What a day looks like

Twelve questions, about ten minutes, and the whole shape of the day is on the first screen so the end is always in sight. Words first, then two easy ones, then the day's new skill, then something from a while back.

The questions are about real things: shelf labels, change from a note, a bank statement, whether a bill is bigger than last month.

What you will not find

Getting one wrong is quiet — no buzzer, no red flash. I’m not sure is a button on every question and is never counted against anyone.

The grown-up page

At the bottom of the first screen. It is a minute a week and shows two numbers side by side: how much is coming out right now, and how much is still there weeks later. They are never averaged, because the gap between them is the thing worth knowing.

Your child's privacy

Nothing leaves the phone. There is no account, no sign-in and no adverts, and a full day works with the phone in aeroplane mode — worth trying once, because it is the sort of claim that should be checked rather than believed.

Everything can be exported or deleted from inside the app, and uninstalling takes it all with it. The full policy is short.

What is useful to tell me

A sentence is plenty. “Question about the bus fare made no sense” is more useful than a long report.

Before you hand the phone over

The guide walks through every screen with a picture of each: what a day is made of, what the three buttons on a question do, what the settings change, and what the grown-up page is telling you.
