La Capseta de Música

The settings

You open them with a double tap on the Settings icon, at the end of the start screen. It's a double tap so that the child can't open them by accident. All the options are saved: the music box remembers them next time. When you leave, play time starts.

Some options only exist in the music boxes for one age: we say so for each one.

Language

Catalan (by default) or English. It changes the texts for parents: notices, help and settings. The songs don't change.

Duration

How long each session lasts. No session is unlimited: they all end by themselves, gently.

Routine

How the session is split: with pictures or dark, calmer or livelier, and the volume. There is always one; by default, Free. The routines are explained in How it works.

Dark mode

Only in the baby and toddler music boxes. The screen stays black and only the music plays: for falling asleep. It's a shortcut that chooses a fully dark routine. The screen may turn off by itself; if you turn it on, you'll see the title, small, and the Exit button.

Background colour

The colour behind the picture. Each music box has its own palette: five colours that come from the app's colour, from the darkest to the lightest. By default, the middle one. Why you can't choose just any colour: The colours.

Skip the magic animation

Yes or no. The magic animation shows parents how the music box works. Once you know, you can skip it: the theme tune will play instead, and then play time starts. You can also turn it off with the "Don't show this again" box next to "Start". If you want to see it again, turn it back on here.

Go straight to play

To make the start screen as short as possible, for when the child is crying. You can only choose it when the start screen has nothing left to tell you: you've seen the help, the notices no longer appear and the magic animation is off. Then the start screen lasts a few seconds, without music, just so you can open the settings. The checks are still done. If you turn the magic animation back on, this option is turned off.

Reduce motion

If the device has "Reduce Motion" on (in the device Settings, under Accessibility), the music box respects it. Here you can choose:

With reduced motion, the picture moves as little as possible, but never stops completely.

The child's age

(Coming soon.) If you wish, you can enter the child's age in months, from 0 to 36, or "over 36". The music box adapts to it: the size of the picture and the speed of the movement. It's optional, stored only on the device and moves on by itself over time.
