Purchased 2 for Christmas presents for my girls age 6 and 8…they love them! Keeps them entertained for hours, just right for their age. Many functions for them to use and easy to navigate. Would recommend 100%
My son was really pleased with the secret diary. It fit the bill of what he asked for. Disappointing however that the pen nib split, I mean within seconds of being used. Then it leaked all over the notepad so it was blotch very quickly. Luckily I had a pen that fit and the door still closes. Simple and fun.
Granddaughter loves this and can’t put it down. Make sure you change the batteries it comes with as they are only for demo and due quickly! Also can’t find any mention of a memory card required, but it is!
Not opened as its for Christmas but it seems good and got it on prime day for a bargain.
Daughter really wanted one of these for her birthday and she wasnt disappointed !
Happy with product and as a parent it exceeded my expectations.
You’d need to ask the little one about face recognition etc. All I know is it gets played with a lot.
Brought for my niece she was very happy with it.
Setting up the facial recognition was easy at first, though because we were in a different environment (darker) we had to reset this in our lighter home for it to work properly.
Thankfully, pressing the reset button to redo the picture for unlocking under the battery compartment does not wipe all the data including diary entries and unicorn progress etc.
The door does open in order for you to enter the pass code to unlock, which is 4 digits.
It would be nice if you didn’t have to wait for the camera not to recognise you before waiting for the door to unlock in order to enter the code. I think its too long of a wait before you can bypass the camera option.
It takes about 20 seconds.
Oddly the unicorn seems to sleep right when we are awake in the mornings so we had to set the time 2 hours ahead in order for it to be awake.
When it sleeps you cannot do anything with it. So frustration sets in – hence changing the time on the diary.
So apart from those oddities it works very well. Like the other devices in this range/price point the camera is a bit naff. It’s poor in low light and when you look at the pictures on a computer/tablet they are of very poor quality. It is to be expected.
We added a memory card for saving pictures and other bits to. We also had some music added to this card for playing. The sound is ok actually from the small speaker.
Our daughter enjoys adding a diary entry with an emoticon, weather and some writing. Since it has a qwerty keyboard it is good for children to learn the position of the keys/letters.
The lights are a nice touch but they only just illuminate in random patterns.
The games are good, similar to other VTech devices. There is the dressing room & photo edition option too but I have not fully got to grips with that yet. There is a fair few features to delve into to keep children interested.
Since there isn’t a detailed manual it’s a bit of guess work finding out all the keys and options. It was a day or so before we realised there was a back button for instance.
Saying that there is a voice that helps you and guides you through the options that are available.
There is background music playing whilst the unit is unlocked. You can turn this off. As usual the batteries supplied are worth changing straight away with a decent set since ours lasted just a few hours before it showed a low battery warning and failed to stay on.
Our daughter found that there is an integrated stand to allow the device to stand up in portrait mode.
Overall it is a nice toy with several features. I hope it will be used for many months before being left in a corner 🙂
Great gift for my niece. She absolutely loved it. She really liked the technology behind the diary and liked that it didn’t come with a key as she’s alwYs losing them for her diaries.
Lovely gift for kids.
My son has Asperger’s syndrome and adhd. A diary with a lock on itis something he just desperately wanted. This seemed perfect for him. I was a little bit disappointed with the price. Thought it was overpriced
Delighted with this item arrived day before Christmas very happy with all the functions keep my little niece busy all day long
I bought this for my husband’s niece fee months back. Gives me so much joy to see her take pride into writing in her diary moments of the day she wants to cherish. She absolutely loves it. Seeing her smile made it worth all the more recommend for all girlie’s aged 7+
Bought as a present so hopefully it will be excellent. Good size
Fabulous for girls to keep their secrets and money in safe !
My daughter loves it so much. She was pleased to show it to her friends and relatives. I can highly recommend it!
My 6 year old daughter was very happy with this. Its sturdy and well presented, with plenty of games/options to engage with.
Its really easy to use, my 8 year old daughter loves the games the voice changer and many other features. She spends a lot of time on it. A great gift!
Got it for my daughter for Christmas and two days later it’s not working. Just needed to change batteries!
Not as simple to use as I thought it would be. – That being said my 7 year old can use it no problem! Everything i said I couldn’t do like find the photos after taking them, she took it and found them. So its top marks from her. And her review is what counts!
Is fantastic for my 8 years old, but we have some problems with the voice password lock, other then that is realy nice …thank you
After using it for a month, it developed a fault on the screen which made it difficult to see clearly.
I contacted Amazon, who arranged for me to return the faulty diary and delivered a replacement the next day.
Brilliant customer service.
Bought for 7 yr old Daughter and she loves it. It’s provided her with lots of entertainment so definitely a good purchase
This was a hit at Christmas with my partner’s daughter. She loves that only her voice is recognised, and that she can store all her secret and ‘work’ on it. We love the factor there are educational games on it too, which is a bonus. The only disappointing factor for us was the screen broken after a couple of weeks however, it was very promptly replaced therefore, no complaints.
The device was a present for our 6 year old.
The voice recognition was very hit and miss, requiring several attempts before success for my daughter, although it was less of an issue for me.
Otherwise it’s a pretty good device
This looks excellent but really difficult to pass comment as it is a Xmas gift.
A very happy 7 year old who takes this diary everywhere with her. Very sturdy and lots of things to do in the diary. Just remember to put new batteries in when it’s received- it only works on test mode with the batteries it comes with. A lovely gift.
It was over 10 cheaper on here than the RRP.
I was not expecting much from this product but I had a little play around with it while it was in the box before hand and I was surprised at how bright and good quality the screen is. Of course ‘good quality’ for a kids toy, I am not comparing it to expensive adult gadgets like our phones or televisions!
There is more to it than just writing in your diary. There are different modes / games.
The reciever loves the toy and it is currently used daily before bed. It comes out for only 10 minutes but it is very much enjoyed. She sees it as being very grown up getting to ‘write’ in her diary before bed.
Money well spent.
Batteries lasting well and she loves the games and fact she can take it anywhere as doesn’t require wifi.
A variety of games keeps her busy and she lives the secret compartment.
Has volume control however volume resets itself everytime switched off. Auto switches off too soon when recording voice. Daughter finds too hard to reduce volume and turn off music so I have to do everytime or put up with it.
My 6 year old was thrilled to bits with this after asking for it for her birthday. Little sister has been able to open it with her voice a couple of times which she was a bit miffed about, but for the price you can’t be surprised. Lots to do and keeps her busy.
