What if you could star in your child's favorite bedtime story? With Zoog, you can. Record yourself reading - playful visual effects applied automatically turn you into the animated hero your child will ask for again and again.
IT STARTS WITH A SPARK
For the youngest kids, Zoog turns something familiar - your face and your voice - into their very own personalized story. As you read, Zoog's AR transforms you into the characters and shifts the scene around you, so you become the wolf, the princess, the friendly monster, page after page. Your toddler looks up, eyes wide. That is Mom, right there in the story. That is Grandpa. That flash of recognition is where a love of reading is born.
IT GROWS INTO A RITUAL
As your child gets older, reading together turns into the part of the day you both look forward to. You step into the same story side by side, both of you in costume. This is not a child watching alone. It is the two of you, inside the story together, until they ask you to read it again.
IT BECOMES A HABIT
One day your child opens Zoog on their own. They pick a story from our ever-growing library, finish a chapter, and reach for the next one, with new stories and worlds always waiting. The child who once needed you to start the story is now the one saying just one more chapter. And they can share every story they finish with the grown-ups who love them, so a parent at work, a grandparent far away, or a military family across an ocean gets to watch their little reader grow. This is the whole point: a child who reads because they want to.
WHY FAMILIES LOVE ZOOG
Reading together early is one of the best things you can do for a child's development, and Zoog turns it into the part of the day everyone looks forward to. Rated 4.9 stars by more than 300,000 parents, grandparents, and educators, Zoog makes that closeness possible for any family, whether you are in the next room or across an ocean.

My granddaughters are 2 and 6 years old! They LOVE this app! They live over 2,000 miles away and I was able to visit them recently. They watched the stories I made every single day and the 2 year old kept saying, “again, again, again”! When I got home from my visit, I sent a story the very next day. They were so excited and were begging their parents to watch the story immediately! This is such an amazing app to stay close to each other even if you live far from away! So glad I discovered this app! Another thing they loved—when I was with them, I let them make some songs on the app. They had so much fun doing this. My 6 year old granddaughter was literally rolling around on the ground, laughing hysterically when she watched the video she made! Such a fun, bonding experience. I immediately subscribed to the 1 year subscription. Thank you!

This is really good for kids to have and enjoy they can have this forever it can be saved because unfortunately, I lost my mother at a early age. I was only 18 when my mother passed so all my children never got to meet or see or have any pictures of their grandmother, which is my mom she only had a couple pictures they didn’t get destroyed. I was able to show them when they were born now their children can’t have any memories of their grandmother no videos not no pictures so they don’t even know what she looks like or generations to come can have this with cell phones memory, and now the story time with this would be great. My grandbaby already loved it when I showed her the first one thanks so much for this for everyone. This is a very great easy and wonderful thing, your grandbabies will love it. Your kids will love it. Your children will even love it.

My Grandkids love getting the stories and songs I create on Zoog. They are 3 and 2. It is so easy to create, it’s like a story karaoke! The words are highlighted for me to read and Zoog adds lively music and fun accessories to the mix. I feel much more connected with the kiddos and we talk about them too. This app makes it so so easy to create digital videos even if you are a newbie! I cannot wait to see what new stories and songs are added each time I open the app. This is now an essential tool in my grandparent toolbox!

Good App, Dishonest Leadership
Kimberly Evette
Very disappointed in this app. Back in April, we had an issue, and Yoav Oren (the CEO of the company) directly reached out to me. They stated they released a new update, asked us to download it, and personally offered a complimentary membership for the trouble.I did exactly what was asked. I updated the app and even paid for a trial out of pocket just to make sure the fix actually worked. The app itself works now, and my son loves it, but the CEO completely lied about the credit and ghosted us afterward.I sent the requested follow-up email to claim the complimentary membership and got no response. I sent another follow-up in June. Still nothing. It has been nearly three months of radio silence since this started in April. It’s incredibly frustrating and unprofessional when the head of a company makes a direct promise just to get you to troubleshoot their app, and then completely fails to follow through. Great app for kids, but terrible, dishonest leadership.
Developer Response
Hi Kimberly,We're truly sorry to hear that you left feeling disappointed. We understand how frustrating it is when you expect an issue to be resolved, especially when your child is excited to use the app.We do, however, want to clarify one important point. We pride ourselves on providing exceptional customer support and make every effort to respond to every inquiry we receive. In fact, it's not uncommon for our CEO to personally step into customer conversations because staying close to the families who use Zoog is one of our core values.After reviewing our records, we can see that we responded to your last message with troubleshooting steps and asked you to let us know whether the update resolved the issue. We didn't receive a response in that conversation, so we were surprised to read that you felt you had been ghosted. If a follow-up email never reached us, we're genuinely sorry, as that was certainly never our intention.Our offer of a complimentary membership still stands, and we'd be more than happy to honor it. Please reach out to us at support@getzoog.com or through the in-app chat, and we'll make sure you're taken care of.We completely understand your frustration. At the same time, suggesting that our CEO intentionally misled you or acted dishonestly does not reflect how this situation unfolded or how we operate as a company. Our goal has always been to make things right, and that remains true today 💙
We are dedicated to constantly enhancing the Zoog experience for you and your family!
As always, we'd like to hear your feedback! Contact us at feedback@getzoog.com or through the in-app chat.
