Product
Moshi is designed for kids but it can be enjoyed by any age group, babies, toddlers, infants, children, teenagers, and even adults!
Many experts recommend not to use mobile devices before sleeping. Moshi’s enchanting audio-only content means there is no need for screens at bedtime.
The stories and meditations in the app have been written and designed to be read in a very specific way with calming narration, sleepy audio effects and soothing background music/sounds that relax kids into a wonderfully restful state.
The content for subscribers is updated on a weekly basis. This could be a story, music, sound or meditation.
You can now create multiple playlists. To start by creating your own playlist of Moshi tracks, tap on Playlists at the bottom right tab of the navigation menu:
- Tap the “Create a New Custom Playlist” button at the top of the screen.
- Give your playlist a name and tap the button “Create playlist”.
You can create up to 30 custom playlists! You will find a list of your custom playlists under the “Playlists” tab in the Playlists menu.
You can add tracks to your playlist from your favorites which you can find under the Favorites’ tab by tapping the “add to playlist” icon at the top right corner of the track.
You can also add tracks to your custom playlists from the player by tapping the “add to your playlist” icon. You will find a list of all your custom playlists under the “Playlists” tab. You can reorder by holding & pressing on the track’s cell.
If you need to delete a track from your custom playlist swipe right on the track you want to remove.
You cannot edit or change the order of the suggested playlists that we have already provided.

If Moshi tracks keep stopping whilst the app is running in the background:
- Make sure there is enough storage space on your device and delete any unused apps to free up space.
- If you have any optimization apps (e.g. Clean Master, Droid Optimizer) that remove status bar notifications, disable or uninstall them.
If you have already done this and the problem persists, go to your device’s settings, tap on Apps and find Moshi. Then check for the following:
- Ensure Notifications are allowed.
- Tap on Battery and ensure that “Allow background activity” is turned on.
- In the Battery section, Tap “Optimise battery usage” and ensure that Moshi is not enabled for battery optimisation.
