The parent area now opens on every iPad On an iPad with no lock-screen passcode — often the family iPad — the parent area stayed shut: no daily time limit, no stats, no profile management. It now asks for a 4-digit parent code, chosen once and kept in the device's Keychain. Where Face ID is available, nothing changes. Two new rows in the parent area • Rate Laby Kids, straight in the App Store • Contact the developer by email — we read everything, and we reply Still one single purchase, no ads, no subscription, no account, no internet.

A new face for Laby Kids. • A brand-new app icon: the treasure chest the three games are all about. • The home screen carries that same artwork, and the three game buttons are redrawn to match. The games themselves are unchanged. Still no ads, no subscriptions, no internet, no data collected. One purchase, endless play.

Laby Kids 2.0 — a whole new look, and a real limit on screen time. REDESIGNED FROM THE GROUND UP • New colours, new boards, new animations. Every maze is now a carved path the child follows to the treasure. • Seven new sounds for taps, correct answers, mistakes and wins — all silenced with a single switch. A DAILY PLAY-TIME LIMIT • Set a limit per child in the parent space (10 to 60 minutes a day). • When the time is up, the game closes on its own. • Five more minutes? The parent grants them with Face ID, Touch ID or the device passcode. Children cannot lift the limit on their own. • The dashboard shows today's play time against the limit. LABY WORD NOW PLAYS LIKE LABY MATH • One corridor from the pawn to the treasure, one live cell at a time, marked by the same golden ring. • No more wandering: children always know where to tap next. BETTER ON iPad • In landscape, Laby Turn and Laby Word get the settings column and the full-size board Laby Math already had. • Levels, difficulty and the sound switch are all reachable without opening a sheet. PROFILES • A child's age can now be added, next to their name and colour. ACCESSIBILITY • VoiceOver labels on every cell and control, Dynamic Type throughout, and Reduce Motion respected everywhere. FIXES • The Laby Math board could stop responding to touch after the first sum. • The Laby Turn win screen jumped as it appeared. • The sound switch was invisible on some screens. • The parent dashboard blanked out when switching child. Still no ads, no in-app purchases, no account and no data collection.

Important fix: in Laby Math, the board stopped responding to taps after the first solved calculation, forcing you to quit and restart the game. Fixed — you can now play straight through to the treasure. Win confetti now respects the Reduce Motion setting on iPhone and iPad.

The Laby Kids App Store page is now available in all six languages the app supports: English, French, Spanish, German, Italian and Portuguese.

Fixed a bug in Laby Math where the Home button and the level, operation, and new-maze controls didn't respond to touch on iPad. Everything works with a finger now.
