HUSTLERS Corp. released the free sleep support app Sanrio Characters Dream Travel ~Yumetabi~ on August 5th for the App Store and Google Play. The app features Hello Kitty, Pompompurin, Cinnamoroll, and Pochacco in a Sleepy Flight Mode that limits smartphone use at bedtime. Waking up arrives at dessert-themed destinations, with over 80 costumes per character to collect.
The app's core mechanic is Sleepy Flight Mode, which simulates air travel when launched at a set bedtime. Restricting smartphone use guides users toward sleep while traveling with the characters. On waking, users arrive at one of over 20 dessert-themed destinations, and maintaining a consistent bedtime unlocks new destinations sequentially.
Collectible content includes costumes and motions, all rendered in 3D, with over 80 costumes per character. The app also offers character-specific ASMR and alarm clocks as daily support functions. Representatives John Moon and Neil Kim said the goal is to naturally build healthy sleep habits through the departure, sleep, and arrival experience, rather than simply limiting phone use.
Yumetabi supports Japanese, Korean, and English, with plans to add destinations and costumes continuously.
