About

Tiko Say

Features
Read full description

Say is a calm speech-practice app for children. Pick a category, see one big friendly card, hear its word, and say it back โ€” a correct word triggers a joyful celebration and the next card appears by itself. There is never a wrong-buzzer, a red cross or a score. If a word isn't heard, Say simply listens again, replays the word, and keeps Skip within reach โ€” no child ever gets stuck. - Three starter categories: Animals, Food and Vehicles - Every card is editable: what is shown, what is said, and which words count as correct - Parents can add their own cards, hide cards and reorder them per language - Speech recognition runs on the device where supported; recordings are never stored or uploaded - Works in multiple languages and follows your Tiko language setting - Child mode keeps the screen focused and distraction-free Say is part of Tiko, a child-first universe of small, focused communication and learning tools.
