About Tell

Listen to children and family audiobooks, and share stories with loved ones!

What Tell Is Used For

Tell appears to be a parenting app focused on children’s and family audiobooks, with a sharing angle for sending stories to loved ones. Based on the metadata, it is likely used by parents or caregivers who want a phone-based way to play narrated stories and keep family members connected through shared listening experiences.

The listed permissions suggest the app may handle media and communication-related tasks. Access to the microphone, camera, contacts, photos, and storage could support recording or capturing content, selecting media, and sharing it with other people. Internet and notification permissions indicate it may also stream, sync, or send updates, while foreground service and wake lock permissions may help keep playback or recording active. As a phone app, it seems best suited for everyday use on a personal device rather than a large-screen setup.
