Poio consists of several mini-games (gathering letters/words, matching sounds with text, and assembling words) stiched together to keep children's interest as they practice reading skills and unlock a story. It is a well designed game and accomplishes it's goal. Where it differentiates itself from similar games, however, is it's awful pricing model. Despite being an offline game, it requires an expensive subscription to play, ending up 10x more expensive. While good, it's not worth the cost.

Good learning program, I don't mind paying for the subscription to support well-developed apps. One star because the program keeps switching to other languages mid-stream. If I quit the app, goes back to English. However, when I come back after 10 min or so, I'll see my child working on the app in a different language. As far as I can tell, the user cannot change the language after initial set-up. Also, my child got to the end of chapter 1 but could not advance. I looked through the app, various screens, etc, and could not see any way to advance. When I clicked on any of the characters, the app just said, "Ebba wants to rest", etc.

Hi, please contact us at contact@poio.com for assistance. You can click on the cog on the map screen to see if you have another profile in a different language. And it's possible that your child has not put all of the words from chapter 1 into the book - please check for words in the water on the map screen, and also click on the chapter 2 lock.

Love it for my children, I homeschool. my daughter has issues with reading, we've done hooked in phonics and while it helps she still had a hard time reading/remembering. I've tried all kinds of different reading apps, plus when they were in public school first grade. She still struggled. Since getting kahoot kids my daughter has improved DRASTICALLY and is doing much better, not just in reading but in math, specifically multiplication. Only issue is no more levels, she's done with the book.
