Making every child the hero
Your Story Time was born from a simple idea: what if bedtime stories were as unique as the children who hear them? Not just their name swapped into a template, but a story truly shaped around who they are.
Your Story Time is a mobile app for iOS and Android that creates personalised bedtime and daytime stories for children aged 0 to 12. Each story is written from scratch around the child's name, age, appearance, and interests. It is built by Play Pause Digital, a UK-based studio. The app offers 2 free stories with no subscription required, and a Plus plan at £9.99/month for unlimited stories.
Why we built it
Parents everywhere face the same challenge: finding stories that genuinely engage their child. Traditional books are wonderful, but they're generic. "Personalised" books often just swap in a name and call it done.
We asked ourselves: what if there was an app that turned screen time into story time? One that created genuinely unique stories where your child is the hero, the world matches their interests, and every story feels like it was written just for them?

What we believe
Every child is unique
No two children are the same, and their stories shouldn't be either. Each one is shaped around your child's name, age, appearance, and interests.
Safety comes first
Every story passes through content safety filters, age-appropriate language checks, and profanity detection before it reaches your child.
Quality over quantity
We'd rather your child read one genuinely good story than ten forgettable ones. Proper story arcs, imaginative settings, and meaningful themes.
Screen time, reimagined
We're not anti-screen. We're pro-purpose. Your Story Time turns devices into tools for imagination, bonding, and learning.
Stories you can hear
Every story comes with professional-quality audio narration. Perfect for bedtime wind-down, car journeys, or quiet moments.
Built for growing minds
Vocabulary, themes, and complexity adapt to your child's age. A story for a 3-year-old feels completely different from one for a 9-year-old.
Built by parents
Your Story Time is built by Play Pause Digital, a UK-based studio. We're parents ourselves, and we built the app we wished existed.
Based in the United Kingdom. Available worldwide on iOS and Android.
