Three Apples: Armenian Tales

Bring Armenian storytime home. Step into a world of clever characters, colourful villages and stories passed from one generation to the next. Three Apples brings tales in both Eastern and Western Armenian to iPhone and iPad through animated illustrations, Armenian narration and music made for each tale. Read together, listen along, or hide the words and enjoy the pictures. There is something to discover on every page. 50+ TALES TO EXPLORE Discover tales inspired by Hovhannes Tumanyan, Ghazaros Aghayan, Khnko Aper and other Armenian writers, alongside ancient legends and stories from the Armenian folk tradition. Find your next story by author, length or Armenian language, and return to the stories your family loves whenever storytime calls. FOLLOW THE STORY, WORD BY WORD Listen to Armenian narration while the words light up on the page. Adjust the text size and highlighting to suit your reader, or turn off the text to enjoy the animated artwork. Tap the pictures to discover their little movements and surprises. A QUIZ AFTER EVERY TALE When a story ends, play a quiz about it. Children answer questions about the tale they have just heard, in the language they listened in, by choosing a picture or a sentence, and collect apples for their right answers. Try the first questions free with The Liar and Kikos; with the full library, play every quiz in full, with a new mix of questions each time. BEDTIME: TALES LIKE AN AUDIOBOOK With the full library: choose a few tales and hear them one after another, with soft music, even with the screen locked. Stop after the list, a few tales or a set time, and carry on the next evening. EASTERN AND WESTERN ARMENIAN Each tale is clearly labelled Eastern or Western Armenian, making it easy to find familiar favourites and discover something new. Every story pairs Armenian text with Armenian narration, and every tale can also be read and heard in English and Russian. Menus are available in English, Armenian and Russian. READ TO THEM IN YOUR OWN VOICE With the full library, record yourself reading any tale, page by page, so a child hears it in a parent's or grandparent's familiar voice, even when you're away. Recordings are made and kept only on your device: they are never sent to us or anyone else, and they aren't included in backups. You can delete them at any time in the settings for grown-ups. START WITH TWO FREE STORIES The Liar and Kikos are included free, with no purchase needed. Both are built into the app and work offline. The full library is a one-time purchase, or a monthly or yearly subscription: every other tale, every quiz in full, Bedtime, and recording the tales in your own voice. The one-time purchase keeps it open for good; a subscription, while it is active. More tales are planned for future updates. Download tales before reading away from an internet connection. Paid tales, including downloaded copies, need the one-time purchase or an active subscription. Internet access is needed for downloads, purchases, restoration and some subscription checks. A QUIETER SPACE FOR FAMILIES No advertising, accounts, analytics or tracking in the app. Reading history, quiz scores, preferences and your voice recordings stay on your device and are not sent to Markael Studio. Purchases, parent settings and external links sit behind a parental gate. ABOUT PURCHASES Your local price and billing period are shown before purchase. The one-time purchase never renews. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled through your Apple Account before renewal. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings, and restore an existing purchase from the Parents screen. The two free stories remain available after a subscription ends. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
