ZipZap: Sleep & Wake Up

ZipZap is two short, quiet games. One helps you put the phone down. The other helps you get out of bed.

There is nothing to win, nothing to unlock, and no streak to protect.

SLEEP — 5 MINUTES
Two dots appear. You draw a line from the right one to the left. Another pair appears. That's the whole game.

The screen dims as you go. The music fades down. The dots keep a slow, steady pulse that your breathing tends to follow on its own. There is no score, because a score is a reason to try harder — and trying harder is the opposite of falling asleep.

At the end the music stops dead. That silence is the point: it's the cue to put the phone face down and close your eyes.

MORNING — 3 MINUTES
The same idea, running the other way. You draw left to right, the palette is bright, the music comes up instead of down, and the dots pulse faster as the three minutes go on.

This one is scored, and it keeps your personal best — here, a reason to try harder is exactly what you want.

HOW IT WORKS
The app opens on whichever mode fits the hour. Mornings show Wake Up first; evenings show Sleep first. Tap, play, done.

WHAT'S IN IT
• Sleep session — 5 minutes, winding down
• Morning session — 3 minutes, winding up, with a personal best
• Original music by Mr Smith
• Works offline. No account. No sign-up.
• No leaderboards, no notifications nagging you back in

ONE-TIME PURCHASE
ZipZap is free and ad-supported. Ads start after a 3-day quiet period, and never during a session — a sleep game that interrupts you is a broken sleep game. If you'd rather not see them at all, a single purchase removes them permanently. No subscription.

ZipZap is a game, not a medical device. It won't treat insomnia or any sleep disorder. It's a calm five minutes to end the day with, and a brisk three to start one.
