Learn French Alphabet ABC
Read full descriptionHide full description
é è ê ë — four accents on one letter, and each one changes the sound. French spelling is famously tricky, and it all starts with the alphabet. This app is built for French specifically: stroke order hand-drawn for all 42 letters the way French schools teach them (œ and æ included), real recordings of every letter's name — « e accent aigu », « c cédille », « e dans l'o » — and the pronunciation rules that make French sound French: silent final consonants, nasal vowels, liaison. Then it makes you write every letter and scores your handwriting in real time. WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT: ▸ Handwriting canvas scores every stroke — build real muscle memory ▸ all 42 letters and accented forms — é è ê ç à œ and more ▸ Hear the pronunciation of every letter ▸ 3 quiz modes: letter→sound, sound→letter, audio→letter ▸ Listening drills — hear it, then write it from memory STAY CONSISTENT: ▸ Daily Challenge — 8 questions picked from your weakest letters ▸ Spaced repetition (SM-2) schedules each letter's review ▸ Streak counter & achievement badges keep you coming back ▸ Weekly charts show practice time & accuracy trends DESIGNED FOR REAL LEARNING: ▸ Step-by-step lessons from easy to hard ▸ Create custom letter groups for focused drills ▸ Dark mode for late-night sessions Dreaming of Paris, preparing for DELF, or starting French from zero — this is the fastest path to reading it right.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dictee at none against Learn French Alphabet ABC's 1. Dictee also leads on ads (none vs shown). Learn French Alphabet ABC's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 6 months) and iOS requirement (15.5 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
