About

Amuzzin

Features
Read full description

Amuzzin turns bedtime into a ritual you can rely on. Choose a narrated fable, follow along with the read-along text and full-screen artwork, and let a warm, unhurried voice carry your child to sleep. The library holds classic Aesop fables — The Tortoise and the Hare, The Lion and the Mouse, The Boy Who Cried Wolf and more — each three to five minutes long, and each ending with its moral said plainly. A STORY THAT ANSWERS BACK Open a tale and tap "Launch interactive story with my book". The book reads it aloud, stops the moment your child speaks, answers what they asked, then carries on where it left off. They can ask what a word means, ask for a different fable, or just talk to it. The microphone is open only while that session is on screen and closes when it ends — nothing is recorded. Every session is written down for you afterwards, in full, in Settings. STORIES THAT DON'T NEED A SIGNAL Save any story to the device and it plays with no connection at all — on a plane, in a car, or at the end of a hallway where the Wi-Fi gives up. Covers and the story list are cached as you browse, so the app opens instantly even offline. A CALMER WIND-DOWN Set a sleep timer and narration fades out after 5, 10, 15 or 20 minutes. Set a bedtime and Amuzzin counts down to it, with an optional daily reminder on the device. Playback continues on the lock screen with the story title and artwork, so the phone can go face-down on the nightstand. BEDTIME ON AN ECHO If you use the Amuzz In skill for Alexa, Amuzzin can start tonight's bedtime on your Echo, so the story can be told without a phone in the room. MADE FOR THE PARENT You hold the phone. Family profiles are yours to create and manage — a name, an emoji, a colour — and children never sign in or operate the app themselves. Pick a handwriting font and text size that suit the room's light. FREE, WITH AN OPTIONAL SUBSCRIPTION The library, offline saving, the sleep timer and the bedtime reminder are free. An optional Amuzzin Family subscription lengthens a session with My Book from one minute to fifteen, and a bedtime on Alexa from a single story to thirty minutes of them. It is offered monthly or yearly, at the price shown in the app before you buy, and renews until you cancel it in your App Store account. Terms of Use: https://amuzz.in/terms Privacy Policy: https://amuzz.in/privacy PRIVACY BY DESIGN - No ads, no tracking, no advertising identifiers - No targeted advertising to children - Stories, favourites and settings live on your device - Optional sync you can switch off entirely - Delete a profile or your whole account from inside the app - No camera or photo-library access — profile avatars are emoji - The microphone is used only while an interactive story with my book is open Notification permission is requested only if you turn on the bedtime reminder.
