About this app

PhonoTrain was developed by a speech therapist. The app helps children from kindergarten to school age to playfully practice important fundamentals of auditory perception, which are crucial for speech, pronunciation, and later literacy acquisition. The app is suitable for speech therapy in clinics as well as for independent practice at home. Ideally, homework should be done in consultation with the respective therapist to ensure a professionally sound selection of exercises.

The following games are included:

Rhyme Recognition & Rhyme Memory
Find suitable rhyming words and strengthen language awareness.

Syllable Counting & Sorting
Divide words into their syllables and promote phonological awareness.

Sound & Syllable Differentiation
