Comments on The Phonics App for Android

★★★★☆ Noreen Sajid · Jun 17, 2026
Great app overall, but I have one concern with the short 'o' sound in the free section. It pronounces 'o' as in 'no' (long vowel) instead of as in 'octopus' (short vowel), which is what young children need to learn first. This could confuse kids who are just starting to read. Please correct the short 'o' pronunciation. Otherwise, a very useful app!
★★★★★ ASShumi Akter0092 · Jul 17, 2026
This is a great app and very useful for phonics practice. My concern is that sounds are generated by a synthetic voice,
★★★★★ Rhyll Labora (Rhyll) · May 1, 2026
This app is very useful, and I’m really glad I found your page. It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for to start teaching my 18-month-old about phonics. I just have one question - why did you use a cursive style for the letter “k”? It looks different, especially since children who are just starting to read are usually taught using manuscript or print letters.

Sounds are not pure, some have the schwa. Not recommended for teaching early reading.

Description by Phonics Folk Ltd Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
We made The Phonics App for absolutely anyone who want to read using phonics.

You can learn the a-z sounds and how to blend two letter words completely free - but we hope you will subscribe to learn all the other sounds in the English language and practise with over 400 words.

* Learn how to pronounce all of the sounds of English (with an English accent).
* ⁠⁠Watch as your phonics teacher guides you through the steps.
* Practise blending the sounds into words (with hundreds of decodable examples).
* ⁠Build up your knowledge of phonics, one sound at a time.
* ⁠Learn how to read and understand common irregular (tricky) wirds.
* ⁠Informal checks at the end of each section to reinforce your learning.
* No-nonsense format designed for adults, parents, teachers and children to navigate.
* ⁠Learn both lower case and capital letters.
* By the time you finish the all you’ll have the skills to decode nearly every word.

Why did we make this app?

Jonny is a father of two and started making this app to teach his kids to read. It worked really well So he showed it to Claire (a teacher of phonics teachers and phonics influencer) to see if it would be useful to other people. She said yes, and had a lot of ideas how to make it better! So they spent AGES making 'The Phonics App' - and now it's finally done!

We hope it helps you learn to read too!

Claire + Jonny
