@brooks_jones: @dhfl143 That's great! Don't forget to use the #storyappchat hashtag, so we can all see your contribution.
April 16, 2012, 1:05 am

@DavidBFox: Maybe those out there want to keep their presence private :-) #storyappchat

@DeclicKids: #storyappchat As a reviewer, I think privacy is very important. I wrote an article on the subject (sorry, French) http://t.co/M4R72wYP
April 16, 2012, 1:07 am

@brooks_jones: So as far as I know, the FTC is investigating and finding some devs in violation of existing laws, correct? #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:07 am

@iPad_storytime: I hear a lot of nervousness from consumers about #privacy issues in apps, but it's very confusing for the average user. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:08 am

@dhfl143: #storyappchat I'm hoping 2learn ideas about app privacy, especially 2protect our kids.
April 16, 2012, 1:08 am

@DavidBFox: @iPad_storytime it's often confusing for me too! #storyappchat

@Julia_Brannon: Hello storyappchatters... #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 1:09 am

@brooks_jones: @Julia_Brannon Welcome to #storyappchat! Glad you could make it.


April 16, 2012, 1:10 am

@SmartyAppAttack: My first app is almost complete, and I'm wanting to make certain I'm not breaking any privacy issues. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:10 am

@brooks_jones: Did everybody see this article on the blog re: privacy? http://t.co/fHOpD5NK #storyappchat

@artsylliu: Hello #storyappchat ...going to lurk a bit tonight.

April 16, 2012, 1:14 am

@brooks_jones: @SmartyAppAttack Tell us more about your app--congrats! #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 1:15 am

@DavidBFox: One thing that @momswithapps was trying to do was get out in front of this #privacy issue... #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:15 am

@Allikidzcontent: Joining #storyappchat finally ...live!


April 16, 2012, 1:16 am

@DavidBFox: ...come up with an easy to understand image that anyone could immediately follow, and that kids app devs could use #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:16 am

@dhfl143: #storyappchat especially if apps update changes in their privacy policy between updates
April 16, 2012, 1:16 am

@brooks_jones: @Allikidzcontent Welcome to #storyappchat! Glad to have you.


April 16, 2012, 1:16 am

@DeclicKids: @DavidBFox #storyappchat, Yes I think their image is very nice too.
April 16, 2012, 1:16 am

@DavidBFox: It's gone through several iterations, but calls out things like advertising, social media, use of external links to websites #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:16 am

@SmartyAppAttack: My app teaches nouns in story format. I'll have activities/lessons on my website. Is providing an external link to site ok? #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:17 am

@brooks_jones: @SmartyAppAttack Absolutely! Link away, we're interested! #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 1:18 am

@dhfl143: #storyappchat I mean how many of us have "updated all" only to realize now there were in app purchases or other issues changed.
April 16, 2012, 1:18 am

April 16, 2012, 1:19 am

@brooks_jones: @dhfl143 Exactly--I see this happening more often on the Android side, but apps change on the Apple side too. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:19 am

@Julia_Brannon: Great icon in the @momswithapps article to help developers disclose in app features - Thanks @DavidBFox #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:19 am

@SmartyAppAttack: @brooks_jones I meant if I provide a link at the end of my app to the activities on my site... Is that ok? #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:20 am

@DavidBFox: Here's a screengrab from one of our apps with the #privacy badge below http://t.co/jr5jISZl #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:20 am

@brooks_jones: @SmartyAppAttack I'm pretty sure links either at the end of an app or on the About page are still OK, correct, guys? #storyappchat

April 16, 2012, 1:21 am

@DeclicKids: @Allikidzcontent #storyappchat in my article I suggest this could be brought by a (lightly) protected page, for parents and not for kids
April 16, 2012, 1:22 am

@Allikidzcontent: i.e.if you link to facebook, youtube: it gets kid out of app, which is a no-no (but social feature good for marketing) #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:22 am

@DeclicKids: @Allikidzcontent #storyappchat what would you think?


