Made for every age

Easy to read, easy to hold, easy to trust

Baba was built for a grandmother first. Every setting she needed is in one place: bigger words, more space, stronger colours and a voice that reads to her.

Increase contrast

Deeper colours and clearer dividers, in light or dark appearance.

Button shapes

Outlines around every button, the way buttons used to look.

Reduce motion

Turns off animations, and follows the iPhone or iPad setting automatically.

Read aloud

Any article read in Ukrainian or English, from half speed to one and a half.

Make the words as large as you need

Baba lets you enlarge the text up to 1.8 times, add space between lines and raise the contrast. Try it on this sample story, and switch it between languages the way the app does.

Lviv volunteers sew ten thousand vyshyvankas for soldiers' families

In detail

Set up in a minute

When Baba opens for the first time it asks about language, faith, calendar, sources, text size and notifications, one question per screen. A family member can set it up once and hand the iPad back.

Works with VoiceOver

Every control has a spoken label for people who use VoiceOver.

Questions

Can I set it up for my parents?

Yes. The first-run setup takes about a minute, and every choice can be changed later in Settings.
