Lunii, free to think and imagine The Lunii app is there for every moment your children spend listening. From your phone, you can manage Ma 1ère Lunii, Ma Fabrique à Histoires and FLAM, add new audiobooks to their library, record your own stories and much more! CREATE OR LOG IN TO YOUR LUNII ACCOUNT This is where a great adventure begins! Create your Lunii account in a few minutes, or log in with your details to pair and set up your Lunii devices. OVER 500 INTERACTIVE AUDIOBOOKS TO EXPLORE Our stories are created or selected by Les Éditions Lunii, an editorial team that has built its own expertise: "made in Lunii" creation. Whether made in-house or with partners, every story shares the same belief: the child is at the heart of the action. They don't just listen passively. They make the choices. Each story is designed to build their independence, creativity and critical thinking. Listen to samples with your children and let them choose. Save their favourites to a wish list, so you can surprise them when the time is right. MANAGE YOUR LUNII DEVICES With Ma 1ère Lunii, Ma Fabrique à Histoires model 3 or FLAM, everything is managed from the app: Add or remove audiobooks and transfer them to the device over Wi-Fi. Choose the order in which stories appear. Set up Night Mode (limited volume, stories played back to back, audio prompt turned off) so your child can drift off to sleep, one story after another. MON STUDIO LUNII: YOUR FAMILY'S OWN STORIES With Ma Fabrique à Histoires, children become authors. Make your own audiobooks together: Record your stories, jokes or songs with the voices of the whole family. Transfer up to 30 minutes of recordings at a time to your storyteller, as often as you like. Illustrate them with our pictograms. A SPACE YOU CAN TRUST During listening, Lunii devices work with no internet, no ads and no algorithms. Your children stay free to think and imagine, with complete peace of mind. The whole world of Lunii is waiting for you at www.lunii.com
