Shape Match & Learn vs Pinyin Learner

Shape Match & Learn turns first words into a game a small child can play alone. Every round is three simple steps: 1. Match the shape — drag the emoji onto its turned-around shadow. 2. Learn the word — tap the right word out of a few choices, said out loud. 3. Keep it — the emoji comes to life and moves into your child's own world. 27 WORLDS, 540 WORDS Farm, Ocean, Sky, Picnic, Feelings, Safari, Space, Weather, Sports, Fantasy, Kitchen and more. Each world adds twenty new emoji friends to a scene your child fills up over time. The first seven worlds are free, in every language. THREE LANGUAGES TO LEARN IN English, Spanish and French — each with its own complete 540-word catalogue, said aloud in that language's voice. You choose the learning language in Settings, and the menus follow whichever language you prefer, chosen separately. An English-speaking parent can set their child to learn Spanish without a single menu changing. MADE FOR SMALL HANDS • No timers, no scores, no way to lose.

Pinyin Memory is a quiet place to keep the Chinese you meet --- words, lines, phrases --- and re-meet them later. Not a course. Not a translator. A personal memory center for one learner at a time. The pitch is simple: capture in 5 seconds, re-meet through play. No streaks shoving you back into the app. No grades. No leaderboards. Just your corpus, your pace, your mood. --- What you get --- CAPTURE • One-screen entry: type a hanzi, get auto-pinyin and per-character tone colors. • Tag it. Add a meaning in your language. Save. Done. • Decomposer: paste any Chinese text, tap segments to save. DICTIONARY • Your corpus, searchable across hanzi, pinyin, and meaning. • Filter by tag, kind, or how shaky you are on it. • Every entry has its own postcard with notes and TTS. RE-MEETING (the heart of it) • Recall - infinite 4-direction swipe self-test. Forget, not sure, almost, know. Cards keep coming. • Match - memory pair game from 4×4 to 10×10. • Cloze - fill in the missing character from four options. • Flashback - Tinder-style quick recognition for honest self-rating. PRACTICE • Tone Tap - hear a syllable, tap the tone. • Tone Twin - find the same-tone-pattern pair in a grid. • Daily Drop - one fresh word per day. Keep or skip. • Mosaic - drag hanzi cards to build a sentence from a translation. INSIGHTS • Streak, memory size, last-7-days bars, 5-week heatmap, by-tag breakdown. • All offline, all from your own review events. --- Local-only by design --- No account. No cloud. No analytics. No tracking pixel. No third-party SDKs hidden in the corners. Your dictionary lives in a SQLite file on your phone. Export it anytime as JSON. Delete the app, the data goes too. --- Paper & Ink design --- Warm paper, cast ink, hand-stamped serial. Italic Fraunces headings, Geist body, Caveat handwriting for your own meanings, Noto Serif SC for the hanzi. Tone colors that work with the palette --- not traffic-light red/yellow/green.
