Thanks a lot, this was really helpfull!! I wouldn't have been able do make a card for my daughter without your help, I had no clue how to get music on a playlist. Now I know!
Hi! I am trying to follow the steps in your video and for some reason once I've highlighted a song and clicked file>convert> the mp3 file option is grayed out and unclickable. I changed my preferences though so I don't understand why it won't show the mp3 as an option?
Ive thought about putting braille stickers on the cards, even if the kid isnt blind, i feel like it will help get kids used to braille in case they need to use it in the future. I havent found transparent sticker paper though so i dont know how it would work. I just thought this system would work better for a child/adult that might have little/no vision,without using an app or a cd player where you could break it if the sticker falls off. I dont know if the yoto app does screen reading either.
Once you have added your music, say 25 tracks, how do you find the track you want to listen to? I am trying to convert my books on tape to digital and looking for a way for my grandkids to be able to pick and listen to the books they want.
I cannot figure out how to have Yoto download the MYO card to the player 😭😭😭 I don’t want to rely on wifi; we don’t even have wifi… (technically we use hotspot data). All her purchased cards download in less than a minute, but with MYO, it just sits in the “not downloaded” category. Anyone else have this issue? 😭😭😭 I’m still on the hunt to find an answer. If I can figure it out, I’ll come back and let others know, cause this is so frustrating. Also ty for the tutorial. I had alrdy figure out the myo process, but you’re very clear and concise. It would have helped me along the way LOL
Hi Tara, I was trying to make some recordings with my iPhone. I couldn't find the file saving the recordings for adding to a playlist. Do you know how to do? Thank you so much!
What app were you using? If you use the Voice Recorder app on your iPhone you should be able to save the mp3 file and share it to your computer! Hope that helps!
I did convert mine to mp3 for the first card because this video said that they needed to be mp3. But after that I read you don't need to and have had no problem with dragging it/saving it in a different folder in the format it is already in.
Thank you for this helpful video. How do you find and save icons to be used? Also, how to you add homemade recordings like a parent reading a favorite book? Thanks
Hi, is it possible to glue printed images on these make your own cards or would that damage them, thanks! Also you mention a discount code but I don’t see that? Thanks
Yes, the cards can be used with any Yoto! I don’t think there is a limit of how many make your own cards you can have, I suppose it’s however many you decide to buy. We probably have about 10 make your own cards
Thank you for this video. Have you experienced music buffering on the player once audio is downloaded? Our mini is doing so with a few songs. Would this be a glitch on the website I downloaded audio from or a faulty player?
Hmm, I haven’t noticed that happening with ours. I’d it is happening with all of your cards I would say it is the player, but if it’s just one card it could be the audio on the card.
Do you know if this is something that can be done using Spotify? I have some podcasts and songs my kids love that I would like to make into a card. Thanks! 🙂
I just discovered the yoto player. My daughter turns 4 in may and I think this is going to be her gift. Question I don’t have a laptop and want to make her card do you think I could use the library computers? Or is there another alternative to downloading content ?
Hi, thank you for the video. Just got my first Yoto and have a lot of questions. 😆 I linked some music to the welcome card, but it kind of becomes blank every time I turn the player off and on again. So I have to link the music to the card every time I switch the player on. Does it work like that??
Hi! Sorry the delay. We actually lost our welcome card, so I never got to try it out. You shouldn’t have to link it every time, you should just have to link it once! I would try reaching out to Yoto, they might send you a new card!
Hmm it is possible it expired 😢. I believe the Hapa Family also has a coupon code, I would check out their video and see if her code works. So sorry! I’ll message them and see if I can get another code
We misplaced our welcome card so I never tried using it as a blank card. I would call or email support, because my understanding is the welcome card should work as a blank card!
I read on the website that you can stream internet radio stations. I have tried to do this from I heart radio and a few other online radio sites by copying and url but it doesn't work. Have you successfully done this ? Their support hasn't given me much help. Or do you know what online site provides the right url for this kind of stream ? Thanks !
We bought a yoto. These are terrible devices. Not only do parents have to go to great lengths to set up what should be a simple system, the software is extremely invasive and anti-privacy. No reason for a phone to be connected to the devise. In the end a decent streaming app on an iPad with a Bluetooth speaker is a million times more straightforward for a child.
I still have mixed feelings about the Yoto, but your video was SO MUCH BETTER than anything I found on the Yoto site. Many thanks!
Thank you!

Can I do this with my Apple Music subscription? Or do I have to purchase the music separately

Clear, succinct, informative! This is an amazing tutorial. Thank you!

You are able to assign pictures to the different tracks and then you can use the Yoto player button to switch tracks!
This was so helpful!!!! Thank you!
Glad this video was helpful!!

