Thereâs no time like the present, but sometimes you need to take a little step backwards, or forwards. Thatâs when our super-handy, super intuitive fast-forward and rewind feature comes into play.
What is fast-forward Rewind?
So, if your kids ever miss a joke on Yoto Daily or canât wait to get to âthat bitâ of their favourite storyâthis is for them. As you might expect, this feature offers a quick and easy way to jump through audio.
The Controls
Just like everything else on our players, using rewind or fast-forward is childâs play.
Itâs as simple as:Â
âȘ Left button press for > 1 second = Rewind
⩠Right button press for > 1 second = Fast-forward
âčïž To stop seeking, just remove your hand.
The Speeds
The longer you hold either button, the quicker it rewinds or fast-forwards.Â
The number of chevrons (>) you see on the pixel display increases the longer you hold the button, telling you how fast youâre going through the audio.
⩠Hold for longer than 1 second  >> 20 seconds every 1 second
⩠After 4 seconds  >>> 50 seconds every 1 second
⩠After 7 seconds  >>>> 120 seconds every 1 second
The Seek Bar
This shows you how far, and how quickly, you are seeking through the audio content.
Oh, and alsoâŠ
We should probably let you know that these fast-forward and rewind features wonât work on Make Your Own cards under 16 seconds long, or on any of our radio stations. Yep, even the most advanced time travel technology has its limits đ
How does my Yoto player update?
If itâs connected to Wi-Fi, itâll update automatically when not playing anything. You can check the last time your player was updated at the top of your playerâs settings page in the Yoto App.
âŠand that about does it.
This was one of the top requested features on our Yoto Space Ideas Wall so itâs been brilliant to bring this to life.
Happy listening, and if youâve got any other ideas for updates that youâd like to see, hop over to the Ideas Wall!
