The short version
What TinyBright will never do
No ads
There are no advertisements anywhere in the game — not between activities, not on the home screen, not ever.
No purchases
Nothing inside the play experience costs money. There are no “tap to buy” traps aimed at little fingers.
No tracking
No third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, or tracking cookies. No profiles are built about your child.
No account
No sign-up, no email, no password. Just open it and play.
No uploads
Progress and prizes are saved on your own device and stay there. Nothing is sent to a server.
No camera or mic
The voices you hear are pre-recorded and bundled in. The game never listens or watches.
In your hands
Controls built for you
A tucked-away Parent area — reached the way these things should be, past a spot toddlers won’t stumble into — lets you shape the experience:
- Sound you control. Separate sliders for the voice, the effects and the background music — turn the music off entirely if you’d rather have quiet.
- Choose the worlds. Show only Colors and Shapes today if that’s where your child is, and add Numbers and Letters when they’re ready.
- Separate profiles. Give each child their own progress, prizes and avatar color — up to five in all.
Our approach
Gentle by design
Very young children learn through repetition, encouragement, and the freedom to make mistakes without consequence. TinyBright is shaped around that:
- Everything is spoken. A warm voice reads every instruction and celebrates every success, so a child who can’t read yet is never stuck.
- There’s no way to lose. No timers on the activities themselves, no scores counting down, no “game over.” A wrong tap simply invites another try.
- Difficulty follows the child. Games unlock and level up as skills grow, and a round that proves tricky quietly makes the next one easier.
- Rewards are wholesome. Stars and collectible pets and hats — earned only by playing, never bought.
TinyBright is a supplement to play, not a substitute for it. We think screens are best in small, shared doses. We don’t ship our own timer — your device’s parental controls do that job properly, across every app, and a child can’t reset them by closing ours.
Good to know
A few practical notes
- Ages. Designed for roughly 2 to 5. Younger toddlers enjoy the tapping and the characters; older ones grow into tracing, counting and the alphabet.
- Devices. Works in any modern browser on a tablet, phone or computer, with large touch targets sized for small hands. Apps for Android (Google Play), Amazon Fire tablets (Amazon Appstore) and Windows (Microsoft Store) run fully offline; iPad and iPhone are in development.
- Cost. The web version is free, with no ads and nothing to buy. The Google Play app is a free download with one optional $4.99 “Unlock everything” purchase, kept behind the parent math gate; the Fire tablet and Windows apps are the complete game for $4.99 with no in-app purchases. Never a subscription.
- Data. Because everything stays on the device, clearing your browser’s data or switching devices will reset progress. That’s the trade-off for collecting nothing.

Questions parents ask
Straight answers
Is TinyBright safe for my toddler?
Yes. TinyBright has no ads, no third-party analytics or advertising SDKs, no account and no chat or social features. Nothing your child does leaves the device, and the only purchase (the optional one-time unlock on Google Play) sits behind a parent math gate.
What data does TinyBright collect?
None. There is no sign-in and no server storing your child’s play. Profiles, stars and prizes live in the app’s own storage on your device, which also means clearing app data or switching devices resets progress.
How do I limit screen time?
TinyBright has no built-in timer. We removed it: it reset every time the app was reopened, so a child could get around it in one swipe, and a control that looks stronger than it is does you no favours. Use your device’s own parental controls instead — Screen Time on iPhone and iPad, Family Link or Digital Wellbeing on Android, Amazon Kids on Fire tablets, Microsoft Family Safety on Windows. Those work across every app and survive closing TinyBright.
Can I choose which worlds my child sees?
Yes. In the Parent area you can switch Colors, Numbers, Letters and Shapes on or off, so you can start with one or two and add the rest when your child is ready.
Can several children share one device?
Yes — up to five profiles, each with its own progress, prizes and avatar color.
Is there any way for my child to spend money?
No. The only purchase is the one-time "Unlock everything" in the Google Play version, and it is behind the parent math gate. The Fire tablet and Windows versions are the complete game with no in-app purchases at all.
