that pause when you do.

With Apple Watch, DreamRead follows your pulse and, over time, learns how you fall asleep — gently pauses when you drift, and opens tomorrow on the very sentence where sleep found you.

A quieter kind
of bedtime ritual.

I.

Sleep-pause

Your Apple Watch sends heart rate and HRV. You pick when to pause — from a light doze to deep sleep — and DreamRead tunes itself to your own falling-asleep rhythm over time. When you drift, the voice gently pauses, and your place is held until morning.

II.

Resumption

Open the app tomorrow and you're right back on the sentence where you fell asleep. Your place saves every few seconds — nothing is ever lost.

III.

Classics, beautifully narrated

Over a thousand public-domain titles from LibriVox, read by narrators chosen for their calm pacing and warm timbre. Search by author, browse by section, or just open whatever sits on the front shelf.

IV.

A listener's tools

Speed, chapters, bookmarks, sleep timer. Everything a serious listener wants — and nothing a sleepy listener needs to hunt for.

V.

Your own library

Import MP3, M4A, M4B, FLAC, and more. The books you already own, with chapter marks, bookmarks, and proper controls — a proper place for the library you already have.

VI.

Private by design

No account, no servers, no trackers. Your library, your progress, your pulse — all of it stays on your device. Nothing is sold, nothing is pushed — DreamRead only pauses what you opened when sleep arrives.

Three steps,
one quiet evening.

01

Open to any page

Pick a book from the catalog or import your own. No account, no onboarding — the library is waiting.

02

Put on your Watch (optional)

With Apple Watch, the app learns how you fall asleep. Without one, set a sleep timer — everything else works the same.

03

Let the story begin

As you drift, the voice gently pauses. Your place is held until morning.

·

Pick up where you left off

The app knows exactly where you left off — often mid-sentence, always mid-thought.

Built for bedtime.
