One press runs the shot
Type the name
Add each child's name first. About 1,550 UK names are recorded for each talking character.
Hold it up
Phone above your head, next to the lens. The child watches the character, so they look straight at you.
Fire on "one"
The countdown is your shutter cue and their game.
What the child hears
- "Eddie!"
- "Eyes up here!"
- "Three… two… one…"
- "Well done, Eddie!"
A recorded voice calls the name. Nothing is synthesised on the phone, and every customer hears the same voice.
Who does the calling
Flower Princess 
Princess Blue 
Monkey 
Tractor 
Pirate 
T-Rex 
Bee 
Puppy
Eight characters. The Pirate has a wooden leg and a parrot. Bee and Puppy make sounds instead of talking. Shake the phone to swap between them.
Built for a quiet church
Quiet until you say so
Sound is off every time the app opens, so nothing blares out during the service.
Fully offline
Everything is in the app. No account, no tracking, no ads.
Locked against small fingers
A screen lock hides the buttons, so a curious child can't tap out.
£6.99, paid once
No subscription. iPhone first, Android later. Coming soon to the App Store.
