Sounds 100: World Onomatopoeia is the only kids' app that lets you compare onomatopoeia — the words for sounds — in 10 languages side by side.
Features:
- 100 sounds (25 animals, 20 nature, 25 objects, 20 actions, 10 body)
- One-tap pronunciation in all 10 languages (iOS built-in voices)
- Play all 10 languages in sequence for instant cross-language listening
- Category-organized flashcards
- Quiz modes (onomatopoeia → guess the language / picture → match the text)
- Pronunciation guide for non-Latin scripts (shown only when you need it)
- Fully offline, no data collection
Does a dog say Woof? Wan-wan? 汪汪? 멍멍? The same sound is written and spoken differently in each language!
A Learning Report for parents shows your child's favourites, the kinds of things they are drawn to, and a record of the last two weeks. It stays on the device and is never sent anywhere.
One app, ten languages (Japanese, English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Arabic). Switch with one tap from the home screen — perfect for bilingual families, heritage language learners, and travel.
Premium unlocks the full collection and adds auto read-aloud, which turns the cards and speaks each name hands-free — handy in the car or at bedtime.
Ages 5 & Under. No data collected. No ads. No third-party SDKs. Parental Gate (multiplication challenge) protects external links.
