About
Y/n is the most entertaining app in the world. On Y/n, you play a character in your story. Be a boarding school student and get the boys to fall in love with you, or plan a jailbreak with Sherlock Holmes. Stories are made for you. Your texts change the plot and how characters feel about you, so no two playthroughs are the same (but you can rewind). There's a Y/n story for every mood: romance, fanfiction, fluff, mystery, and more. Discover 10M+ stories created by the community. Can't find the one you want? Write and publish your own.
