Sleepcast!

Fall asleep to your favorite podcasts without managing timers, rewinding episodes, or losing the best moments.

Sleepcast is built around a simple idea: your podcast player should adapt to your sleep, not the other way around. With an intelligent sleep timer, motion-based extensions, smart night recaps, custom playlists, transcript search, AI summaries, and one-tap bookmarking with audio clips and transcripts, it creates a seamless listening experience from drifting off to waking up.
Just press play, relax, and let Sleepcast handle the rest.

Drift off to your favorite shows without worry, thanks to an exceptionally advanced Sleep Timer:
- Flexible Sleep Timer: Set it by duration or stop automatically at the end of the current episode.
- Smart Sleep Check: A gentle beep and motion detection can sense if you're still awake, extending the timer so listening isn’t interrupted too early.
- Scheduled Listening: Activate the sleep timer only during specific hours with Time Window, perfect for your nightly routine.
- Sleep Timer Statistics: Review a detailed history of your sleep timer sessions.
- Continuous Play: Keep the timer going across multiple episodes with auto-restart.
- Volume Fade-Out: Audio gently fades out during the final seconds for a smooth transition.
