Giant is the all-in-one entertainment app that brings your child into the story — literally. We turn a photo of your kid into a custom cartoon character in seconds, starting them on a journey of personalized adventures with their very own Giant character. You can do the same for the whole family, so everyone becomes part of the fun.
With personalized shows, live chats with favorite characters, and interactive storybook adventures, Giant turns screen time into connection time. Whether your child is watching themselves save the day, sharing a giggle with a talking capybara, or diving into a choose-your-own adventure, Giant makes every moment interactive, safe, and full of joy.
SHOWTIME
Your child is the star. With ShowTime, kids become the heroes of their very own personalized animated shows. Each story adapts to your child's name, avatar, and interests, making every episode feel truly magical. ShowTime weaves social-emotional learning into every tale, with life lessons about empathy, friendship, and resilience told through fun, engaging adventures.
TALKTIME
Chat with favorite characters in real time. With TalkTime, your child can have natural, back-and-forth voice conversations with beloved Giant characters. Whether it is inventing something silly with Milo the Mouse or getting a pep talk from the confidence-boosting Princess Pia, TalkTime reinforces learning through meaningful live engagement. These conversations help build emotional vocabulary, self-confidence, and conversational curiosity.
STORYTIME
Every story starts with your child's imagination. Draw a world, watch it come to life in 3D, then make choices that shape where the adventure goes. StoryTime is a playable, dynamic story experience where every decision opens a new chapter. Kids can also dive into the worlds of their favorite Giant shows and explore new chapters, unlocking stories that unfold differently every time.

My 8 year old son has struggled with speech delay and has taken years of speech therapy to work on how he pronounces certain letters and sounds. His speech delay hurt his confidence and made it harder to communicate with others. He struggled to express his emotions, leading to difficulty regulating those emotions and frequent outbursts. This app has given him a new way to “socialize” by interacting with different characters and learning to build off those interactions. He was entertained by being able to create and customize his own character, and really enjoyed the customized stories the app created based on our goals and his interests. Overall I think this is a great tool for children and parents to work on emotional goals in a creative and engaging way.
Misleading subscription service.
HonestMamaReviews
My son absolutely loved this app, and for a long time I would have happily given it 5 stars.I completely understand that apps cost money to develop and maintain, and I have no issue with companies moving to a subscription model. In fact, I was willing to pay $9.99 per month because I wanted to support an app that my son, who is on the spectrum, genuinely enjoyed.What I didn’t realize is that the subscription doesn’t appear to provide any meaningful benefit on its own. The only thing it seems to do is unlock the ability to purchase stars, which cannot be purchased without first paying for the subscription. In other words, you’re paying a monthly fee for the privilege of spending even more money.We’ve spent a considerable amount on stars, and to make matters worse, the app frequently glitches. We’ve had stars disappear after purchasing them, only to reopen the app later and find our balance back at zero. That means money was spent and the stars were simply gone.The subscription model feels unfair and misleading. I was happy to pay for premium access, but I expected the subscription itself to include some real value. Instead, it feels like an additional fee layered on top of ongoing in-app purchases.This app had the potential to be great, and it used to be. But between the subscription requirement, the constant need to purchase additional stars, and the glitches that cause purchased stars to disappear, I can no longer recommend it.
Developer Response
We hear you, and we're truly sorry, both for the frustration with a subscription that didn't feel like it delivered value, and for the stars that vanished after you paid for them. That's not how Giant is meant to work. We've fixed the issue causing purchased stars to disappear. We keep Giant ad-free through subscriptions, and we appreciate feedback so we can continue to build the best experience for families. We reached out to you directly about this, and that offer still stands, please email support@giant.org whenever you're ready. Thank you for telling us, it's exactly the kind of feedback that helps us improve Giant.
Best kids app
JaysterSB
So so impressed by this app! My son wakes up every morning asking to talk to his characters. His verbal skills have exploded since using the app. It’s also very enjoyable to join in and make it something we do together. The daily stories provide background and personality to the many integrated characters and Then the talk time doubles down and allows my child to communicate and play with these characters, deepening the character development. I woke up the other morning with my son doing a scavenger hunt with one of the characters. The app is polished and intelligently designed with safety and privacy in mind. Really looking forward to seeing what’s next. It’s an app we use every day.
Developer Response
Thank you for such a detailed review! Hearing about verbal skills growing alongside the daily conversations, plus getting to join in yourselves, is exactly what we hope for.
Hands-down best kid app I’ve found
Dalpal2025
I don’t usually leave reviews, but this app is amazing. I downloaded it on a whim for my niece/nephew and it’s the only app they keep coming back to without getting bored in 5 minutes. It somehow manages to be educational and genuinely entertaining with super thoughtfully designed games that feel age-appropriate but still engaging. With other apps they’re zoning out and glazed over but Giant has them laughing and problem solving.Also: so refreshing that it doesn’t feel like a cash grab with ads /pop-ups. Whoever made this clearly gets kids. Highly recommend if you’re trying to keep screen time high-quality instead of just distracting.
