I’m currently using a Yoto (3 devices) with my 1 and 4 year old and they thoroughly enjoy it. The MYO experience and loading up cards is pretty straightforward as well.
Love the concept here and I would be a customer if you were still offering lifetime, but with so many things going subscription nowadays adding another at $40/year just feels a bit on the higher side. Definitely understand how that assists with cash flow for ongoing development though.
Totally get it – subscription fatigue is real. Yoto is great for that age, we still have the Toniebox for our younger one.
The pricing is tricky. One-time worked for users but not for ongoing development. $40/year sounds steep, but it's ~$3.30/month – less than a single Tonie figurine. Family plan can be shared with grandparents too.
That said, I hear you. Always evaluating the model.
Totally understood. Currently we're subbed at the ~$150/year for Yoto for access to the club and credits for cards, so adding on at this point is somewhat unnecessary right now.
As they age out of Yoto this would certainly be worth it at that point.
