How can I share apps between Innotab 1 and Innotab 2? I figured it can be done (because the apps are the same, even Vtech says that they are compatible), but I can't transfer an app from Innotab 1 to Innotab 2 or vice versa. I have one account with two profiles, and my kids naturally want the same games! And I don't want to pay for them twice - that's the main reason I bought for my other son also an Innotab :(

It should work. Unfortunately I do not have an innotab max to know if it really does work. But it should work for all innotabs.

Little Dot, I spent sometime on leapfrog.com reading about compatibility. From my understand, they should be able to work together. I would recommend looking on their website or having a chat with one of their reps to fully answer your question.

The app card is like a gift card- it comes with a code on the back. You enter the code onto Leapfrog's website, and then you have a $20 credit to download music, videos, games, or books. You can narrow your search based on product and search, for example, for only Leappad 2 apps. You must install the Leappad Connect software on you computer/Leappad before you can transfer the new apps to the Leappad. The Leappad Connect software is free with your Leappad.

I bought both the Explorer and LeapPad for my 3 and 5 year olds for Christmas. I bought a couple of game cartridges as well as app cards. How do you install the apps in both? I was told at TRU that you could only install an app on one device. Good to know that he was wrong.

You may have already purchased it, but I just wanted to warn you that in our experience Vtech products don not last long. My son has the original Innotab only because his grandparents bought it for him. He loved it, but it just suddenly quit and won't work anymore. From some of the reviews I have read, I guess we were lucky it lasted about 7 months. We have never had a Vtech product that didn't last longer than that. And, the customer support never answered our emails or helped us. We will never buy another Vtech product again.

All games marked for the Explorer / Explorer GS / LeapPad / LeadPad 2 are interchangeable. We have an Explorer and a LeapPad 2 and have ~6 game cartridges for the Explorer that my son uses in his new LeapPad 2 with no issues. You can also download and install Leapster Connect on your computer and buy games online to download directly onto any of the 4 devices listed above. This way you don't have to worry about losing cartridges.

A big bonus is that if you buy a download game, it works on multiple leap pads. So 1 game can be used on my 2 kids leap pad tablets.

I also purchased to upgrade and your apps will transfer as long as you paid for them. If they came installed on the old device, you have to purchase them again. Log into the Leapfrog parent portal to register and sync new leap pad! Sometimes it takes more than one try! Good luck!

Everything we've gotten has been from VTech. They said you should be able to download others, but when we tried, it didn't work. The VTech ebooks, games, and music apps have all been good, but the number of items currently the "rage" with children are limited. While our child has played some of them a few times and we use it for parts of home schooling, they haven't been something that he plays repeatedly as he has others on my husband's tablet.

I know you can on the Leap Pad, but not sure about Leap Pad 2. Sorry that I couldn't be more help to you.

Whenever I look, downloads do cost more. However, you can currently use them on three leappads. I have three kids that always want the same thing... so yay there! -- I did get three different leappads so they would be able to locate them quickly. They each come with their own "special" programs ... something to keep in mind.

Can I download an app to more than one device? Can I download an app to more than one LeapPad or Explorer handheld? Yes, learning apps purchased in the App Center can be saved to three (3) LeapFrog compatible devices (LeapPad, LeapPad2, LeapPad Ultra, LeapsterGS, or Leapster Explorer) at a time as long as all three devices share a common parent account email address. For LeapPad Ultra, available apps will automatically download to the device as long as there is a wifi connection and the LeapPad Ultra is set up with the parent account email address used to purchase the apps. For all other devices, to download an app to a second or third device: 1. Launch the LeapFrog Connect application, power on your handheld, and connect to the computer with the USB cable. 2. From the LeapFrog Connect home page, choose a player name on the Leapster Explorer, LeapsterGS, LeapPad, or LeapPad2 that you want to save the learning app to. 3. Click the On This LeapPad /On This Leapster Explorer tab in LeapFrog Connect. 4. Check the box next to the learning app that you want to save to your device. 5. Click "Save Changes" to sync. You'll know when syncing is complete when you see "Sync complete". Please note: If you don't see the app you want to save, check that the LeapFrog parent account matches the account that purchased the app. If it doesn't, you'll need to change the parent account associated with the device. Click Parent Account at the top of your screen, then log in with the email address and password that purchased the learning app. Indicate who plays with each player name on the handheld. Then repeat steps Yes No

Hello,they have games and apps for older children (which I haven't tried yet since mine are 5 and 2 years old). Plus the new Innotab 2S is Wifi ready so that would probably be really cool for her.

You can have your purchased games, creativity apps, ebooks, music, and videos on up to 3 devices at once. Here is an FAQ from LeapFrog.com that can help you out: http://bit.ly/NUjEZd
