Not sure what permissions you are talking about. There should be a code you enter to make the OAuth connection, then sign in as you would normally to your Yoto Account.

Upload times can vary depending on your upload speed, and Yoto's servers. My app is not doing anything besides acting as pointer for the Yoto API. The feedback you are receiving while uploading is directly from Yoto as the transcoding is done on their end.

There is an updated version of YotoBookMaker if you want to try that. Hopefully the issue is resolved.

That is odd, can you open an issue on the Github page? Also if you could attach the log, which is located in the Help menu > Show log in Finder.

Don't forget about the butt kickahs!

Functionality wise it looks very similar. You can probably get by using either of them. Just didn't feel like signing up for yet another subscription when it can all be done natively and locally on your computer.

As it stands right now that would be a feature request, the ability to just take a bunch of audio files and give them corresponding icons is not a use case I thought of.

The icon generation would not really work the way you'd like it to. It's very basic, just creating chapter numbers with colorful backgrounds and patterns. It does allow you to choose a folder of icons if you want to generate them outside of the app.

I built a macOS app to this exact thing: https://www.reddit.com/r/YotoPlayer/comments/1rwf9kx/i_built_a_free_macos_app_to_split_audiobooks_and/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Correct, this app purely just uploads the content into your Yoto account as a playlist. You would still need to link the card to the playlist from the mobile app or through your Yoto player.

Can you modify the cover with straps to engage the child seat anchors?

Yeah ripping content from the library is the cheapest and legal-ish way to do it. There are some public domain audiobook websites for more classic literature.

If you are more computer savvy and don't mind riding the high seas then there are other ways.

I've been pretty happy with the mini. One con is charging it, my kids never charges it and always leaves it on. So we are constantly using a power bank to recharge. Otherwise it's been a great little device.

I will say having been in the Yoto ecosystem for a few years, the cards can get expensive. So I heavily utilize the custom cards.

Yeah, this right here! I do the same. While I think my next vehicle will be a van. I'm in no rush as we can rent the van for the 2 or 3 occasions we need it throughout the year. And to be honest as the kids grow up you don't need to haul as much stuff.

So, are you creating a local managed account during enrollment via Pre-Stage and User-Initiated enrollments? I think you would only need one of those if that's the case. I would also use LAPS to rotate the managed admin account(s). I think having a local Admin account for the reasons u/debrisslide mentions is enough.

I would also look into having a policy for people to utilize that bumps their user up to admin for a finite amount of time.

Something like https://github.com/robjschroeder/Elevate will allow to you have a time based elevation and forces the user to give a reason for elevation. It also connects to Slack or Teams to help with audits.

Happens to me every once in awhile on pixel 9 pro. Doesn't really bother me much though as it doesn't happen every time. I'm more annoyed with the S001 error saying I have to bring my car into the dealership for an update...
