Two homes

Wherever they're sleeping,
the voices go too

Co-parents on a rotation. A weekend at Grandma's. Camp. Make a stay code, and the house the kids are at hears every recording they'd hear at home — for exactly the days they're there.

How it works

A code, a rhythm, and one rule

  1. Make a stay

    From the Family tab, choose which kids are going, and whether it's always or a rotation — every other week, 2-2-3, alternate weekends, whatever your calendar actually is.

  2. Send the code

    The other house enters STAY-XXXX-XXXX at joinvoicebooks.com and matches each child to their profile there. No shared password, no second account for the kids.

  3. The voices follow the kids

    The house the child is at hears every voice. The house they're away from hears only its own. The rotation decides which is which, in their time zone.

  4. End it any time

    Either house can end a stay. Nothing is copied, so ending it simply stops the sharing — no recordings to chase down.

Designed for real custody, not a demo

Any pattern of whole weeks

One to six weeks, any shape. The presets fill the grid; the grid is yours to change.

Each house chooses whose voices travel

Everyone's recordings go unless a house says otherwise. A new grown-up invited later travels too.

Shares back, if the host says so

The host house can send its own recordings home again, or keep them for the stay.

Never a shared login

Each house is its own family with its own grown-ups, PIN and plan. A stay is a link, not a key.

Listens still count

A book heard at Dad's is credited to the child's profile, and the artist is told, wherever they recorded it.

For grandparents and camp, too

"Always" is a rhythm. A stay with no end date is how Grandma's house becomes a second home for the stories.

Every other week she's at her dad's. Now every other week his phone has my recordings on it, and mine has his. She just hears both of us. Neither of us had to ask.

Make a stay code from the Family tab. It takes a minute.

Questions about stays

The other house needs a Voicebooks family of its own, which is free. A stay works on every plan on both sides.
The family that made the stay reschedules it. The pattern is a grid of whole weeks; change it and the sharing follows.
Only the recordings made for the children on the stay, only while the children are there, and only from the grown-ups your house hasn't excluded.
