DriftOff: Better Sleep
Cognitive Shuffle for Insomnia
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Tired body, busy brain? Tell DriftOff what is keeping you up tonight and it builds a quiet session: shuffled words, a soft bed of rain or noise, lights down.
Tired body, busy brain? DriftOff is the sleep app for racing minds.
Say what's keeping you up. One tap later a calm voice reads random, easy words every few seconds, a soft bed of rain or noise plays underneath, and the screen goes dark. Nothing to follow, nothing to solve.
AWAKE AT 2 A.M.? One dim screen, three big buttons, no decisions.
RACING THOUGHTS: the cognitive shuffle, done for you, in your chosen narrator and pace. Classic words, two-word pictures, themed pools, or Letters: a seed word and things that start with each of its letters, the way the technique is often done by hand.
GET IT OUT OF YOUR HEAD: write tomorrow's things down and leave them on your phone. Anything you park is kept out of tonight's words.
WIND DOWN: voice-guided breathing, then sounds.
SOUNDS & STORIES: 29 sounds to layer, 18 narrated stories in one calm voice, a timer that fades out on its own.
MORNINGS: one tap to say how the night went. DriftOff remembers what helped. No scores, no streaks.
HOW THE SHUFFLE WORKS
Based on the cognitive shuffle described by sleep researcher Luc Beaudoin: a steady stream of unrelated, easy-to-picture things gives the planning part of your mind nothing to hold on to, so your own sleepiness can take over. There is nothing to get right; a vague impression is plenty.
FREE: every sound, the core shuffle, two stories, breathing, thought parking, 2 a.m. rescue.
DRIFTOFF PRO: every shuffle category including Sensory mode and Letters, Adaptive pacing, all 18 stories, and your weekly pattern.
No account. No tracking. Nothing leaves your phone.
DriftOff is a sleep and wellness tool, not a medical device or treatment. If sleep problems persist, talk to a doctor.

Ratings & Reviews
Clearer name for what DriftOff does: the cognitive shuffle, for racing minds.
Everything from 1.3.0 is here: one calm recorded narrator across all words, breathing and 18 stories; Racing Thoughts Rescue; the 2 a.m. rescue screen; Letters mode and four new word themes; anything you park before bed is kept out of tonight's shuffle; stories on the Lock Screen.
