For grown-ups, about Little Meadow

  • When will Little Meadow be out?

    We don’t have a date yet. Leave your email and we’ll write once, when it’s ready.

  • How much will it cost?

    We haven’t set a price. When we do, it will be stated plainly here, not hinted at.

  • What will it run on?

    Little Meadow is being made for iPhone, iPad and Android, and it is designed around a tablet held in two small hands.

  • How do I get into the grown-up area?

    From the title page. It asks for the birth year you chose when you first set it up, typed on the app’s own keypad. Inside are profiles, play time and the weekly note.

  • How do I set a daily limit?

    In the grown-up area, under Play time. Choose no limit, or 10, 15, 20, 30, 45 or 60 minutes a day, for each child separately.

  • What happens when the limit is reached?

    Your child can finish the game they’re in. Then the meadow rests until the next day, and their friend says goodnight. Nothing is lost, and the shelf is exactly where it was left.

  • Can it be played with the sound off?

    Yes — every game works without sound. Background music and sound effects have separate controls on the title screen. With sound on, the guide reads hints aloud, which helps children who can’t read yet.

  • Why did yesterday’s stars disappear?

    On purpose. Stars reset each night so there is nothing to protect or grind back. Games your child has opened stay open.

  • How do I remove all of our data?

    Delete the app on iPhone or iPad, or clear its storage in Android settings. Everything is kept on the device, so that removes it. The privacy notice has the detail.

We’re setting up a support inbox before launch. Until then there isn’t an address to write to, and we’d rather say so than print one nobody reads.
