What is the battery?

Each companion has a battery. Teaching your companion uses it up, a little at a time, and the companion shows how it feels.

• 

  Plenty left

  Bright and ready.

• 

  Getting low

  Drowsy and yawning.

• 

  Empty

  Fast asleep.

• 

  Unlimited

  Plus never runs out.

  Coming soon

What your child sees

Your child sees a battery picture and a short line from the companion, such as "Pip has lots of energy!" or "Pip is getting sleepy." As the battery goes down, the companion gets drowsy and yawns. When it runs out, the companion falls asleep.

Your child never sees a number. See Why your child sees no battery number.

How much there is

How much battery there is, and when it comes back, depends on the plan.

• Free: 20 battery to try. It is a one-time amount and it does not recharge.
• Core: 30 battery each week. It goes back to full every Monday at 8 AM.
• Plus (coming soon): unlimited battery. Plus never runs out of battery.

See When the battery recharges.

What does not use it

Missions, the Room, the Shop, practicing something already taught and building in the Workshop do not use the battery. Only teaching does. See What uses the battery.
