Listen Only mode
No AR?
No problem.
Sometimes there’s no room to play AR — the back seat of the car, a hotel room, or the quiet minutes before sleep. Listen Only keeps Chuck reading, with the screen tucked away and just his voice and the story.

“I love the Elf, but the AR Storytime is amazing. My daughter loves The Little Mermaid. I can't believe it was the full version narrated on my TV! Highly recommend.”
“My boys absolutely love it. They especially love Story Time and being able to sit with the lovely Elf. Tasks and rewards are such a great motivator.”
Gino J. · Google Play review
“My kid was quite surprised hearing the messages, wondering how the elf knows! The elf reads books to your kids right in your house, right in their room.”
