How-to
Every step, with the screen
Short guides, each with the real app beside the words. Most take under three minutes.
Recording
Record your first book
The whole thing is a book, a page and a red button. Here's the walk from an empty shelf to a published recording.
Record a book for a specific child
Every recording starts with one question. Most people miss it. Here's what it changes.
Retake a page
Fluffed the last line? Record that one page again. Every other kept take stays exactly as it was.
Hear an example before you read a page
Not sure how the page goes? One tap plays a finished take of it, then hands the microphone back.
Put music under a recording
Every published recording has a sound sheet. That's where the artist chooses a bed, or none.
Open a book to your recording artists
The shelf is the artists' permission list. A book on it is a book anyone in the family can record.
Listening & playlists
Listen without the screen
The story without the pages. For bedtime, the car and small speakers.
Build a bedtime playlist
Three books in order is a routine. Save it and it's waiting next week.
Put one bed of music under a whole playlist
One mood for the evening, whatever each recording had.
Pair a smart TV
A TV has no keyboard, so it never asks for one. It shows a code; a phone approves it.
Your family
Invite Grandma and Grandpa to record
People are always free. An invitation is an email; whoever opens it is a recording artist for your family.
Add another admin
Admins run the family — shelf, plan, PIN, invitations. Recording artists only record. Both are free and unlimited.
Add a child's profile
A child is a first name and a photo. No email, no password, nothing asked of them.
Set a parent PIN
Settings, billing, recording and invitations sit behind a gate. Here's how to close it.
Lend a recording to another family
A grandparent with two sets of grandchildren records a book once and lends it to both.
Being apart
Classrooms
Open a classroom
A classroom is a family with a classroom attached — free, ten books to start, unlimited once five homes connect.
Send take-home slips
Every seat gets a slip. A parent scans it and hears your voice at bedtime.
Connect your child to their classroom
A slip came home in the book bag. Here's what it opens.
