It is quite large and bulky, and we sometimes had trouble connecting it to our wifi. You have to provide the content; you can’t buy stories etc. Read more about the Jooki audio player in our review here. The Jooki children’s audio player is not currently available to buy in the UK. The TIMIO

You can also use the app change the volume and display settings, visit the card store, read news and troubleshoot. Your library is stored in your app so that if you happen to lose or snap a card (I would imagine this is very hard as they’re similar to credit cards, but you know kids…) you can play it directly from the app.One of my favourite features, unique to the Yoto Player, is the additional free content. The daily podcast and Yoto Radio can be accessed by one or two presses of the right hand button when the card slot is empty. (You can change how this is access via the app). The Yoto Player box is fairly compact, made from hard plastic with a rubber bottom and a simple pixel display on the front. It can be positioned in a number of ways – on the base, tilted or down on its front as above. the strange part is where you will have to register and give some of your data to them. Without this you can't use the product at all. It gets worse. Then you need to give location permissions and only then you can configure the wifi on the product.. Yes the wifi. The software is constantly being updated and improved meaning it should get better over time, for free – and last a lot longer, growing with your child. From the Jooki app, parents will be able to connect Jooki to a new Wi-Fi network (Jooki will remember up to 8 networks), connect Jooki to a wireless headset or speaker, enable or disable the volume limitation compatible with 3-year-old toy safety standards, and turn off Jooki remotely.

The parents loved it...so much the father commandeered one of the tokens just for his favorite podcast! Their nanny was head over heels about it, so much so that she was telling all her other clients about it. Everyone really liked that it came with five tokens and not just two or three(the tokens are such cute figurines!). Also a big hit was that it was so flexible about music sources. That you could load up a micro-sd card so that you didn't need wifi, but also it could play online playlists and podcasts from Spotify and not some proprietary service.

You access the Bluetooth speaker by changing the settings in the Yoto Player app to allow bluetooth pairing and following the instructions (press left hand button in for three seconds to pair). Both ‘boxes’ are easy to use and intuitive for smaller kids. The toniebox is softer, so good for toddlers. It also looks nice and comes in a range of colours to suit any child’s bedroom. However the Yoto Player does everything that the toniebox does, and more.I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them, and have done to my own family and friends.
