Scroll yourself to sleep... 1000+ sounds, stories, music, meditations, and visuals designed to give you great sleep. It's so easy to scroll through your social media feeds and feel terrible. "Doom scrolling" is a real phenomenon that causes a lot of harm to our wellbeing. But it doesn't have to be this way. We've designed Scrollaby to use that same familiar, comfortable scrolling mechanic to present specially created content that relaxes your body and mind to help you prepare for slumber. Instead of counting likes, you'll be counting sheep (not literally, don't be silly). Using the latest clinical and academic research, we've incorporated dozens of different techniques proven to help you rest. Things like HRV Breathing, CBT-I, Progressive Muscle Relaxation, Meditation, Autogenic Training, Pscyho-acoutic music, and much more! Each time you open Scrollaby you'll be presented with a randomized feed of content, keeping things fresh (we add new material to your library every week). You can "heart" content to save it as a favorite. Set a sleep timer for automatic fadeout. Enable Reminders or Healthkit to help build good habits. It's time to trade screen time for sleep time. Happy Scrolling, Happy Sleeping. SUBSCRIPTION AND TERMS When you download Scrollaby you can opt into a 3-day free trial.
