iPhone app for kids 4–8 · beta

Your child's drawing comes alive.

Print a coloring page, color it together and take a photo. The animal from the drawing moves into a 3D ocean or savanna, says hello and plays with your child, wearing exactly the colors they chose.

The colored fish swimming in the app's 3D ocean, saying “Psst! I found a bubble treasure!”
The fish coloring card from the app

your colors

From paper to the sea in three steps

  1. 1

    Print a coloring page

    Pick one of eight animal cards in the app: fish, turtle, crab, dolphin, jellyfish, octopus, elephant or zebra. Print it at actual size.

  2. 2

    Color it any way you like

    Purple stripes, rainbow fins, a polka-dot crab: every color your child chooses ends up on the animal.

  3. 3

    Take a photo and meet the friend

    Photograph the whole card with the app. The friend appears in the ocean or on the savanna, gets a name and greets your child.

    The app's first screen: “Hi! Who will bring the ocean to life today?”

Every friend has a personality

Friends speak with real recorded voices, in English or Polish, following the phone's language. Captions appear on screen, so early readers can follow along. Nothing is generated live and nothing goes online.

Explorer

Curious and cheerful. Always finds a new place to explore.

“Hey! Guess what? I found a new place to explore!”

Cuddler

Gentle and calm. Loves slow swims and quiet moments.

“I'm wearing your colors. They feel so cozy.”

Giggler

Goofy and ticklish. Mixes up fins and claws on purpose.

“I've got a new joke… I forgot it!”

Two worlds to visit

The ocean scene with buttons Pet, Bubbles, Dance and Picnic

The ocean

Up to 20 friends: fish, turtles, crabs, dolphins, jellyfish and octopuses. Tickle them, catch bubbles together, dance, lead a friend with a finger or throw an underwater picnic.

A zebra on the savanna: “Stripes: I discovered a green treat!”

The savanna

An elephant and a zebra roam the grass. Tap the ground to drop a leaf and watch your friend come over to eat it.

Decorate the seabed, look back at shared adventures in the album, or show the ocean on your TV with AirPlay while the iPhone works as a remote.

Real play sessions

We're recording short sessions of children meeting their own pals. They'll appear here and on our YouTube channel soon.
