Coins are used to create stories and generate audio narration. You earn coins through your subscription or can purchase coin packs. Different story lengths and features use different amounts of coins.

How does audio narration work?

After creating a story, tap the audio button to generate narration. Choose from Standard or Premium voice options. Audio stories are great for bedtime or on-the-go listening!

Account & Privacy

How do you keep my child's data safe?

We take privacy seriously. We share non-personal story creation data (age range, reading preferences, character descriptions, and custom story instructions) with Google Vertex AI for story generation, and story text with Google Cloud Text-to-Speech for audio narration — never real names or personal identifiers, and never with advertisers. Users provide explicit consent before any data is shared. We comply with COPPA regulations. Parents have full control over account settings through PIN protection.

How do I set up the parental PIN?

The parental PIN protects sensitive settings like account management and purchases. Go to Settings and tap Set Up PIN. Choose a 4-digit code that only you as the parent will know.

How do I delete my account?

Go to Settings, then Account, and select Delete Account. You'll have a 30-day grace period during which you can change your mind. After that, all data including stories and profiles will be permanently removed.

How do I reset my password?

On the login screen, tap Forgot Password and enter your email address. We'll send you a reset link. If you're already logged in, you can change your password in Settings under Account.

Characters & Customization

How do I create a character?

Go to the Characters section and tap Create. Follow the step-by-step wizard to name your character, choose their age, gender, type, and personality traits. Your characters will appear in stories you create!

What are character traits and how do they affect stories?

Character traits like brave, kind, curious, or funny shape how your character behaves in stories. The AI weaves these traits into the narrative, making each story feel unique and true to your character's personality!

How many characters can I create?

You can create multiple characters and build your own character library. Each character can be reused across different stories, so your favorite heroes can go on endless adventures!

Can I use my characters in multiple stories?

Absolutely! Your characters are saved in your character library and can be selected for any new story you create. Mix and match characters across different genres and themes for fresh adventures every time.

Troubleshooting

My story is taking too long to generate

Story generation usually takes 2-3 minutes depending on length and illustrations. If it's taking longer, check your internet connection and try again. Longer stories with more illustrations naturally take more time.

Audio narration isn't working

First, make sure your device isn't on silent mode and the volume is turned up. Check that you have a stable internet connection. If the issue persists, try clearing the audio cache in Settings or contact our support team.

The app isn't working. What should I do?

Try closing and reopening the app, or restart your device. If the issue persists, contact us at [email protected] with details about the problem.
