Made for quieter nights.

drift off brings together natural recordings, crafted soundscapes, soft music, gentle wind-downs and unhurried stories. The public web edition is free, with no account and no advertisements.

What is included

Six soundscapes, six music tracks, six wind-downs and two narrated starter stories. Four additional stories are shown as Plus items and their recordings are not distributed by this website. Favourites and the morning journal are stored locally in your browser.

About the voices and artwork

Stories use original scripts and prerecorded narration. The four iPhone narrators are Heart and Bella, and George and Michael. The two free web stories feature Heart and George. Recordings were generated before release with Kokoro-82M; playing them does not send your listening activity to a voice provider.

Rain against the Window is by Cori Samuel, released into the public domain. Stream River Water Up Close is by jackthemurray under CC0.

What the browser cannot do

The website cannot read Apple Health, monitor your sleep or deliver an iPhone system alarm. Playback and sleep timers depend on browser activity and device power settings. No complete offline mode is promised. For native alarm and sleep-analysis details, read How monitoring works.

Testing and feedback

We test playback controls, timer boundaries, persistence, free-access limits and responsive layouts. These checks do not establish overnight device reliability or clinical sleep-stage accuracy. Report problems through Help & feedback.
