GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Removing the need for Yoto Cards to access favorite content simplifies the experience for young children and could make the devices more appealing to parents seeking screen-free entertainment. However, the Player's price jump from $110 to $150 may test customer loyalty, especially as competition in kid-focused audio tech grows.
