Application Description

tapStory fosters open-ended creative play between children and their picture books. A book in tapStory becomes an interactive story. Each page becomes a scene. Readers play with the characters and objects in the scene as they read the text aloud. As they play, tapStory records their actions and their voices as a performance that can be saved and played back.

This app comes with one free book: Pea and Carrot. Meet Pea, who knows all about Carrot, but Carrot doesn't seem to know she exists. How can she get him to notice her? All of her vegetable friends want to help.

More great stories are available for purchase within the app!

Scenes remember their configurations. When the user navigates back to a scene they have already visited and modified, it will reappear as they left it.

Recording and playback controls have been updated:
- Button text has been replaced with icons.
- Playback can be paused.
- A Scene Reset button has been added to restore a scene to its original appearance.

Parents can disable automatic recording when stories are read. This may be done through a universal settings screen, or within the story interface.

There is now a recording indicator in the top left of the screen when recording is active. When a story is first opened, there is a small popup note indicating whether it is being automatically recorded.

After thirty seconds of inactivity, recording will be stopped.

If automatic recording is disabled, a scene can be explicitly recorded by using the record button.

Recordings may be optionally played back with only audio. If the user plays back only the audio of a recording, they may interact with the items in the story while the audio plays.

During playback of a story recording, the user may advance or go back scenes.

The tutorial is easier to use and can be exited at any time.
