Looking for an app where I can read my own stories
I’m using it for a couple of stories, but am really looking for an app where I can read some of my children’s favourites to them while I’m away on business. I’ll use Tell for the trial and then finish. Will my links to stories still work I wonder?
I have a concern
Is this aap safe??
It wonderful
This app is so useful a
Not working
iPad Pro 2020 with iPadOS 13.5. Signed up with email address and app locked. Closed app and reopened and still stuck on opening page. What a waste of time that was.
Love the idea
Absolutely love the app and the idea. I dislike that it’s a subscription as over a long period of time this really adds up. It would be much better to be able to buy individual stories and have those to keep. The subscription has put me off using the app as I don’t want to be locked into keeping my family’s recordings.
Awesome family app
I’ve created a storytelling group for the whole family who is split between USA, UK and France. Amazing to hear grandparents tell stories to the kids from so far away and even cousins record funny stories for each other! A great way to keep in touch, and an awesome family activity.
Not for the Deaf friendly
I accidentally to downloaded it but I still have to pay for a year!!! It forces me to use the free trail then pay for a year! Crazy! This is not for Deaf friendly cos I am deaf and cannot speak for the stories! Please can I cancelled the payment?
Probably very good
My first review was unfair so I’m editing it in the light of info from the developers. I’ll sign up to the free trial and see what happens. Then I’ll report back.

This is such an amazing app! My mum just recently thought of reading Russian stories to my two young daughters over whats app! Now she can download the app and simply record them for my two to listen to stories here in London before they go to sleep without worrying about time difference! The stories can be read in Russian language as well as in English! Great idea, great app! Well done!!
Sounds good
This app sounds good and looks good and I bet it took a long time to make the app 🤩🤩🤩 From Henrietta
Lovely idea!
This is a lovely idea and great for when you can’t be there to read to a child in person. The stories are well chosen and beautifully illustrated.
Great idea!
We love this app
My grandma’s reading club
I love using TELL with my grandma, she uses the app to send all of us grandkids a new story each week! Sometimes it’s a fairy tale she finds in the app, sometimes it’s a book she likes (and she adds pictures with her camera ), or sometimes she makes up her own stories, my favourite! Last week she made a story with lots of old family pictures from when she was young. So cool, the stories are there forever.
Exactly what I was looking for!
During lockdown, I’ve been unable to see my niece and nephew of whom I’d normally take care of at least once per week. I’d usually read to them before putting them to bed and have missed this terribly! This app is easy to use and has allowed us to feel that little closer together during difficult times - brilliant!
Beautiful concept and well made app!
What a great idea and especially in lockdown times but also can continue to be used after this is over. Giving other family members and friends a chance to connect with the children.
