Questions and answers

What parents ask us most.

Story safety

Are the stories safe for my child?

Every story idea and every finished story is checked before you see it, and unsafe ideas are refused. No check is perfect, so please read or listen first. If anything is not right, tap the flag on that page to report it. A person reads every report.

Why couldn't my story be created?

Every story idea goes through a safety check before anything is written. CloudSheep is for young children, so we refuse ideas with sexual content, violence, self-harm, drugs, hate, or anything that puts a child at risk.

What's not allowed
Was I charged for a refused idea?

No. Diamonds are only spent when a story is made.

My idea was innocent. Why was it refused?

The check is automatic and it is strict on purpose, so it sometimes refuses a harmless idea. Try saying it another way. If it is refused again, write to us and a person will look.

Who decides if an idea is refused?

An automated check, not a person. A person only reads a refused idea when an account is suspended or when you ask us to look again.

What happens if my ideas keep being refused?

After five refused ideas, story creation is suspended on that account. We warn you before it happens and email you when it does.

My account is suspended. What can I still do?

You can read every story already in your account, and you can delete your account. You cannot create new stories.

How do I ask for my account back?

Reply to the suspension email or write to us. A person will read the ideas that were refused and answer you.

Do you keep the ideas that were refused?

Yes. A refused idea is kept with the account it came from as a safety record, so that we can explain a suspension and review it if you ask. It stays if the account is deleted.

Diamonds

What does a story cost?

A story with pictures and narration costs 15 💎, or 11 💎 without narration. The price is on the button before you spend anything.

Am I charged if a story fails?

No. If the whole story fails, nothing is charged. If the narration fails, you can record it again for free from My stories. If one picture cannot be made, that page shows the picture from the page before it.

How do invites work?

Share your link from the Invite page. When another family makes a CloudSheep account with it, you both get 15 diamonds, which is one whole story with pictures and Nimbus's voice. They don't have to buy anything. Each family can be invited once, and up to 10 families a month earn you diamonds.

How do I delete my account and stories?

Open your Account page and choose Close your account. It deletes every story, picture and voice recording, and it can't be undone. If you can't sign in, write to us and we'll do it for you.
