Three Apples: Armenian Tales

Bring Armenian storytime home.

Step into a world of clever characters, colourful villages and stories passed from one generation to the next. Three Apples brings tales in Eastern and Western Armenian to Android phones and tablets, with animated illustrations, Armenian narration and music made for each tale.

Read together, listen along, or hide the words and enjoy the pictures. There is something to discover on every page.

10+ tales to explore
Discover tales inspired by Hovhannes Tumanyan, alongside stories from the Armenian folk tradition. Find your next story by author, length or Armenian language, and return to the stories your family loves whenever storytime calls.

Follow the story, word by word
Listen to Armenian narration while the words light up on the page. Adjust the text size and highlighting to suit your reader, pause and read together at your own pace, or turn off the text to enjoy the animated artwork. Tap the pictures to discover their little movements and surprises.

Eastern and Western Armenian
Celebrate the voices and traditions of both Eastern and Western Armenian. Each tale is clearly labelled by its Armenian variety, making it easy to find familiar favourites and discover something new. Every story pairs Armenian text with Armenian narration. Menus are available in English and Armenian.

Start with two free stories
The Liar and Kikos are free, with no subscription needed. Both are built into the app and work offline.

A subscription opens every other tale in the library while it is active. Choose a monthly or yearly plan that renews automatically, or a month or a year paid once, which suits a child's Google Account supervised by a parent. Every plan includes the same stories. More tales are planned for future updates and will join the subscription library.

Subscription tales download from Google Play and can then be read offline. The subscription is confirmed with Google Play at least once every 14 days, so connect to the internet now and then to keep them open.

A quieter space for families
No ads, accounts, analytics or tracking. Reading history and preferences stay on your device and are not sent to Markael Studio. Purchases, parent settings and outside links sit behind a parental gate.

About subscriptions
Your local price is shown before you buy. Monthly and yearly plans renew automatically until cancelled in Google Play: open the Play Store, then Payments & subscriptions. Uninstalling the app doesn't cancel a subscription. Restore a purchase from the Parents screen. The two free stories remain available after a subscription ends.

Requires Android 13 or later.
