Setting up your Ubooly app.
Setting up the app was very simple. Once you have downloaded the app and created an account, you can start to set up profiles for each child that will be using Ubooly.
Each profile is customizable and Ubooly will know your child’s name, age, favourite colour and interests.

Ubooly will adapt to how your child plays. Ubooly will figure out which activities your child likes the most, and avoids the ones that they don’t.
My kids really enjoyed playing with Ubooly. They really enjoyed when it would prompted them to throw him in the air. There was lots of laughter from them once they heard Ubooly enjoying it also. There were definitely a few times where Ubooly was droped while this was going on, but my Ipad stayed safe and snug inside of Ubooly.
Ubooly will ask your child simple questions like “Do you want to sing a song?” and recognizes if your child says yes or no. My 3 year old really loved answering Ubooly’s questions. I found that he played with it a lot longer than most of his other toys.
