The Ideal Witness
#Crime · by maxouu_
The police put out a call for witnesses. Me? I already know what I'll say: I lied. I sent the investigators toward the station, far from where Julien really went. It was working. Until Captain Vasseur: she asks the same question twice, in different words. She isn't looking for answers. She's looking for cracks. And she's called me back in.
Vasseur calls you back in. What do you do?
Same time. Same jacket. Same bag. Good liars never change a thing…
Moved
A slightly different time. A less certain jacket. A hazier memory. In the moment, it seemed reasonable…
Curious
Which one saves you?The rest plays out in the app.

Every category has its own colour, type and mood.
A crime story doesn't look like a romance. The title, the palette, even the typeface shift with the world.
Real screenshots, August 2026. The stories are written in French and translated on your phone.
What you get.
Your choice, your ending
The story stops and asks you to decide. Two options, one continuation: the one you take closes the other.
A whole story, in one sitting
A few bubbles, not six hundred pages. One sitting, no bookmark.
React with what you actually feel
No like button: you leave an emo, the emotion the story left you with. Whoever wrote it learns what it set off, not just how many people opened it.
Read in your language
One button and the story flips into your language, right on your phone. Automatic translation: the original stays up until it's ready.
Your story can start here too
Write at your own pace, publish when you're ready, and see what your readas felt, not just how many there were. How writing works, or start from a writing prompt.

Frequently asked
Is it free?
Yes. No subscription, nothing to pay to read. You'll see ads in the feed.
Is content moderated?
Yes. Every published telly goes through an automated filter. Reports are reviewed and can lead to removal. See our child-safety policy.
What's a “telly”?
A Tellyah interactive story: you read it, but at each step your choices steer what happens next, all the way to an ending that's yours.
How long is a story?
It depends on the telly and on your choices: every path has its own length. Perfect when you no longer have hours to read.
Why isn't the iPhone app on the App Store?
The iPhone version is still in beta: it ships through TestFlight, Apple's official beta app. Install on iPhone.
Who can read my stories?
You alone, unless you decide to share them. Publishing is a choice you make when you're ready.
Do I own my stories?
Yes. You own your texts. Tellyah only holds the limited license required to let you publish and share through the app. Details in the terms of use.
Your story starts here.
Your readers tell you what they felt. Not a counter, an emotion.
