PlayTales: Audiobooks for Kids

New: you decide how long they listen. Daily and weekly limits behind your PIN – plus “ten more minutes” or “no limit today” for long car journeys.

PlayTales plays the audio plays and audiobooks on Apple Music in a way kids can manage on their own – while you still decide how long they listen. The stories themselves need an Apple Music subscription.

WHAT PLAYTALES DOES FOR YOUR FAMILY

• Peace and quiet on the back seat: with no signal, PlayTales shows and plays whatever Apple Music has downloaded, and with CarPlay, favourites and recently played sit right on the car's screen. (Offline view and CarPlay with Pro) • Bedtime without anyone getting up: the sleep timer stops the story after 5 to 60 minutes – or right at the end of the episode. • You decide how long: daily and weekly limits, guarded by your PIN. For long car journeys there's “ten more minutes” or “no limit today”. • Kids listen on their own: big, colourful covers instead of menus, and PlayTales can read the titles aloud – even for kids who can't read yet. • Pick up where they left off: to the second, and through iCloud from iPhone to iPad. • And when the story ends? Stop, repeat or play the next album – your choice. • Nothing to get lost in: search can be switched off, and the settings sit behind your PIN or a math task. • “Play … in PlayTales”: with Siri, Shortcuts or straight from Spotlight search.

PLAYTALES PRO A one-time purchase, not a subscription: unlimited favourites (three without Pro), CarPlay, the offline view and no adverts. Parental controls are included for everyone at no extra cost.

PRIVACY No account, no sign-in. How long your child listens is counted on the device only and never sent anywhere.

I built PlayTales for my own children. Happy listening!
