- Worth noticing
- The page says iPhone Duo owners can move the puppet’s jaw by opening and closing the phone; microphone recordings stay on-device.
Field notes
The page describes touch, tilt, shaking, stickers, and mix-and-match facial parts as ways to change the puppet. It also says the microphone is active only while its button is held, and that a Settings choice can disable it entirely. Purchase and settings links sit behind a brief grown-ups’ gate.
