A brand-new personalized bedtime story every night, written and narrated on your iPhone. Longer stories with Apple's private cloud if you choose. No accounts.
Noctales creates a brand-new personalized bedtime story for your child every single night. Every story is narrated aloud as a beautiful storybook, and gets smarter the more you use it.
WHAT MAKES NOCTALES DIFFERENT
ON YOUR DEVICE BY DEFAULT
Stories are written and narrated on your iPhone using Apple Intelligence, and nothing leaves your phone unless you decide otherwise. Parents can choose Apple's Private Cloud Compute for longer, richer stories: the request is used only to write the story, is never stored, and cannot be read by anyone, including Apple. No accounts. No data collection. No subscriptions to AI services. Just magic.
NOCTALE VOICE
Record 15 phrases once. Your child hears every story in your voice — even when you're traveling, working late, or just need a night off.
STORIES THAT GET SMARTER
After each story, Story Intelligence gently asks what they loved most. Over time, Noctales learns exactly what sparks their imagination and adapts every future story accordingly.
BEAUTIFUL STORYBOOK FORMAT
Follow along word by word as the story narrates. A real bedtime ritual, not just a screen.
PRIVACY YOU CAN TRUST
Our App Store privacy label says it all: No Data Collected. No sign-up. No email. No login. Noctales has no servers of its own. Stories run on the Neural Engine already inside your iPhone, and the optional Apple private cloud is off until a parent turns it on.
STUDIO NARRATOR
A warm, natural AI narration voice downloads automatically after install — no extra steps, no account required.
REQUIRES: iPhone 15 Pro or newer with Apple Intelligence enabled (iOS 27+).
Free to try. Premium unlocks unlimited stories, all narrator voices, and Story Intelligence.
