## What is Echo Storybooks?

Listen together. Take a turn reading aloud. Echo Storybooks makes family storytime easier with narrated picture books and gentle encouragement to join in. Pick 2 books to enjoy for free, as often as you like.

READ ALOUD, ONE LINE AT A TIME
Listen to a line, then try reading it aloud. Earn stars and get gentle encouragement along the way. If a line feels tricky, try it just once more, then move on with the story. You don't have to get every word right.

LET THE APP DO THE READING
Ready for a break from reading aloud? Choose Listen mode and enjoy the story together. Follow the illustrations and highlighted text as the narration plays and pages turn automatically. No microphone access is needed to listen.

ONE QUESTION TO GET YOU TALKING
Each book ends with one simple picture-based question about the story. Think back on what happened, choose an answer, and talk about it together.

FIND A COMFORTABLE READING LEVEL
Explore original stories about animals, everyday life, feelings, nature, and little adventures. English and Japanese have separate reading levels. Recommendations can adjust based on recent read-aloud activity. Parents can also set a level manually or turn off automatic adjustment.

YOUR 2 CHOSEN BOOKS STAY FREE
Choose any 2 picture books to keep unlocked for unlimited free listening and read-aloud practice, with no Premium subscription required. Each story is available in English and Japanese. Choosing a book unlocks both versions together.

SIMPLE FAMILY STORYTIME
No ads, social features, chat, or public posting. Read-aloud practice uses the microphone; listening does not. Purchases, restoring purchases, and opening external links are for adults to handle. See our privacy policy for details about how data is handled.

PREMIUM
Premium unlocks the full storybook library. Monthly, 3-month and annual auto-renewing plans are available. Prices are shown by the App Store before purchase. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account subscription settings.