April 16, 2012, 1:22 am

@iPad_storytime: RT @DeclicKids: @Allikidzcontent I suggest this could be brought by a (lightly) protected page, for parents & not for kids #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:23 am

@brooks_jones: Interesting how other devs have incorporated those #privacy icons. Very helpful for consumers, IMHO. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:23 am

@DavidBFox: There's also at least 3 levels of links... opening a web-hosted page inside the app in a pop-up window (you don't leave app) #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:24 am

@iPad_storytime: @SmartyAppAttack Ideally apps for children under 12 shouldn't have easily accessible links ... in a secondary menu is often ok #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:24 am

@brooks_jones: I think devs need to do more than simply suggest 'put your device in airplane mode' re: privacy #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:24 am

@Allikidzcontent: Also: app prices being so low means sales of book alone apparently not enough to survive, but if you add in-app purchase: bad #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:24 am

@DavidBFox: these pages could be very self-contained so links on them all go to other safe pages, or no links at all on them #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:25 am

@DeclicKids: #storyappchat there are quite a big lot of good examples : protected parents pages, privacy mode by default, etc
April 16, 2012, 1:25 am

@DavidBFox: In our case, we do have links bring up in-app popups, but to pages of big websites that haven't been 100% screened. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:25 am

@DavidBFox: I think the least safe is to have a link that opens up an external browser, like Safari on the iPhone/iPad... #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:26 am

@iPad_storytime: Also interesting move by some reviewers to refuse apps w/ social media links - http://t.co/Le9DnrQF from @bestappsforkids #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:26 am

@brooks_jones: @DeclicKids Agree--apps for kids should install with the highest privacy settings as the default #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:26 am

@DavidBFox: Then kids could theoretically go anywhere. And if the link is during the content portion, it breaks the flow of the experience #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:26 am

@dhfl143: @DavidBFox #storyappchat love the icon idea. Who oversees icon use? Who verifies that icon accurate with what is being done?
April 16, 2012, 1:27 am

@brooks_jones: @DavidBFox Agreed. Links don't belong in the middle of a story, IMHO. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:27 am

@DeclicKids: #storyappchat I dislike links to internet without warning nor protection. Breaks the kids experience on top of everything...
April 16, 2012, 1:27 am

@Allikidzcontent: It's very contradicting #storyappchat, because for those targeting kids, we can't use the best resources to make our app known or sell alot
April 16, 2012, 1:28 am

@DavidBFox: @dhfl143 until a government org steps in, it has to be self-regulated. Or if Apple sets up requirements. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:28 am

@Allikidzcontent: #storyappchat What do you think of weblinks that take kid to ed.resources(cultural institutions sites? Is that also a no-no?
April 16, 2012, 1:29 am

@Julia_Brannon: The most important thing is disclosure. I'm happy to see that the FTC is pushing for pre-purchase disclosure. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:30 am

@brooks_jones: RT @Julia_Brannon: The most important thing is disclosure. I'm happy to see that the FTC is pushing 4 pre-purchase disclosure. #storyappchat

@dhfl143: @DavidBFox I spoke 2some at apple and don't see that happening any time soon. #storyappchat

@brooks_jones: @dhfl143 Not surprised re: Apple. #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 1:32 am

@Allikidzcontent: I want 2 link 2 pictures/videos of historical character I'm talking about in app. I thought link would be a way, but now doubt #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:33 am

@iPad_storytime: I have issues w/ all in-app features http://t.co/y6r7rfWR [In-App Marketing & Other Features Kids Apps Could Do Without] #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:33 am

@brooks_jones: @Allikidzcontent Perhaps it would be better to embed your extra content #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:34 am

@DavidBFox: @Allikidzcontent What @Julia_Brannon said is correct. It's that you need to disclose the app has links before someone buys #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:35 am

@Allikidzcontent: @davidbfox Explain more about webhosted page inside app: is it a url you set up yourself and maintain?

#storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:35 am

@DavidBFox: @Allikidzcontent Yes, exactly. So I open a popup overlay window and inside fill it with content from a website. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:36 am

@Julia_Brannon: Sharing can be appropriate in a kids' app...such as in Toontastic the cartoon creation app. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:36 am

@DavidBFox: That would give you 100% control over what's in it, but not need to store it all in the app, and could update as needed. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:36 am

@Allikidzcontent: RT @ipad_storytime: RT @DeclicKids: Please explain about the (lightly) protected page, for parents & not for kids ? #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:36 am

@DavidBFox: @DavidBFox But if I opened say a Wikipedia page, that could have links that go to other pages and then to others... no control #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:37 am

@DeclicKids: @Allikidzcontent #storyappchat if you read french you can go on my website http://t.co/pOw4Fl3k but I also try to explain
April 16, 2012, 1:38 am

@DeclicKids: @Allikidzcontent #storyappchat main idea is to gather all social and marketing and "outside" material on a specific section of your app
April 16, 2012, 1:38 am

@DeclicKids: @Allikidzcontent #storyappchat and to make sure this is a little bit protected from tiny hands
April 16, 2012, 1:38 am

@DeclicKids: @Allikidzcontent #storyappchat you can make it a long tap for little kids
April 16, 2012, 1:38 am

@DeclicKids: @Allikidzcontent #storyappchat you can make it a password protected section for bigger kids
April 16, 2012, 1:39 am

@Allikidzcontent: @julia_brannon #storyappchat. Yes but Toontastic requieres some serious expensive developing..not an option for mine, I think.
April 16, 2012, 1:39 am

@brooks_jones: @DeclicKids Good ideas, all! #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 1:41 am

@Allikidzcontent: #Storyappchat These are great ideas, I haven't seen examples of these options you mention in any kids book app yet..have you?

April 16, 2012, 1:41 am

@Julia_Brannon: @DeclicKids Great ideas. There are ways to make this work for everyone. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:42 am

@dhfl143: #storyappchat perhaps Moms w/Apps or association of kid app reviewers verify apps (could self regulated assoc earn parents trust)?
April 16, 2012, 1:42 am

@brooks_jones: @dhfl143 @MomsWithApps has toyed with providing verification/authorization functions, check out their app #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:42 am

@DeclicKids: @Julia_Brannon #storyappchat Yes ! this is a baseline. Make marketing work for grownups, not for kids who should not be the target anyway...
April 16, 2012, 1:43 am

@iPad_storytime: @Allikidzcontent I've seen a lot of book apps w/ links all tucked away in an 'info' menu or 'about' page ... not much else #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:43 am

@Allikidzcontent: #storyappchat The issue for my app is in order to feature pics/videos of the historic character I'd need permission clearance (time & money)
April 16, 2012, 1:43 am

@brooks_jones: @Allikidzcontent Could you get someone to illustrate it instead? #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 1:44 am

@DeclicKids: @Allikidzcontent #storyappchat you might gather links in a "more info" section and warn kids and parents this goes outside ?
April 16, 2012, 1:44 am

@Allikidzcontent: #storyappchat So my idea of providing links directly to the cultural institutions was a way of avoiding this rights/ clearance -permissions
April 16, 2012, 1:44 am

@Julia_Brannon: @iPad_storytime Kids are explorers and can find any hidden links before grownups can! #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:45 am

@Allikidzcontent: @declickids #storyappchat. Yes, but it would still get rejected by those who don't want the app to take kid outside of it

@brooks_jones: ...being a formal vetting entity, but their app does recommend quality apps for families #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:48 am

@Allikidzcontent: #storyappchat Illustrations wouldn't work the same to portray his work, it would be my last resource
April 16, 2012, 1:48 am

@DavidBFox: @Allikidzcontent wondering how some websites would feel if you popped them up inside an app without asking first... #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:48 am

@iPad_storytime: @Julia_Brannon Very true! I often set my device to 'airplane' mode before handing it to my 5-year old for this reason. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:50 am

@Allikidzcontent: I don't think a museum would mind their link being inside a kids app, do you? #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:50 am

@queenbjan: looking for someone to talk prices on storybook app. I have simple plan and not willing to pay 2,000 + for the app #storyappchat

@brooks_jones: @cynthianugent Welcome to #storyappchat!


