See the real app

These are the app's own Google Play screenshots — the real study, quiz and parent screens, not a mockup.

  1. A study card showing a photo of a pigeon, with the word PIGEON and an audio button beside it.

    Hear a word

    Your child taps to hear the word spoken clearly.

  2. The Parent Settings screen: learning languages with English and Spanish switched on, English selected for play, and the visible packs listed.

    Choose the languages

    You keep 1, 2, or 3 learning languages active together. One runs the current game; your child can hear the same word in the others.

  3. The quiz screen asking 'Where is the HIPPO?' with four animal photos to choose from.

    Match the picture

    Four pictures, one match, calm unhurried feedback.

How it works

You choose which languages are switched on. Your child does the rest.

  1. Listen

    Your child hears a word spoken aloud.

  2. Choose

    They pick the matching picture from four choices.

  3. Repeat

    The pace stays calm — no timers, no pressure.

Why it stays calm

  • Calm and low-distraction

    No clutter and no flashing rewards. An optional setting turns off achievements and the extra controls, leaving just the cards.

  • Language fit

    Keep 1, 2, or 3 learning languages active together. One is used for the current game, and your child can hear the same word in the other active languages.

  • No ads or accounts

    Nothing to sign up for and nothing interrupting your child.

  • Works offline

    Once installed, no connection is needed to play.
