Common questions

How long does it take to generate a story?

Most stories are ready in under 30 seconds. Longer stories with more personalisation details may take up to 60 seconds.

Do I need to be online to read stories?

You need an internet connection to generate new stories. But once a story is saved to your library, it can be read offline.

Can I control what topics appear in stories?

Yes. Each universe has curated themes, and you can apply content filters by age group. Shally never includes scary, violent, or inappropriate content.

How many stories can my child have?

Your subscription plan determines your monthly sparkle allowance. Stories cost sparkles — you can see the cost before generating. Unused sparkles roll over each month.
