How does Fonetti work?

Fonetti works through voice recognition developed for reading in partnership with the University of Edinburgh.

Instant, Constructive Feedback

Children will read aloud the words in a book from the in-app library.

When they read the words correctly, they will turn green. If the child skips or misreads a word, the word will turn grey. When a word turns grey, they can double tap the word and Fonetti will read the word to them.

Friendly reporting to encourage and motivate

When the child completes a book, they are congratulated and given a percentage score for accuracy, which they can compare with their previous accuracy scores and reading duration for the other books they’ve read, encouraging them to want to improve and read more.

Here’s a word from our India Read Aloud Challenge Ambassdor

“Fonetti is a brilliant and interactive technology that helps children improve and sharpen their fluency in English

  • “The voice recognition is an excellent way to prompt children's ability to read aloud; the words changing colour provides instant feedback for the children which in turn creates intrinsic satisfaction and motivation. As staff, we can easily track children's accuracy and amount of time reading - providing us with useful and informative data. Already we have seen a positive impact on children's reading abilities.”

  • "I think digital education is fundamental to primary school age children. My son Giovanni is six years old, and struggled with phonics and reading during reception and year one. When he used the Fonetti app, I noticed immediately how much more confident, and in control he was about sounding out the words. As a parent you always want to support your child the best way you can. So having an app that helps correct the struggle of reading is absolutely awesome, and these are the moments you never forget. Thank you Fonetti for adding value to our reading time."

  • “Nurturing a love of reading, that remains with children throughout their lifetime, is invaluable and Fonetti is such a brilliant way of aiding with this and at the same time developing their reading skills. Fonetti has been really well received by teachers, children and parents and especially during these difficult times of school closure, it has added a new and exciting element to their home learning experience”

    Simon Davies
    Headteacher, Balfour Junior School

  • “Because Fonetti listens to me I feel more brave because I have got someone to listen to me . Its like it is asking you questions but not really , its like you are with someone and its helping you practice. When words turn green I think it helps because I think then that I can practice other words instead of those words that I got green because I am good at those words.”

  • "Once I got like zero stars at the end of the book , but now I am building upon and now I get like 2 or 3 stars . When I like see the stars I got I am so excited and I might go and try the next level of books."

    Sydney B
    Age 9

  • "Fonetti made me feel Joyful, I liked how the word lighting moved as I read, it made me want to read more (just like a game). The best thing about Fonetti is it shows me how well I am reading!"
