Great question! There are two different ways to add content onto your Creative-Tonie. You can use either the mytonies app on your smartphone or my.tonies.com on your computer. Note: You are only able to directly record content using the mytonies app. It's also important to note that you do not need to physically be in the same location as the Toniebox or Creative-Tonie to upload content.
Before uploading, be sure to double-check the supported audio files for the Creative-Tonies.
How to add content onto your Creative-Tonie:
Using the mytonies app
-
Open the mytonies app and tap the icon in the bottom right hand corner titled 'Collection'.
-
Tap on the 'Creative-Tonies' header.
-
Tap on the picture of the Creative-Tonie you want to add content to.
-
Here you can choose if you want to record new content directly onto the Creative-Tonie by tapping the microphone button or upload already saved content by tapping the tonie/arrow icon..
-
If you choose to record new content directly, tapping the microphone button will bring up the recording page. To begin recording, tap the red circle.
-
Once you are finished recording, tap the red stop button at the bottom of the screen.
- Once the recording is stopped, you will have a chance to listen to the recording, delete and record again, or save and assign. If you would like to add the recording to the Creative-Tonie, tap 'Save and assign'.
- Once the new content is uploaded to the Creative-Tonie, you will just need to sync the Toniebox in order to download the new content. To do this, simply turn on the Toniebox and pinch one of the Tonieboxes ears for about three seconds until you hear a sound. The LED will begin flashing blue while your Toniebox updates with the new content. You can then place the Creative-Tonie onto the Toniebox when the light turns solid green. The new content will then be played and downloaded simultaneously.
