How to play

The same steps as the "How to play" tutorial in the app — with a practice word, "cat" in the language you're learning (here: Polish kot).

The app shows this tutorial right after you choose your languages and job. You can replay it any time: Settings → How to play. In the app, a pointer shows where to tap and everything is in your own language.

  1. The game screen with a cat picture, three empty answer slots and the letters o, t, k. The pointer is on k.

    Spell what you see

    Tap the letters to spell what you see. Start with k.

    Look at the picture and tap the scrambled letters at the bottom in the right order. Each letter you tap fills the next empty slot of your answer.

  2. Wrong letter? Send it back

    Wrong letter? Tap it in your answer to send it back to the letters below.

    The tutorial asks you to make a mistake on purpose. Then tap the wrong letter in your answer — it goes back down to the letters, ready to be used again.

    K is placed in the answer. The pointer is on the t tile with the tip: Now tap t. It goes in the wrong place on purpose. The answer shows K T. The pointer is on the wrong T in the answer.
  3. The pointer is on the round arrow button next to the answer, with the tip: Tap the arrow to clear the whole answer and start over.

    Start the word over

    Tap ↻ to clear the whole answer and start over.

    The round arrow next to your answer clears every letter at once, so you can try the word again from the start.

  4. Stuck? Use the hint

    Stuck? Tap the lightbulb to see the word in your language.

    The lightbulb on the picture shows the word in your own language. Tap anywhere to close it.

    The pointer is on the lightbulb in the corner of the picture. A bubble next to the lightbulb shows the hint: cat.
  5. Hear the word, open Settings

    Tap the speaker to hear the word.

    The speaker at the top right reads the word aloud in the language you're learning. You can choose the speed (and, with a subscription, the voice) in Settings.

    The gear at the top left opens Settings: your languages, your job, your daily reminder, audio, progress, subscription and help.

    The pointer is on the speaker button at the top right. The pointer is on the gear button at the top left, with the tip: The gear opens Settings: languages, job and your daily reminder.
  6. Spell the whole word

    Now spell the whole word. Start with k.

    When every slot is filled, the app checks your answer. Correct — the animals celebrate. Wrong — you see the right word. With a subscription, the words you got wrong come back in a review.

    You get 20 free words every day. Tap Let's go! to start playing with the words for your job.

    Empty answer slots. The pointer is on the k tile with the tip: Now spell the whole word. Start with k. The Correct! screen with celebrating animals, the note: You get 20 free words every day, and a Let's go! button.

Words you keep missing are collected for a review round, so you practise exactly what's hard for you. Review is part of the subscription.

Daily reminder

One reminder a day at the time you choose — only if you haven't played yet that day. Change it in Settings → Daily reminder.
