Primary Phonics: Learn to Read

Primary Phonics makes learning to read an adventure your child won't want to put down.

Children in P1 through P7 build real reading confidence through play — no worksheets, no boring drills. Just clever games backed by proven learning science.

SWIPE TO LEARN
Our swipeable flashcard game uses spaced repetition — the same technique used by memory champions — to make letter sounds, sight words and tricky words stick. Cards your child finds difficult come back more often. Cards they've mastered fade away. It's smart learning that adapts to every child.

AI STORY GENERATOR
Powered by Apple Intelligence, our story generator creates unique, personalised stories using the very words your child is learning. Every story is different. Every story is theirs.

VISUAL WORD GAMES
Bring words to life with Image Playgrounds. Children match sounds to vibrant images, build words from pictures, and see language come alive in a way textbooks never could.

RHYME TIME
Catchy rhyme games help children hear patterns in language — a foundational phonics skill. Match rhyming pairs, complete rhyme chains, and play beat-the-clock challenges.

EARN BADGES & REWARDS
Every milestone unlocks a new badge. Children stay motivated as they collect rewards for mastering letter sounds, completing stories, and conquering word games.

WHY SPACED REPETITION WORKS
Most apps show content once and move on. Primary Phonics remembers what your child knows and what they don't. Difficult sounds and words are revisited at scientifically optimal intervals, building long-term memory — not just short-term recall.
