We bought the larger Yoto for our son when he was about 3 as a Christmas gift, but we honestly didn’t get much use out of it until now, just before age 4. Podcasts are really what got him hooked.... See more

Ordered product 10 days prior to…

Ordered product 10 days prior to granddaughter’s birthday and it didn’t arrive until 3 days after birthday. Couldn’t find any shipping info. Just poor communication.

Buying is fine, shipping sucks.

The buying experience was fine. Nothing great but nothing bad. The shipping though, we are at 16 days and my cards don't seem to have even shipped yet. The email says to use the
Shop app, and that app says it still hasn't gotten information from Yoto.

Hello Brenna,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

Your order was shipped using an untracked service.

Delivery typically takes around 3–5 business days, but on rare occasions it can take up to 10 business days.

Since this service doesn’t provide tracking, we’re not able to check its exact location, but it should be making its way to you.

Please keep an eye on your mailbox and any usual safe-place delivery spots.

If the parcel hasn’t arrived after 10 business days from the shipping date (May 22), please reach out to us, we’ll be happy to make this right.

Kind regards,
Yoto Customer Happiness Team

I still have not received my product…

Beware! I still have not received my product that I ordered over a month ago. Reached out to customer service, have not resolved issue.
And the yoto response below is the same message I have been receiving. I went back and checked my date of purchase and it has been a month now with my product being shipped out supposedly on May 18. It is now June. Yoto customer service sent me an email with my updated tracking (they use Amazon apparently) and it says May 19th was the last update, they are sorry it is running late and that is it. Over a month, no product, no one helping me resolve this issue, just the same response each time.

We've only had the player a week but…

We've only had the player a week but are obsessed. It's nice to not have to handover a phone for audio entertainment but he can manage the device himself and it's not always on headphones. He's also learning and hearing new stories each day.

Clunky App

We mostly use the app, not the cards, and it's so incredibly difficult and has been for years, ive complained directly multiple times and they've .
- doesn't show what's playing on the yoto
- shows nothing is playing (when it is), which means you can't control it remotely
- doesn't update the volume
- takes a really long time to update the volume/timer settings
- the points vs. credits system is confusing and it's not available on the app (neither is the full library)
We were also billed twice for the same product on the same account and email address (no checks, no notifying) for a number of months. Luckily we saw it and were able to query it, after a considerable amount of complaining they finally returned the money.

Its such a shame because the kids love listening to stories, but it's such a headache for the parents!

Easy to order and great idea

Easy to order. Great idea to reduce screen time. I would love it if the larger device could also show date and day to help with learning times and dates etc.

I love Yoto

I love Yoto! Every kid should have one! My son has learnt so much with the different cards we've bought him. He is 7 and can tell you all about the circulatory system! I love that it has Kids pod casts, radio, and we use the sleep sounds every single night. I HIGHLY recommend this to everyone with kids.

Couldn’t be better!

My favorite things after just one week with a Yoto player are:
- the ease of controlling it from either the device itself or the app
- price of the cards and the content included for that price
- how each card automatically downloads to the app, so we can play it in the car!

Met expectations.

Delivery took about a week to get to the destination, but it was delivered when stated. Our grandchildren are loving the stories we order. Discs are both entertaining and educational.
