NightNight, a case study by Allan Leone

NightNight is a sleep app that refuses to look like one. There is no catalogue of tiles and no chart of hours slept. You open it and there is an orb. Swipe, and the form changes with the sound.

Sixteen handcrafted soundscapes, each with its own shape, palette and pace. A timer runs from one minute to a full day, then the sound fades itself out. Two slots hold a lullaby in your own voice. A song from the phone's library can take the same place. Playback stays on the Lock Screen, the Apple Watch and a Home Screen widget.

Sector: Consumer / sleep. Designed and built at allan.ltd. No ads. No account. No tracking.
