What's New in Learn to Talk

1.0.7

August 8, 2026

Little fixes that make a big difference: • Dig & Place (the construction word game) had a stuck spot — tapping the glowing zone on "Put it ON!" didn't count. Now every round plays through to the big finish. • Tidied the toyroom: removed a toy chest that pointed to an old, retired corner of the app. • The grown-ups area now always opens full-screen — no more half-size screen after the free week. • Link to new app for bedtime, Sleepy Train, now says hello in the grown-ups corner. Made by one parent-developer. If Talk & Listen helps your little talker, a review truly helps us keep building.

Great app for toddlers

This app will be a sure hit among toddlers that love vehicles. In terms of updates I’d like to see this branch out to other mini activities that would ask for their child’s interests and show catered cards that’ll help with their vocabulary. Highly recommend this app!

Response from developer

Thank you! Love this idea — activities that pick up on what a kid is already obsessed with and build vocabulary from there is exactly the direction we want to go. Adding it to the list for consideration. Really appreciate you taking the time to write this out.

Fantastic!

Have been working with our kiddo on pronunciations - this app has been a great find and is really helpful along the speech journey! Highly recommend!

Thank you! Hearing it's helping with pronunciation practice at home is the best feedback we could get. Wishing you and your kiddo well on the speech journey!

Not a game, not an effective learning app

This isn't a fun game, and it's not a learning experience with any integrity. The vocabulary choices are bizarre - some simple words like "boom," but then "cement mixer," "mobile crane," "convertible," "motorcycle weaves." Who puts "weaves" in a vocab app for 3-year-olds?
Good reading apps give kids control over the phonemes - letting them drag to scrub audio, highlight words as they go. This has none of that. The spoken text screens are weakly thought through. My preschooler would just randomly swipe for a bit and cast it away.
I couldn't find any game element at all. Disappointing.

Response from developer

Thanks for trying Little Wheels and for taking the time to write a review. Little Wheels is a calm, speech and vocabulary app for vehicle loving toddlers. It is not a reading app or a game app, so you will see real vehicle words like “cement mixer” and “mobile crane.” Those are in there on purpose for kids who want to name the vehicles they see with objects they already love. You are right that some parents may want more direction. I am adding clearer parent tips on how to use the “Hear it → Stretch it → Say it” flow and how to sit and listen to the vehicle stories together, repeat the action words, and then let your child explore on their own. If you were looking for tap to highlight reading or more game style mechanics, that is a different type of app than what Little Wheels is trying to be right now. I still would like to hear what your preschooler liked or did not like so I can keep improving. You can email me at sean@recordcreativeco.com

Hour of fun!

Safe, fun, interactive this app has it all. I can’t recommend it enough for little ones who want constructive screen time that is stimulating.

Thank you for the kind words!

Fun and easy to navigate!

Great supplement to my five year old’s reading journey! Allows her to practice more on her own while giving me a much needed break!! 😄

Response from developer

Thanks so much! I'm adding a way for parents to record soon that may make it even easier to practice on her own!
