Yoto: Music, Stories, Sleep

Screen-free audio for children

Yoto: Music, Stories, Sleep is an entertainment app for parents using a Yoto Player, bringing children’s stories, music, podcasts and sleep audio together without making video the centre of the experience. Its strongest reason to notice it is the control it gives adults over a child-focused audio setup.

What parents can manage

The app works as a companion remote for the Yoto Player. Parents can set volume limits, configure alarms, choose day or night settings, and control features such as the player’s night-light. Where supported by the hardware, it also provides room temperature information, making the phone useful for more than choosing what to play.

Useful beyond the living room

Android Auto support makes the audio library practical for family journeys, while custom voice recordings let parents and relatives add their own messages or stories. Sleep sounds and other bedtime audio give the app a clear role in evening routines, rather than treating children’s listening as general-purpose streaming.

Why it stands out

Yoto suits families who want stories and music with fewer screens and more parental boundaries. It can also play audio directly through the app, but its notable value is the combination of a child-oriented library and remote controls for the associated player. The app is published by Yoto and has a 4.65/5 rating from 4,019 reviews, with 500,000+ installs.
