## What is PAN | DA?

PAN | DA — Learn words. Switch languages. Have fun together.

PAN | DA began when we were looking for a simple way to practise speech and vocabulary regularly with our son at home and on the go. We wanted to make use of short everyday moments and practise what his speech therapist had recommended between appointments. Our son has developmental dysphasia, and that experience strongly shaped the app.

PAN | DA is designed for shared practice between a young child and an adult. Its picture-based activities can support children learning their first words, expanding their vocabulary or growing up with more than one language.

6 LANGUAGES IN ONE APP
Practise in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German and Czech. Version 1.3 also adds British English vocabulary and pronunciation alongside US English. Every word can be spoken aloud using a device voice.

750+ ILLUSTRATED CARDS
Explore more than 25 categories, including animals, vehicles, food, household items, nature, emotions, colours, body parts, clothes, actions, shapes, places, professions and musical instruments.

7 WAYS TO PRACTISE
• Repeat — browse picture cards and hear each word
• Find — choose the correct picture after hearing a word
• Hear & Find — recognise animals and objects by sound
• Phrases — practise short, everyday sentences
• Memory — find matching picture pairs
• Find by Sentence — recognise a familiar word in connected speech
• Odd One Out — practise categorisation at an adaptive difficulty

GUIDED DAILY PRACTICE
PAN | DA recommends a short daily session, remembers which cards have already been seen and brings words back for review. Vocabulary is adjusted to the child’s selected communication level.

MADE FOR FAMILIES
• Use the same cards in more than one language
• Add your own cards with photos of family members and classmates

FREE AND PREMIUM

PAN | DA is an educational practice tool. It does not provide a diagnosis and does not replace advice or therapy from a qualified professional.

A monthly subscription is available. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it in your Apple ID settings.
