Common Personalization Questions
Why doesn't the story include everything I mentioned?
The AI selects the most relevant details for each specific story type. Not every detail fits every story archetype.
Can I include multiple children in one story?
Yes! You can create stories featuring siblings or friends as main characters together.
How do I make stories about real places?
Mention specific locations during the conversation: "their bedroom," "the park near our house," or "grandma's backyard."
What if my child's interests change?
Update their profile interests in Account Settings, or mention new interests during story creation conversations.
Can the AI remember details from previous stories?
Yes, the AI learns from your child's profile and previous conversations to improve future personalization.
