What each screen is for

Written so you can read it aloud to your child if that helps.

Look at the ⚙ at the top right first. Everything a grown-up needs is behind it — language, sound, saving a picture, deleting a story, linking an account. It opens only after a three-second press-and-hold, so a child will not wander in.

The list

The list

Where the stories a child has made live. The picture is the first panel, and the box underneath is the name — type in it and it saves, with nothing to press. It comes with a name already, for children who cannot write one yet.

Making a comic

Making a comic

The row of panels at the top, the panel being worked on in the middle, and the drawer below. Tap a friend, backdrop, thing or bubble to put it in; once it is in, it drags.
Up to twenty panels, and dragging the little pictures at the top changes their order. Undo and redo reach everything.

Tapping a friend you placed

Tapping a friend you placed

Choose what they are doing (ten poses) and how they feel (ten faces). Each one has its word underneath, so a child who cannot read yet still meets the word when you read it to them.
The Movement tick beside the name makes that friend move on screen — saved pictures always show them still. The red Done at the top right goes back to the drawer.

Bubbles

Bubbles

Only Say something, on the left, takes words. A child who cannot spell taps in Hi! · Thank you · Let's play; one who can, types.
The rest are picture bubbles — a heart, a music note, a question mark, and nothing to type.

Reading it

Reading it

The panels in order on one screen. This is the screen a child turns the tablet around with, so there is nothing else on it.

One panel at a time

One panel at a time

Tap a panel and it fills the screen. The arrows underneath move forward and back, and the counter shows where you are.

⚙ The grown-up check

⚙ The grown-up check

Pressing ⚙ brings this up first. Hold the circle for three seconds; letting go starts it over. Settings and account linking are all behind it.

Inside the grown-up settings

Inside the grown-up settings

Language and sound, and for each story Save as picture and Delete.
Saving asks whether you want all in one (panels stacked vertically) or one per panel. Deleting asks again, because it cannot be undone.
At the bottom, linking an account is optional. Everything is already on this device, and nothing uploads by itself.

保存はどうなりますか

保存ボタンがありません。子どもがつくっている間ずっとこの端末に保存され、タブを閉じても残っています。5歳が保存を押すことはありませんし、閉じて消えたまんがは、つくった時間がむだになるだけだからです。
アカウント連携は別の話です — 別の端末にまんがを持っていくときだけ必要で、大人が自分で押したときだけ上がります。

準備するもの

ありません。インストールも登録もなく、ブラウザで開きます。5歳から10歳を想定してつくりました。
