PenForm vs TinyTracer

Learn to write beautifully, one letter at a time. PenForm is a handwriting coach that actually grades your handwriting, not just a tracing app. Write a letter with your Apple Pencil or your finger, and PenForm scores it on shape, slant, size, baseline, and smoothness. Then it tells you exactly what to fix, right there on the page. FIVE SCRIPTS, ONE APP • Print: the fundamentals, from your first letter to full sentences • Cursive: grouped by stroke family, the way real handwriting programs teach it • Italic: a refined, slanted everyday hand • Greek: learn the alphabet used across math, science, and the Greek language • Russian (Cyrillic): the alphabet behind Russian and other Slavic languages Whether you're a kid building fine motor skills, an adult fixing decades-old handwriting habits, or someone learning a new alphabet from scratch, there's a course for you. LEARN AT YOUR OWN PACE Lessons unfold in a guided path, one small step at a time: new letters, then words, then sentences, each building on the last. Don't want to follow the path?

TinyTracer teaches real handwriting — not tap-to-trace games, but actual stroke-guided letter formation your child practices with their finger or Apple Pencil, the same way they'll write on paper. WHAT MAKES TINYTRACER DIFFERENT • Real stroke guidance. Every letter, number, word, and sentence uses a real guide path with correct stroke order and direction — the habit sticks, not just shape recognition. • Phonics built in. Letters aren't just named — kids hear the letter name, its sound, and a real word that uses it, together, the way early-literacy research says actually works. • A growing library beyond the alphabet. Sight words with spoken example sentences, simple math, a coloring book, matching and sorting games, and pattern practice — all built around the same real-stroke approach, not generic tap-and-go minigames. • Grows with your child. Four age-appropriate stages — Toddler, Pre-Writer, Tracer, and Author — so the same app that teaches a 3-year-old to trace a circle later teaches a 7-year-old to write full sentences. No new app to find later. • A companion that makes practice something to look forward to. Kids pick a buddy mascot and learn real milestones as they practice — new gear that shows up right in the activity, new friends to discover, each one a genuine surprise tied to real progress, not a countdown or a nag. • Real progress, for real parents. A Parent Dashboard shows exactly what your child has practiced, for how long, streaks, and where they could use a bit more — not vanity badges. • Built with privacy first. No ads. No third-party trackers or analytics SDKs. No account or sign-in required. Every purchase and setting is protected behind a Parent Gate your child can't get past on their own. FOUR STAGES, ONE APP Toddler — first pencil control, big shapes, scribble time, counting fun, zero pressure. Pre-Writer — dot-to-dot, guided pre-writing shapes, matching games, size and pattern practice. Tracer — the full alphabet, numbers, words, sight words, and phonics. Author — full sentences, simple math, and independent handwriting. A standalone Coloring Book is also available from every stage's home screen. Letters and shape tracing are always free. A subscription unlocks the full library — numbers, words, sentences, sight words, simple math, coloring pages, matching and sorting games, pattern practice, dot-to-dot, and mission content — across every stage.
