Troubleshooting
Tonie character not playing when placed on Toniebox.
Ensure the Toniebox is turned on and fully charged or connected to power. Check that the Tonie character is placed securely on the Toniebox's magnetic surface. Verify your Toniebox is connected to Wi-Fi, especially for the first-time download of content.
Sound is too low or not clear.
Adjust the volume on the Toniebox by squeezing its ears. Check for any obstructions around the Toniebox speaker. Ensure the Tonie character is clean and properly seated.
Toniebox not recognizing the Tonie character.
Remove the Tonie character and place it back on the Toniebox, ensuring firm magnetic contact. If the issue persists, try resetting your Toniebox (consult your Toniebox manual for specific instructions).
Content is interrupted or skips.
This can sometimes occur during the initial content download if the Wi-Fi signal is weak. Move the Toniebox closer to your Wi-Fi router. Once fully downloaded, the content plays directly from the Toniebox's memory, so interruptions should cease.
