It lets users receive custom greetings, as well as their personal reminders, calendar events, recently played music, or personal notes.

Kids and parents both will also have drawing activities such as Tic-Tac-Toe and Spaceman as well as art packs including Sesame Street to play together. Further, the games and art activities will feature various Disney characters, including Anna and Elsa from Frozen, Woody and Buzz from Toy Story.
