Sleepling

Privacy Policy

Effective October 13, 2026

Sleepling is an iPhone app made by Forum Labs, Inc. ("we", "us") that plays soothing sounds to help babies sleep. It's built to work without knowing anything about you or your family.

The short version

Sleepling doesn't collect, store, share or sell any personal information. It has no accounts, no ads, no analytics and no third-party code, and it doesn't connect to the internet. The optional listening feature measures loudness on your iPhone and never records, and a shush you record yourself stays on your iPhone.

Information stored on your device

Sleepling remembers your last sound, volume and sleep-timer choice so they're ready the next time you open it. These settings stay on your iPhone in the standard iOS storage for app preferences. They are never sent to us or anyone else, and deleting the app deletes them.

The microphone

Sleepling uses the microphone only when you choose to: to record your own shush (see below), or if you turn on listening, so it can start soothing when your baby fusses. It measures how loud the room is, ten times a second, on your iPhone. No audio is recorded, saved or sent to us or anyone else, and you can turn listening off at any time. iOS shows the microphone indicator whenever listening is on.

Your own shush

If you record your own shush, the recording is turned into a loop and saved only on your iPhone, so Sleepling can play it. It's never uploaded or shared. Deleting the recording in Sleepling, or deleting the app, removes it. Like other app data, it may be included in your own iCloud or computer backups of the iPhone.

Information we don't collect

  • No names, email addresses or contact details
  • No recordings, location, camera, photos or health data
  • No device identifiers, advertising identifiers or usage analytics
  • No crash reports sent to us. If you've chosen to share analytics with Apple, Apple may share anonymous crash reports with developers, as described in Apple's own privacy policy.

Children's privacy

Sleepling is meant to be used by parents and caregivers. It doesn't collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13.

If you contact us

If you email us for support, we use your email address and message only to reply to you. We don't add you to mailing lists or share your message with anyone.

Changes to this policy

If we change how Sleepling handles information, we'll update this page and the effective date above before the change takes effect.
