For parents

We create a world of play.
We build trust with parents.

At the Mini Dodo studio, we create playful apps in a thoughtfully designed environment where play, children's privacy and parental safeguards come together. We focus on simple experiences, clear information for parents, thoughtful safeguards and play without ads. Together, these values form a circle of trust: children can enjoy playing, while grown-ups understand which decisions remain theirs.

Our approach

Thoughtful safeguards in every little discovery.

At the Mini Dodo studio, we believe children's play should be cheerful, simple and free from unnecessary interruptions. We design our apps with particular care for children's privacy, parental safeguards and clear information that helps grown-ups make decisions.

No ads

We create every Mini Dodo app without ads, so children can enjoy playing without advertising interruptions.

Grown-up choices

A parental check (Parental Gate) helps separate settings and purchase decisions from children's play.

Children’s privacy

The privacy of young children is an important part of our approach. For each app, we aim to explain clearly how data is handled.

Clear information for parents

We want to give parents a simple explanation of what each app offers, what additional purchase options are available and how its parental safeguards work.

Parental Gate

Grown-up choices stay separate from play.

Parental Gate is part of every Mini Dodo app. It helps separate children's play from settings and purchase options. An additional parental check is required before entering areas intended for adults.

  1. Play stays simple

    Children can explore and enjoy playing, while settings and purchase options remain separate from the main part of the app.

  2. A parental check

    An additional check appears before entering areas intended for adults. The verification method may differ from one app to another.

  3. Choices stay with adults

    Settings and optional purchases, when available, stay in the part of the app intended for adults.

Parental Gate is an additional safeguard and does not replace parental supervision or purchase controls on the device or in the app store.

Privacy in plain language

Less data.
More peace of mind.

At the Mini Dodo studio, we take children's privacy seriously. When developing each app, we consider which data is truly needed and how to protect young children. We want to explain clearly to parents what information is used, why it is needed and what controls are available to them.

The details may differ from one app to another, so we explain them clearly in the privacy information.

Parent questions

A few helpful answers for grown-ups.

Do Mini Dodo apps have ads?

No. We create every Mini Dodo app without ads so children can explore, learn and have fun without advertising interruptions.

How does Parental Gate work?

Parental Gate is an additional parental check we use in all Mini Dodo apps. It helps separate children's play from settings and purchase options intended for adults. The verification method may differ from one app to another.

How does Mini Dodo approach children's privacy?

Children's privacy is an important part of our approach to developing apps. We aim to limit data use to what each app needs and clearly explain to parents how that data is handled.

Where can I find privacy information for a particular app?

Privacy information is available in the privacy policy. There, we explain what data each app uses, for what purpose and what options parents have. The details may differ between apps.

How do purchases work in Mini Dodo apps?

Some apps may offer optional additional content. For each app, we clearly explain what is included and which extra purchases are available. Purchases are confirmed through the app store, and a parental check separates access to purchasing areas from children's play.

Do safeguards differ between Mini Dodo apps?

Our core principles stay the same: ad-free play, care for privacy and parental safeguards. Individual features and the way safeguards are implemented may differ by app. We explain the important details for each app.

Are Mini Dodo apps for learning or for fun?

Both! We design our apps so children can explore, discover and develop their curiosity through play. Each app has its own theme and way to play, and exploring together with parents can enrich the experience.

How can I contact Mini Dodo?

Have a question, a suggestion or need help with one of our apps? Get in touch through the Contact page. We'd be happy to hear your feedback and help where we can. Please avoid sending unnecessary personal information about your child.

A little discovery, together

The first Mini Dodo adventure starts here.

Meet Baby Phone: Animal Sounds — our first ad-free app. Through fun pretend calls, children meet animal friends, listen to their sounds and see their names written on screen. It is available on Google Play for Android, and the iPhone version is coming soon.
