For grown-ups
Stories you can hand over.
Soft-painted picture books for ages 2 to 12, read aloud in a calm voice. No ads, no autoplay rabbit holes, no surprise characters mid-scene. Just stories — calmer ones at bedtime.

What we don't do
The short list of relief.
No ads. Anywhere.
Not before the story, not between scenes, not while you make tea. No animated banners pretending to be part of the story.
No autoplay rabbit hole.
Stories end when stories end. We don't queue the next one to keep your kid on screen — that's your call.
No surprise characters.
A consistent original cast. No paid IP tie-ins, no licensed mascots wandering in mid-scene.
No data-mined kid profiles.
We don't sell or share what your child reads. No third-party trackers, no behavioural ad networks pointed at a 4-year-old.
What we do
What's actually in the app.
One cast, every night
Koyo, Mira, Numi, Orbit, Beat, and Pip anchor the world, with more Koydo friends joining through the shelves. After a month your child has a favorite.
Moonlit is actually calmer
Bedtime stories use slower pacing, softer voices, and settled endings. Not just a dark theme on top of the same content.
Every word, read aloud
Tap to listen, or read at your own pace. Every word lights up as it's read, so emerging readers can follow along — and color the story afterward on a printable page.
Things parents ask first.
- What ages is this actually for?
- Stories are sized for ages 2 to 12 across two bedtime tracks — The Hush (2–7) and The Dreaming Meadow (8–12). The younger end works as read-alouds; older kids read on their own with the voice reading along. Every story shows an age band on its cover.
- Is there a bedtime mode, or is that just marketing?
- Bedtime is its own shelf, called Moonlit. The voice slows down, the colors settle, and the story lands on a calm ending — made for actually falling asleep, not just a dark theme on top of the same content.
- Will my child get hooked on a never-ending feed?
- They can't — there isn't one. One story, then it ends. The controls offer the same friends, and that's it. No algorithmic next-up, no infinite scroll.
- How much does this cost?
- Read free tonight — a set of stories is open with no signup. When you want the full library, one subscription is $7 a month or $50 a year, or $75 once for life. Cancel anytime in your App Store settings.
- Where do the stories come from?
- Original — written, illustrated, and read aloud for Koydo. Not licensed, not pulled from a public-domain pile. Your child sees the same gentle cast in every story, painted by hand.