How about Audible? I have an audiobook book purchased that I want to put on a create your own Yoto card
I’m not sure, if you have access to the audio file on audible I would think you could. But I don’t know how audible works.
I just purchased 30 songs through iTunes only to find out that they cannot convert to mp3, because they are protected. So I'm pretty disappointed.
I did convert mine to mp3 for the first card because this video said that they needed to be mp3. But after that I read you don't need to and have had no problem with dragging it/saving it in a different folder in the format it is already in.
Thanks!
GreetingsTara.
Can I get music from my cd's/I tunes list from my computer and add it to the yoto min player ?
Thank you for this helpful video. How do you find and save icons to be used? Also, how to you add homemade recordings like a parent reading a favorite book? Thanks
Here is the link to recording your own stories: support.yotoplay.com/record-your-own-stories-11557
And as for the icons, you can upload any 16x16 PNG file (preferably with a transparent background) and it automatically changes it to pixels.
You rock thank you!
Hi Tara! What is the promo code Yoto gave you? Am I missing it in the description?
Hi, is it possible to glue printed images on these make your own cards or would that damage them, thanks!
Also you mention a discount code but I don’t see that?
Thanks
I’ve never tried glue, but I’ve printed out stickers and haven’t had an issue. Unfortunately I no longer have a discount code with Yoto :(
Where did you purchase blippi songs? I didn’t understand that part. Thanks
Yes, I purchased the Blippi songs from iTunes
@@TaraWilloughby i don't use itunes and apple music since i'm an android user. can you also purchase songs from youtube music?
Any suggestions for sites I can download music for reasonable price? TY!
Incredibly helpful video!! Thank you so much
You rock, Tara! What a helpful and beautifully made video. Thank you!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
How do you put iPhone voice memos on a yoto card?
What about doing all this from your iPhone?
What kind of pen do you use to write on the card?
I used a sharpie!
@@TaraWilloughby sharpie? it will bleed through!
Hi ! Thank you for the tutorial ! Do you know if it works with the yoto mini ? :)
I could not find the Promo Code for Yoto!
I no longer have a promo code 😔
Can I use cards made in one player with another yoto player? and how many different make your own cards can you have?
Yes, the cards can be used with any Yoto! I don’t think there is a limit of how many make your own cards you can have, I suppose it’s however many you decide to buy. We probably have about 10 make your own cards

I don’t understand I don’t know what to do
Do you know if this is something that can be done using Spotify? I have some podcasts and songs my kids love that I would like to make into a card. Thanks! 🙂
Unfortunately streaming services do not allow you to download the music, think of it like you are “renting” the song. 🙁
Thanks so much!! Just found out about the yoto player and I’m pumped for my little guys!
Glad this video was helpful!!
@@TaraWilloughby i don’t use apple music, so i will record my playlists instead.
What is your discount code I don't see it anymore?
They have not given me a new one, I’m sorry 😓
Hi! I was curious if a MYO card could be used offline without the yoto being connected to wifi?
yes. it is downloaded.
Was going to do this while Stella played but I'm glad I saw your video first. Definitely needs more than 10% of my focus 😅 Thank you Tara!
Haha, yeah its a bit of a process!
I just discovered the yoto player. My daughter turns 4 in may and I think this is going to be her gift. Question I don’t have a laptop and want to make her card do you think I could use the library computers? Or is there another alternative to downloading content ?
I think it would probably depend on the library and if they allow you to upload music files to their computer. Good luck!
Your video was really helpful but can you please say me whether i can make my own recordings and make it as a card!!
Hi! Yes, you can! You just need to record your audio and create an MP3 file :)
@@TaraWilloughby Thankyou Tara 😊
How do you purchase the songs if you have Apple Music? I don’t see an option to purchase (I subscribe to Apple Music).
They don’t make it easy, honestly I would just Google it- there are some other YT videos that show you how to purchase! It’s kinda a hidden feature!
@@TaraWilloughby i have mp3 files from youtube. that is an easier way.
Thank you for sharing.
You’re welcome!
How do you put audiobooks on the card? Is that possible? Easy?
I’ve never added audiobooks, but if you are able to get the audio file, it would follow the same exact steps!
I understand why it doesn’t work but I really wish yoto could link up with Apple Music subscription! 😂
Also, thank you for this video. It was extremely helpful!
Me too!
Thank you, this was helpful!
Where is your little basket holder from please x
It’s from Ikea, the baskets come in a set of three nesting baskets
Hey Tara! What is the discount code for the Yoto?
Unfortunately I no longer have a discount code with Yoto :(
Hey Tara! Is your discount code still active?
Hi, unfortunately it is not :(
Really Nice tuto. Thank you.
Do you have to be connected to the internet for yoto to work?
You will need internet connection to set it up, but you are able to use it offline after it is set up!
Greeting Tara. Can used the music from my I tune list from my computer and upload them to min Yoto player?
Hi! You can use any purchased music in iTunes, you will not be able to use music that is through a streaming service (like Apple Music or Spotify).
@@TaraWilloughby you can also convert your favorite songs from youtube with a youtube mp3 converter.
I didn’t see a discount code, did it expire?
Unfortunately I no longer have a discount code for Yoto :(
Thank you very much.
Amazing! Thank you, that was so easy to follow and exactly what I needed :)
Glad it helped!

@@TaraWilloughby i will frame mine and let the creators of yoto sign it!
Where does the discount code work? I tried entering it on Amazon to purchase the yoto directly from yoto there and it says invalid
Hmm it is possible it expired 😢. I believe the Hapa Family also has a coupon code, I would check out their video and see if her code works. So sorry! I’ll message them and see if I can get another code
That would be amazing! this looks like an awesome little creation
thanx! this is super helpful when starting w a Yoto!!🤩
So glad this was helpful!
Thanks for this video!
Have you ever tried to use the welcome card as a blank card ? It does not work for us... if you have an idea to solve this :-)
We misplaced our welcome card so I never tried using it as a blank card. I would call or email support, because my understanding is the welcome card should work as a blank card!
@@TaraWilloughby wow!
How much songs you can put i one card?
You can add 100 tracks per card
@@TaraWilloughby i have a music playlist on that. since the limit is 100, i divided it into 1 and 2. go and check it out!
Thank you for this easy to follow guide
Glad it was helpful!
@@TaraWilloughby i have a few mp3 files that are my favorite songs. it’s for a make your own card called “cute music for kids”.
Thank You. Very clear explanation
So glad this was helpful!
