As long as you reinstalled from the same Apple ID that you used to purchase the app, you won’t be charged. More information on downloading past purchases http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

6. Where do I insert my promo code?

Please open the App Store and the Today Tab. In the top right corner, tap on your profile and then on “redeem code”.

Nighty Night

1. I have bought the iPad version of Nighty Night and extra animals as well, but when I try to reload my purchases on my iPhone, it says I have to buy them again.

Nighty Night has two separate versions, one for iPad and one for iPhone. This means you have to buy the iPhone version separately as well as the In-App-Purchases.

2. I’ve bought extra animals but now I cannot find them anymore. Do I have to buy them again?

Please press the “Restore purchases” button on the “More animals” screen. Then all in app purchases should be back without you having to buy them again. Make sure you are logged in with the same Apple ID you made the original purchases with.

3. The singing snowman is gone. How do I get it back?

The singing snowman is a special feature in our Christmas version of Nighty Night, which is provided in November of every year.

Little Fox Nursery Rhymes

1. When I try to record, although the recording button lights up appropriately, when I try to play it back there is no sound.

iOS requires that you switch on the microphone functionality for the Little Fox. Please go to device Settings – Privacy and then microphone and enable the Little Fox there. Then everything should work again.
