Character education in early childhood education (ECE) plays a crucial role in shaping children's morals and personalities during the golden age of development. However, the availability of engaging, interactive, and technology-based Islamic storytelling media remains limited, creating a need for innovative learning media that can enhance children's learning interest while instilling positive character values. This study aimed to develop an Android-based interactive Islamic storytelling application as a learning medium to strengthen character education among early childhood learners through exemplary stories of the Prophet Muhammad's companions. The study employed the Research and Development (R&D) method by adapting the Borg and Gall model, which consists of needs analysis, planning, product development, expert validation, product revision, limited field testing, and final product development. The research resulted in an Android application featuring educational animated videos about Abu Bakr Ash-Shiddiq, Ali ibn Abi Talib, Umar ibn Al-Khattab, and Muadh ibn Jabal. The application provides a simple, attractive, and user-friendly interface that supports interactive learning experiences for young children. The developed media has the potential to increase learning motivation while fostering essential character values, including honesty (shiddiq), trustworthiness (amanah), wisdom (fathanah), and the ability to convey goodness (tabligh). Therefore, the Android-based interactive Islamic storytelling application can serve as an effective alternative learning medium to support character education for early childhood learners in the digital era.
