Features & Capabilities

Snap a real picture book and LoroBuddy turns it into story time: Loro, a friendly little parrot, reads it aloud page by page and listens while your child reads back. The same buddy takes dictation night off your hands too — snap this week's word list and Loro reads it for practice. Put the book (or the worksheet) in their hands and keep yours free.

TURN ANY BOOK INTO A READ-ALONG Snap the pages of a real picture book or reader and LoroBuddy turns them into a guided read-along. In Story mode, Loro reads each line aloud in order and highlights every word as it's spoken — karaoke-style — so your child follows along and hears how the story should sound. • Photograph any printed book, page by page • Loro reads aloud with word-by-word highlighting • Made for pre-readers and early readers

YOUR CHILD READS TO LORO Switch to Practise mode and Loro becomes a patient reading buddy: it says a line, then listens as your child reads it back — and rewards clear reading with stars. A gentle way to build reading confidence and fluency at home. • Loro listens as your child reads aloud • Encouraging star feedback, judged on how it sounds • Age-aware — easier on little ones, honest with older kids

SNAP THIS WEEK'S WORD LIST LoroBuddy is a dictation helper too. Take a photo of any dictation or spelling list — a printed sheet, a textbook page, even handwriting — and LoroBuddy reads the text on-device and splits it into kid-sized chunks automatically. "Check the Words" lets you fix anything before practice begins. • On-device text recognition — no typing • Auto-splits into words or short sentences • Tap to edit any word before you start

LORO READS IT ALOUD Loro speaks each word with a clear, natural voice and waits for your child to read or write. Tap "Again" to repeat as many times as they need. • Adjustable reading speed • Repeat any word or line with one tap • Big, one-handed controls — built for holding the book or worksheet

MESSAGES IN YOUR OWN VOICE Leave a little message for your child — a voice note, a photo, a word of encouragement — so practice feels like it comes from you, not from a machine. • Record in your own voice • Add a photo or a short note • Saved on the device

MANY LANGUAGES Loro reads books aloud in 30+ languages. Dictation covers 7 — English, Cantonese, Mandarin (Traditional & Simplified Chinese), French, German, Spanish and Russian — so the same buddy grows with your child.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN — MADE FOR KIDS LoroBuddy is built for children and the parents beside them. • Scanning and read-aloud run on-device — photos, book pages and word lists stay on your phone • No accounts, no sign-up • A parental gate keeps grown-up settings for grown-ups • Optional reading-practice scoring sends only the words your child speaks — and only when you switch it on

MEET LORO Your child picks Loro's colour — six to choose from, including pink — and Loro plays along through every round of practice.

FREQUENTLY ASKED What does it do? Snap a real book and Loro reads it aloud — or listens while your child reads. It also takes dictation: snap a word list and Loro reads it for practice. Does my child need to read already? No — in Story mode Loro reads aloud and highlights each word; your child listens and follows along. Does it work offline? Reading books and word lists aloud runs on-device. Reading-practice scoring uses a secure connection. Can I use my own voice? Yes — leave voice messages your child can play back anytime. Is it safe for kids? Yes — on-device scanning, no accounts, no sign-up.

Story time and dictation night, sorted. Download LoroBuddy and let Loro read tonight's book — and this week's words — aloud.
