Learn to Read! Use this app with your child to help them learn to read quickly. It displays lowercase and uppercase letters, as well as 2- and 3-character syllables, and provides audio pronunciation. The app features an easy-to-use interface with a points system. In the settings, you can enable or disable 3-letter syllables and the characters ä & ö. Adjusting the timing of when a syllable is automatically spoken turns it into a fun game, allowing the user to try reading the syllable before hearing it aloud. Scientific studies suggest that learning from syllables is easier than learning from whole words. My son learned to read with this app at the age of 5! Short syllables prevent exhaustion and lower the barrier to trying. The simple user interface, free of childish characters, makes this app suitable not only for children but also for older individuals who struggle with reading. Currently, pronunciation follows Finnish rules. In English, pronunciations may vary, and we are continuously working to improve the app. Tap 50% right side of the syllable area for add +1 point (correct answer) or 40% left side for no point.
