VELVET WORDSYour words.
Your space.
For help with Velvet Words, email support@hyperstatic.io.
How do I save and find words again?
Tap Save on any affirmation. Saved words, your collections, your own words and your reading history are in Yours.
How do I write or record my own words?
Open Yours and tap the write button, or choose Edit wording from the More menu on any line. Heart or Nicole reads your words aloud, right on your iPhone; tap Hear it to listen. To hear your own voice instead, tap Record your voice, allow microphone access, then save. If the voice has to guess how to say a name or unusual word, the editor says so: tap Fix how it sounds and spell it the way it sounds, like Shivawn for Siobhan.
How do I change the narrator?
Open Yours, tap the gear, then under Listening choose Heart or Nicole and tap Preview voice. Both are generated voices that run on your iPhone, so they work offline, including for the words you write.
How do I add a widget?
Touch and hold your Home Screen, tap Edit, then Add Widget, and choose Velvet Words. To change what every Velvet Words widget shows, open Yours, tap the gear, then choose Widgets. To show one particular line, open it in Yours and choose Use on widget. Widget text can be visible while your iPhone is locked.
How do reminders work?
Open Yours, tap the gear, then choose Reminders and add a schedule. Choose its words, its days, and either a time window or exact times. Tap a reminder to read those exact words. Open the app from time to time so fresh affirmations keep coming.
How do I stop seeing a word or line?
Choose Not for me from the More menu to hide a line. To mute a word or phrase everywhere, open Yours, tap the gear, then choose Hidden words.
Where are my words and recordings stored?
On your iPhone. The app has no account or cloud sync. Apple device backups may include app data, depending on your settings. To make a copy, open Yours, tap the gear, then choose Export backup, including recordings. Keep exported backups somewhere private.
How do I restore my data?
Open Yours, tap the gear, then choose Restore a backup and select a Velvet Words backup file. Restoring replaces the current library and turns off reminders until you turn them on again on this iPhone.
Is Velvet Words therapy?
No. It offers general encouragement and personal reflection, without medical or outcome claims. Change or skip anything that does not feel right to you.
What should I include in a support request?
Tell us your iPhone model, iOS version, app version and what happened. Please do not send private recordings, reflections, passwords or backup files unless you choose to share something relevant.
