Bukvyk: read Ukrainian
Alphabet, syllables and tales
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
BUKVYK teaches children to read Ukrainian — from a single letter to a whole story.
A child starts with sounds and syllables and ends up reading a bedtime tale alone. Thirteen games, each one step along that road.
GAMES
• Alphabet and syllables — letters and syllables in order, with voice
• Find the pairs — a memory game
• How many syllables — count the syllables in a word
• Shared syllable — one syllable, three words
• First letter — which letter does the word start with
• Find the picture — read the word, pick the picture
• Build the word — assemble a word from syllables or letters
• Sort it out — read the word and drop it into the right jar; tilt the phone and the words roll
• True or false — does the sentence describe the picture
• Which word — put in the missing word
• Finish the rhyme — a word that both rhymes and makes sense
• Short stories — read a story told with pictures
• Odd one out — three from one pile, one from another
BEDTIME TALES
Seventy tales written for this app. Each is about a character who tries three ways and finds a fourth: a tortoise in a hurry, a dragon with no fire, a whale who wanted to reach the sky. Turned page by page, like a book, with questions after the last one.
Six tales are open from the start.
VOICE
Every word, syllable, sound and letter name is recorded — seven hundred takes. A child touches a picture and hears the word; touches a letter and hears its sound, not its name. The voice is synthesized, but never on the fly: each take was made and chosen in advance, so a word sounds the same on every screen and with no connection at all.
FOR PARENTS
A separate screen shows what is actually hard: which letters the child mixes up, which words they stumble on, how much they read today. Difficulty in each game follows the child on its own — there is nothing to set up, and you can still look and adjust it on that same screen.
Fifty-seven stickers for milestones. They are holographic: tilt the phone and the shimmer follows your hand.
WHAT IS NOT HERE
• Advertising — none, anywhere
• Accounts and sign-up
• Data collection — nothing about you leaves the phone
• Hearts, penalties and anything else that rushes a child
The games work without a network. It is needed twice, and only when you decide: when the store processes a purchase, and when you tap to download the pack of animated covers and narrated tales. The pack is fetched as a plain request by file name.
FULL VERSION
One purchase, forever. No subscriptions: the content is finished, and charging every month for the same thing is not honest. The purchase sits behind a parental gate.
Making mistakes while learning to read is normal, so there is no red anywhere in the app.
