Kids’Player

“Thank you, papa... papa-pa-papa-pa-pa-pa!!!” - N.

Kids love music. Kids love touch devices. They love music players on touch devices. They love touching all these music player buttons. Songs skip, playlists switch. Standard MP3 players are just too complicated. They’re great for grown-ups, but not for them — the toddlers. The little ones.

Kids’Player is built around a simple idea: Keep it minimal. Chances are your kids can’t even read yet, so we did away with playlists. Kids’Player is purely album-based, cover-only, no text or tracks, just playback buttons — even 2-year olds can operate it.

Kids’Player is also great for separating your kids’ music from your own. It uses a single, pre-defined playlist from your iTunes Library: Set it up to include your children’s audio files only, and your own music will never interfere with their juvenile Audio Books or singalongs.

Features:

• Swipe left/right to select an album by cover
• Play/Pause button
• Back/Forward button (looped, last ◊ first)
• Display of track number
• That’s it

Setup:

• Create a playlist in iTunes
• Put in your kids’ music, audio books etc.
• Sync with iPhone or iPod touch
• Start Kids’Player
• Select the kids’ playlist
• Hand over the device...

If you ever want to switch playlists, you can access Kids’Player preferences in your device’s Settings application.

Have fun!
