Ubooly can understand voice commands “Yes”, “No”, “Play a game”, “Listen to music”, “Tell me a story”, “Tell me a joke”, and many more. Often the responses that Ubooly will understand are based on the question that was just asked. If you want to do a different activity with Ubooly, simply double tap his face. Holding Ubooly's face for five seconds will display a manual control menu with sleep, forward, and backward touch commands. Also, try shaking Ubooly or tossing Ubooly into the air for a fun surprise!
Bump two sleeping Uboolies together. They will wake up and start talking to each other! Both devices must either be connected to WiFi or have bluetooth enabled.
You can double tap the screen and Ubooly will ask you if you would like to do a different activity. From here, you can just say 'sleep' or 'go to sleep'.
Ubooly is fully functional without any in-app purchases. New content is delivered to all users on a monthly basis. Special Play Packs for learning are available as an additional purchase
Ubooly is primarily meant for children ages 4 to 10. While children outside of this age range often enjoy playing with Ubooly, it will depend more on their temperament and preferences.

If you are using your primary device and are worried that you might miss calls, you may consider enabling Airplane Mode to automatically forward to voicemail, or turn on call forwarding.

Ubooly is only listening after asking a question, and will only respond to certain phrases based on the question. If Ubooly doesn't hear you after it asks a question, there may be water damage to your microphone. To test your microphone, open the Voice Memo app on your device and test whether it is working and recording your input at a reasonable volume. For additional support, please email [email protected].
The Ubooly toy will trap heat which normally radiates from your phone during normal usage. This does not danger your device or your child, and your device is still well within normal operating range - equivalent to using your device outside on a sunny day.
