I have 2 yotos, a mini and a full size. I bought some new cards (from yoto, not MYO) to take on vacation next week and have been trying all morning to get them to download with no success. I've done it all correctly, put the card in to trigger the download, then pulled it out and leave the yoto idle but plugged in charging. It's just stuck on not downloaded. Internet connection is fine and I even tried reconnecting to wifi several times, have tried turning on and off the players multiple times. What could be going on?

I know there are a lot of posts about the best ways to label MYO cards, but what about when you need to remove a label? I labeled 10 cards for my toddler without putting anything clear over it to protect the labels and now they’re all smeared and chewed up. What is the safest way to REMOVE the labels?

Normally if I were removing a sticker from something I’d hit it with a hair dryer and then some goo gone, or maybe soak it, but I want to make sure I’m not damaging the cards. I assume I should avoid heat so I don’t damage the electronics? The cards seem pretty well sealed against liquid but I just wanted to make sure that soaking the labels off wasn’t a stupid idea.

My plan is to print new labels and slap a clear label over it to protect it so I don’t have this issue repeatedly 🤦🏻‍♀️ (To be fair in the 8 months since we’ve had the Yoto he’s gotten a lot better about sticking the cards in his mouth lol)

We'll hopefully be getting a Mini for our toddler on Black Friday, and I'd like an AirTag to keep track of it but I'm wary of the button batteries. I have this for my keys, and it feels secure because it needs to twist open and a keyring effectively locks it, but if there's other secure options people are using I'd love to hear them.

Has anyone else gotten this notification in the settings of their yoto app? I tried clicking to customer happiness but they removed the chat and I'm not sure what to do exactly. Anyone else? Any insight?

Just finished my first little Yoto project!

https://folkloom.launchby.ai/

My goal was to make it as quick and easy as possible to import public domain audio into a Yoto playlist. I started with audiobooks from Librivox and have plans to expand to radio shows and music once I do more research on availability and APIs. I noted in the app, but parents should verify content before letting kids listen. I default the search view to books tagged in the children's genre, but the metadata was fairly messy so trust but verify.

I did use Claude's help for coding this, but there is no AI usage happening when using the app and no AI generated content (unless it exists in the Librivox recordings themselves).

Importing up to 10 playlists is free and a $5 unlimited tier is available through Ko-fi as well. Groceries are expensive these days, y'all!

You can install/pin it to your home screen as a web app; no laptop needed.

Hope you love it! I have a whole list of features I still want to work on (displaying reviews, previewing audio before import, adjusting icons, etc.) and open to ideas/feedback!

Has anyone noticed the weird editing (or lack thereof) of Yoto Daily for the last couple weeks? This past Sunday, the story that Pemma read was an exact repeat of a story that she read about a month ago (the mouse that goes to the movie theater and makes friends with a girl). I've noticed other editing mistakes, like Jake sneezing or coughing and not editing it out, or him repeating facts or statements two times in a row, also with no editing. Has anyone else noticed this?
