Logofin's articulation app offers children with pronunciation disorders effective, playful and sound-gesture-based articulation training according to the TOLGS system. It can also be used to train clear pronunciation, as well as with German as a second language (DAZ). The articulation app follows the idea of a loud gesture-based articulation training that gently increases in difficulty. The app's 6 modules take the child on a learning journey and offer the opportunity to practice any desired target sound safely and step by step. This is guaranteed by the 6 training modules, which lead from the individual sound level, through the syllable level, the word level and finally to the sentence level. The app can be tested free of charge with full functionality for 14 days. After that, a paid subscription will be activated automatically, which is required to continue using the app without limitations.
