MindGlitter is a calm, science-first regulation tool for neurodivergent brains. When hyperfocus takes over, your body turns down its cues for hunger, thirst and rest — and hours later the crash hits. MindGlitter is the external nudge your brain isn't giving you. THE REGULATION RESERVE Three gentle channels — hydration, fuel and rest — fold into one simple reserve that shows when you're steady and when it's time to top up, before a spiral starts. It's an estimate from what you log, never a medical measurement. THE 3-BIN SNACK METHOD Pick one protein, one carb and one healthy fat to steady your energy without the decision fatigue. STATIONS & MAINTENANCE Set up hydration and snack stations, then keep them stocked with simple restock reminders — so the fuel is already there before you need it. VOICE NUDGES IN YOUR OWN VOICE Record calm spoken reminders that cut through hyperfocus where buzzers get ignored. LOW-SENSORY BY DESIGN Soft colors, slow motion and plain language. Nothing ever reads as alarm. MINDGLITTER PRO (optional subscription) Unlock spoken voice nudges, focus-session interventions, maintenance calendars, unlimited stations, the full multi-day insights and grocery export. - $9.99/month or $59.99/year, with a 7-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation; auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel anytime in Settings MindGlitter is a wellness and self-management tool, not medical advice.

About

Slumberkin

Features
Read full description

Slumberkin writes a brand-new bedtime story for your child, by name, in about a minute — and then helps you find out which kind of story actually settles them. Tell it who the hero is and where the story happens, choose a theme and how long you want it, and Slumberkin writes it for your child alone: their first name in it, their age setting the language and the length, the things they love woven in, and anything you asked to keep out left out. Then start the tuck-in. The story is read aloud by your device's own voice, paragraph by paragraph, so a pause lands on a sentence rather than mid-word and the last few paragraphs slow down. Choose a soundscape, set a sleep timer, and put the phone down — the sound fades gently on its own and nothing cuts off in the middle of a line. When you come out, log two numbers: how long your child took to settle, and how long you stayed. That is the part a story library cannot do. Slumberkin compares your own nights and draws the Settle Arc — tonight against this child's usual — alongside an evening-reclaimed ledger built from the bedtime you told it was normal for them. It refuses to claim a pattern before it has enough nights to count, and says how many more it needs. Every figure is worked out on your device from the nights you logged. Nothing is streamed: the soundscapes are generated by the app itself, the reading voice is your device's own, and stories you have already saved open and play with no signal at all. Made for parents of children roughly two to ten. SLUMBERKIN PLUS (optional subscription) - Unlimited new stories, unlimited children, your full tuck-in record, all five soundscapes, narration speed control, an unlimited library, and the pattern that says which kind of story settles this child fastest - $4.99 monthly or $34.99 yearly, each with a 7-day free trial - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation; the subscription auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel it in Settings Free includes 3 new stories a week, 2 children, your saved library, the full tuck-in log and the Settle Arc.
