Sleep Timer

Set it once, and Night Light X will fade your lights, sounds, stories, and meditations out gracefully after you fall asleep — so nothing runs all night.

Graceful fade-out, not an abrupt stop

A good sleep timer doesn't just hit pause. It slowly draws the volume down and dims the light, mimicking the way you'd naturally fall asleep with a paperback in your hand. Night Light X's timer uses a soft taper so the change is almost imperceptible — you fall asleep, the timer fades, and the room quietly goes dark.

Pick the right duration

15 minutesFor nights when you're already half asleep.
30 minutesThe default sweet spot for most people.
60 minutesIf you need more time to wind down.
Until story endsFade out when a bedtime story or meditation finishes.

Works with everything

The sleep timer applies to whatever you have running — a sleep sound, an AI bedtime story, an AI meditation, a video background, or a glowing custom color. Everything fades together so the room transitions to dark and quiet as one.

Why timers matter: Sleeping with audio or light running all night can fragment sleep, especially during REM cycles. A timer gives you the calming benefits at the front of the night without the disruption later on.

Save your battery

When the timer ends, the screen returns to a low-power state and audio stops — keeping your battery in better shape overnight. If you forget to plug in, the timer can be the difference between a charged morning and a dead phone at 5 a.m.