April 16, 2012, 1:53 am

April 16, 2012, 1:54 am

@Allikidzcontent: But @davidbfox ins't that exactly what ppl are saying no to: having link that goes 2 Safari or 2 specific youtube video, even? #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:54 am

@queenbjan: @iPad_storytime it isn't truly interactive. Every page follows the exact same format, very cut and dried. want pic words voice #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:54 am

@DavidBFox: @Allikidzcontent but it could get into a gray area if it seems that their content appears to be your content #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:54 am

@dhfl143: @Allikidzcontent you can request permissions from each museum --driving traffic to them usually not a problem #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:54 am

@brooks_jones: @queenbjan Then iBooks might be a better option for you. Without more interactivity, Apple may reject your storybook app #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:55 am

@DavidBFox: @Allikidzcontent they're saying you need to disclose that you do that... not never do it. If you do it, put it at the end. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:56 am

@dhfl143: @Allikidzcontent concern might be where kids go from there once they have left app environment #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:57 am

@queenbjan: @brooks_jones I just want picture words and voice to stay together. No biggie in my opinion. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:57 am

@iPad_storytime: @brooks_jones @queenbjan Good advice from Brooks ... check out some of the self-pub storybook app creation tools also. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:57 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan Apple is rejecting some story apps that don't have sufficient interactivity. Pushing devs towards iBooks instead #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:57 am

@brooks_jones: @queenbjan That is doable nowadays by someone with a little bit of technical know-how in iBooks. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 1:57 am

@DavidBFox: Oops, ditto what you said @brooks_jones #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 1:58 am

@queenbjan: @brooks_jones So who do I talk to? #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 1:58 am

@brooks_jones: @queenbjan If you definitely want an app, start with @PicPocketBooks. Otherwise, get a copy of the Red Jumper app Book Creator #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:00 am

@brooks_jones: @queenbjan ...and do it yourself! #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 2:00 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan The only way to sell an app for an iOS device is through the Apple iTunes store (unless your device is

jailbroken) #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:01 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan For Android devices, there's not much of a gatekeeper, so you could do pretty much what you want #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:02 am

@Allikidzcontent: @julia_brannon What would be an example of doing it "responsibly"? Specific suggestions? #storyappchat

@Julia_Brannon: Thanks to @brooks_jones @DavidBFox @iPad_Storytime for another great chat #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:03 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan For iBooks (which is what Book Creator makes), you could distribute those yourself. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:03 am

@queenbjan: @DavidBFox So people couldn't download it from my web page for an iPad? #storyappchat

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan Not if it's an app. They could if it's an iBook, but Apple has full control over apps that go on its devices. #storyappchat

@queenbjan: @DavidBFox Will it let the text scroll down? There is more text than available space alongside the picture. #storyappchat

@brooks_jones: And thanks as always to my fabulous #storyappchat co-hosts @iPad_storytime and @DavidBFox ! You guys are fantastic!

@iPad_storytime: @queenbjan @DavidBFox People can open a .pdf in iBooks of your book from a website, but no other features would be possible. #storyappchat

@Julia_Brannon: @Allikidzcontent full disclosure, links targeted to parents, realize that those links MAY hurt sales #storyappchat

@DavidBFox: Thanks co-hosts @Brooks_Jones and @iPad_storytime -- very fun and informative! #storyappchat

@Allikidzcontent: Thanks for all your suggestions #storyappchat. @julia_brannon I hope to hear more from you via twitter or email on this topic...Bye!

