrators have grating voices.. the primary one actually so most of the stories are by him and his voice does anything but help me sleep. It’s very irritating. it would be nice to have more variety. It seems like the stories are childish.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-16, version 3.39.0*

I love using Slumber to fall asleep. My only wish is the ability to queue up a specific number of tracks (like playing exactly two chapters in a row) before the timer stops. Please consider adding a multi-track play option!

### 3/5 — SLUMBER

*2026-08-15, version 3.39.0*

My review is ok. The only problem is that most of the stories are locked. Like, I don’t have the money to pay for a subscription. But the rest is great. Just wish there were more free ones.

### 5/5 — Must Have for Sleep Struggle

*2026-08-12, version 3.39.0*

I have been using this app nightly for almost 2500 nights. I wish there was a more financially accessible way to get the locked sounds and stories. But I’ve faithfully listened to the Warm Jacuzzi for probably 2000 of my total nights. I can’t sleep without it.

### 5/5 — Just the best meditation and mindfulness app ever!!!!

*2026-08-11, version 3.39.0*

Really nice to use if you have insomnia! never have I slept so good listening to slumber! It just really helps me relax and get the sleep I need so I can be able to do good the next day! And it just gets me excited for the next big adventure I will have! I love that they are so calm when reading the story! I always have dreams of the story that they read and it comes to life in my dreams and that is awesome!

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2026-08-11, version 3.39.0*

Was asleep very fast. Have always had struggle sleeping, at first I was happy it wasn’t pushing a subscription, but now im seriously considering subscribing. Absolutely wonderful app- my favorite is rainy day bakery!
