FAQs

What is a Toniebox?

A Toniebox is a screen-free audio system designed for children. It plays stories, songs, and educational content when a Tonie figure is placed on top of it. It's an interactive way for kids to engage with audio.

How do I add new stories or songs to my Toniebox?

You add new content by purchasing additional Tonie figures. Each Tonie figure contains pre-loaded content or can be assigned custom content via Creative-Tonies. Once placed on your Toniebox for the first time, the content downloads automatically via Wi-Fi.

Is the Toniebox safe for children?

Yes, the Toniebox is designed with children's safety in mind. It has no sharp edges, is made of durable, child-safe materials, and provides a screen-free audio experience to protect young eyes.

How long does the Toniebox battery last?

The battery life typically lasts up to 7 hours of continuous playback, making it suitable for extended listening sessions or travel. Actual battery life may vary based on usage and volume.

Can I use headphones with the Toniebox?

Yes, the Toniebox includes a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. You can plug in most wired headphones for private listening, which is great for quiet time or travel.

Can I record my own stories or messages on a Tonie?

Yes, you can with a Creative-Tonie (sold separately). Creative-Tonies allow you to record and upload your own audio content, such as personal stories, songs, or messages, through your `my.tonies.com` account.

Does the Toniebox need Wi-Fi to play stories?

The Toniebox needs a Wi-Fi connection for the initial setup and to download content when a new Tonie figure is placed on it for the first time. Once the content is downloaded, it is stored on the Toniebox and can be played offline without Wi-Fi.

Troubleshooting

Toniebox not turning on.

Ensure the Toniebox is fully charged. Place it on the charging station and check if the LED lights up. Try a different power outlet or USB port for the charging station.

No audio or very low audio.

Check the volume by tilting the Toniebox. Tilt the larger ear forward to increase volume, and the smaller ear forward to decrease. Ensure the Tonie is placed correctly and try tapping the top of the box lightly.

Toniebox not connecting to Wi-Fi.

Ensure your Wi-Fi network is 2.4 GHz (Tonies does not support 5 GHz). Move the Toniebox closer to your Wi-Fi router. Double-check your Wi-Fi password. If issues persist, try rebooting your router.

Tonie not playing content (first use).

Make sure the Toniebox is connected to Wi-Fi. The content needs to download from the Tonies Cloud the first time a Tonie is placed on a new box. This can take a few minutes depending on internet speed. Ensure the Tonie is placed firmly on the box.

Toniebox lights up red or flashes red.

A red light often indicates an error. Check the `my.tonies.com` portal under your connected Toniebox for specific error messages or try performing a factory reset (hold both ears for 10 seconds until it chirps).
