Frequently asked questions

How do I unlock letter sound groups?

The app takes you through each letter sound one at a time. If you wish to unlock subsequent or all letter sound groups (e.g. for teaching purposes), then please read the information page in the app for details of the 'edit mode', accessible via an invisible button.

While this App works on Android phones that meet the minimum requirements, it is best viewed on Android tablets due to the bigger screen size.

Please note that this app is only available in English but can be set to either American or British English. The app does not contain the Jolly Phonics Actions.
