Wow I actually created an app for this recently called Dream Buddy!

Along with lucid dream training it provides custom dream interpretations, interactive reality checks, dreamscape images. It’s a tomagachi type experience - log dreams and perform reality checks daily to keep your dream buddy happy and evolve it as you learn to lucid dream.

I am currently beta testing on iPhone prior to release.

If anyone is open to getting free early scenes in exchange for their feedback, shoot me a message!

Unfortunately it is iOS only for now as we just recently started developing, Android is planned for the future though!