@iPad_storytime: Amen! RT @Julia_Brannon: @Allikidzcontent full disclosure, links targeted to parents, realize that those links MAY hurt sales #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:07 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan You might want to check out Apple's free iBooks Author and see if that might help you create what you want #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:07 am

@queenbjan: @iPad_storytime PDF doesn't work well - too much text to go with picture so it won't fit together on screen. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:07 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan I don't think Book Creator allows for scrollable text, but iBooks Author should handle that. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:08 am

@brooks_jones: @DavidBFox @queenbjan True, iBooks Author is pretty cool. You'll need a Mac running Lion for that. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:08 am

@Julia_Brannon: @Allikidzcontent You can contact me anytime via my aboutme page on my Twitter profile. Would love to chat more. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:08 am

@queenbjan: @DavidBFox Thanks for this information. #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 2:08 am

@DeclicKids: #storyappchat thanks !


April 16, 2012, 2:09 am

@brooks_jones: @DavidBFox Are you running Lion yet? #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 2:09 am

@queenbjan: @brooks_jones Mac running lion? #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 2:09 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan You're welcome, good luck!n #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 2:09 am

@DavidBFox: @brooks_jones I'm about to install Lion. But it's possible to install iBooks Author on 10.6 - I did it just to see it #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:10 am

@queenbjan: @brooks_jones I'm on a PC #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 2:10 am

@brooks_jones: @DavidBFox Yes, I remember @LizCastro saying the same thing. Were you impressed with iBooks Author? #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:11 am

@DavidBFox: Install iBooks Author on Snow Leopard (10.6.8): http://t.co/Z8Pp1FYK #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 2:11 am

@DavidBFox: @brooks_jones I barely used it. What I was looking for was an easy way to put together picture books... not a great match #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:13 am

@brooks_jones: @DavidBFox Would you say Book Creator is still the best WYSIWYG solution for PBs? #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:14 am

@iPad_storytime: @queenbjan A .pdf isn't great for sales, either. Most users want apps. Some venture into iBooks. Most don't make it to web. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:14 am

@DavidBFox: @brooks_jones but there are 3rd party templates available that might be a good match for PBs - check out @ibooktemplates #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:14 am

@brooks_jones: @queenbjan I'm pretty sure you do have to have a Mac for iBooks Author, at least for now. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:15 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan Yes, you need a Mac for iBooks Author. You need an iPad for Book Creator for iPad #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:15 am

@queenbjan: Then I may be back where I started... Is there someone who can do this for me without costing me an arm and a leg? #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:16 am

@DavidBFox: @brooks_jones iBook Creator, best thing I've seen so far, yes. But I'd like to see Mac app that does the same. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:16 am

@brooks_jones: @DavidBFox Me too! I hope someone's listening out there! #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 2:17 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan If you were willing to invest $2000 into it, you could put part of that into buying a used Mac, or borrowing one #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:18 am

@brooks_jones: @queenbjan You don't need a Mac for iBook Creator--just an iPad. I haven't played with it much, but it looked pretty easy. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:19 am

@queenbjan: @DavidBFox My pockets aren't that deep. I can't go $2000. That's why I was still looking around.n #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:19 am

@DavidBFox: @brooks_jones but it wouldn't allow for scrolling text. Sounds like that's critical for @queenbjan's book #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:19 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan used Macs on Craigslist that run Lion might much less... $500? #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:20 am

@queenbjan: @brooks_jones I don't have an iPad either. I live on a shoestring. I hope to have one one day, however. #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:21 am

@brooks_jones: @queenbjan @DavidBFox I just (back in Jan.) bought a used iMac for around $900. Not too shabby! #storyappchat
April 16, 2012, 2:22 am

@queenbjan: @DavidBFox Which doesn't allow for scrolling text? #storyappchat


April 16, 2012, 2:22 am

@DavidBFox: @queenbjan Wonder if your local library might have Macs available to use for free as well. #storyappchat
