Make speech therapy fun with Fonemo Plus+. When you buy Fonemo Plus+ you get all speech sounds automatically. "I really liked that the app is easy to setup and understand. I think this is a nice alternative to the standard speech practice sheets that are often sent home." says Amanda Blackburn, reviewer on the website iHeartThisApp. Fonemo Plus+ is a tool to help children with speech sound disorders. With Fonemo Plus+ you can practice for instance the sound s in many ways. To make the training of speech sounds fun, Fonemo Plus+ works as a game. Saying words out loud is part of the game. You can record the childs pronunciation and together you can listen to it. If you have played the game memory you can play Fonemo Plus+. Pair cards with images that are alike. In Fonemo Plus+ all the images contain words with the current speech sound. Whenever you wonder how a word is pronounced the teddy bear can help you. Poke the teddy in the belly and teddy will tell you whatβs on the card. Then you can press the microphone that you will find on the game board, repeat the word and listen to it. The recorded sound will play automatically, but you can also press the speaker if you want to listen to it again. Fonemo Plus+ is easy to learn. The child does not have to be literate since the game is based on images. The cards contain words with the current speech sound in the beginning, the middle or in the end. You can also practice the speech sound adjacent to a vowel, a consonant or mulitple consonants. Do you want to see something funny? Poke the teddy in the belly before you turn the first card! How to play Fonemo Plus+ Turn a card by poking it. Turn a second card. If the two cards look the same, it's a pair. And you have won it! If you play as a single player, pair all cards on the board. If you are two players keep pairing cards until there is a mismatch. Then the turn goes to the other player. A green light will help you keep track on whoβs turn it is. When you have matched two cards and got a pair, it is the same players turn again, the green light will then flash to remind you.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Sesla at Free against Fonemo Plus+'s $14.99. Sesla also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 months) and device support (3 vs 1). Fonemo Plus+'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On ads there is nothing between them.
