✦1. Getting Started
What is DreamBridge?
DreamBridge is an AI-powered dream journal. You speak your dream aloud right after waking, and the app transcribes it, analyses the symbols and emotions, and builds a personal pattern report over time — helping you understand what your subconscious is working through.
How do I record a dream?
Open the app, tap the microphone button, and speak your dream naturally — as if you were telling a friend. The app listens, transcribes in real time, and generates an interpretation once you stop. No typing required.
When is the best time to record?
Within the first few minutes of waking, before the dream fades. Keep the app on your bedside table and record immediately — even a voice note of a few sentences is enough for a meaningful interpretation.
What languages are supported?
DreamBridge currently supports English. Additional languages are on our roadmap — if your language is important to you, let us know at support@dreambridge.app and we will prioritise accordingly.
◈2. AI Interpretation
How does the AI interpret my dreams?
DreamBridge uses Anthropic's Claude — a large language model trained on a wide body of psychological and symbolic literature. It identifies recurring archetypes, emotional themes, and personal symbols in your dream, then weaves them into a coherent interpretation. Results are personal, not generic horoscope-style text.
How accurate are the interpretations?
Dream interpretation is subjective by nature — there is no single "correct" reading. The AI offers a perspective grounded in symbolic psychology; you decide what resonates. The more dreams you record, the better the pattern analysis becomes at surfacing themes specific to your life.
Is my dream data used to train AI models?
No. We have an agreement with Anthropic that prohibits them from using your content to train their models. Your dreams are processed to generate your interpretation and are not used for any external training purposes.
What is the Patterns report?
After you have recorded several dreams, DreamBridge analyses them together to identify recurring symbols, emotional states, and narrative themes across your journal. This long-view report is often more insightful than individual dream readings.
⬡3. Privacy & Data
How is my dream data stored and protected?
Dream data is stored locally on your device by default, protected by your device's security features. Optional cloud backup uses Supabase with TLS encryption in transit and encrypted storage at rest. When you request an AI interpretation, your dream text (not the audio) is sent through a secure server-side proxy — never directly from your device to the AI provider. We do not sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.
How do I delete my data?
Go to Settings → Privacy → Delete My Data inside the app. This permanently removes all your dreams, interpretations, and personal data immediately. The action is irreversible, so please export anything you wish to keep first.
Can I export my dream journal?
Yes — you can export all your dream data in JSON format from Settings → Export Data. The export includes all entries, interpretations, and your patterns summary.
Where can I read the full Privacy Policy?
The complete Privacy Policy is available at dreambridge.app/privacy. It covers in detail what data we collect, how we use it, your rights, and how to contact us.
◇4. Account & Subscription
What is included in the free plan?
The free plan includes 5 dreams per calendar month and 5 AI interpretations per day. DreamBridge Premium unlocks unlimited dreams, unlimited daily interpretations, the full Patterns report, and extended journal history.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Subscriptions are managed through Apple. On your iPhone go to Settings → [Your Name] → Subscriptions, find DreamBridge, and tap Cancel Subscription. Your premium access continues until the end of the current billing period.
How do I change my account email?
Go to Settings → Account → Email in the app, or email us at support@dreambridge.app and we will update it manually within 2 business days.
I can't log in — what should I do?
Tap "Forgot password?" on the login screen to receive a reset link. If you no longer have access to your registered email address, contact us at support@dreambridge.app with details and we will verify your identity and assist.
⟁5. Troubleshooting
The microphone is not working or not recording my voice.
First, check that DreamBridge has microphone permission: iPhone Settings → Privacy & Security → Microphone → enable DreamBridge. If permission is already on, try closing the app fully and reopening it. Still having trouble? Email us at support@dreambridge.app with your device model and iOS version.
The app is crashing or freezing.
Ensure you are on the latest version of DreamBridge (App Store → Updates). A full close-and-reopen often resolves temporary freezes. If crashes persist, please email support@dreambridge.app — include your device model and a short description of when the crash occurs, and we will investigate promptly.
My dream was not interpreted — I got an error.
This usually means a temporary connection issue with our AI service. Check your internet connection, then tap "Try again" on the error screen. If the problem persists for more than a few minutes, email us at support@dreambridge.app and we will investigate.
I am not receiving morning reminder notifications.
Check that notifications are enabled: iPhone Settings → DreamBridge → Notifications → Allow Notifications. Also verify that Do Not Disturb or Focus modes are not silencing the app during your wake-up window. You can adjust your reminder time inside the app at Settings → Morning Reminder.
