A session works one word at a time: your child hears a clear example of the word, says it, and listens to their own try played back beside the example. The app listens to what was actually said — feedback and practice tips respond to the attempt, not just to whether something was spoken. Sessions follow your child’s practice plan, built from their assessment or set by your SLP.

About five minutes. Short and daily beats long and occasional for speech practice — young children do better with a small number of focused attempts than a marathon — so sessions are deliberately sized to fit after breakfast or before bed, and the streak rewards showing up, not grinding.

Any of the common trouble sounds — S, R, L, TH, CH, SH and more — each with word lists by position in the word. Feedback stays honest by design: instant feedback on the R sound, and listen-and-compare on every word. Where there is no AI verdict, that is deliberate — hearing the difference is part of the practice, and you can ask for a human review.

Yes — a free account, which takes about a minute: we email you a sign-in code, no password. A parent or guardian holds the account for a child or teen; adults (18 or older) can practise their own speech on their own account. A voice is only ever analysed for someone who is signed in. The free plan includes one sound a day without payment details; the account also keeps the practice plan, streaks and saved progress, and lets you share practice with your SLP.
