FAQs for Think Wittsy STEM-Based Toys and Books
Augmented Reality (AR) enhances real-world experiences by overlaying
digital content, such as animations or interactive features, through a
smartphone or tablet. Think Wittsy products, like the "Fantastic Fossil Frenzy,"
use AR to bring educational concepts to life, making learning immersive and
fun.
Not all of our toys are AR-enabled. Our AR-enabled products include the "Fantastic Fossil Frenzy" and the "Earthworm Earnie Explores" scratch book, “Transport Through Time”, “Ultimate Underwater Utopia” sticker book and many more.
To access the AR features, download the Think Wittsy app from the Apple Store or Google Play Store. Once downloaded, follow the instructions inside your book and scan the images to get an immersive experience.
If you lose your stylus, you can purchase a replacement from the
"Bundles and Save" section on our website.
If your AR objects are stuck, simply click the refresh button located below
the AR view. This will realign the objects to the center and let you continue
seamlessly.
