Sound Memo - Pairs & Tones
Listen, match, learn words
Free · In‑App Purchases
Match pairs by ear instead of by eye. Hear a word, find the card that says the same — and pick up German, English, French or Spanish while you play.
Sound Memo is a fresh twist on the classic pairs game — instead of matching pictures, you match pairs by listening to spoken words.
How it works:
Tap a card to hear a word spoken aloud. Then find the card that says the same. Clear the board to finish the game and earn up to 3 stars.
3 game modes:
• Speech only — the classic Sound Memo experience. Listen carefully and rely on your ears alone.
• Image only — cards reveal a picture when flipped. A visual memory challenge.
• Speech + Image — hear the word and see the picture. Great for learning vocabulary.
Choose your board:
Play with 6, 8 or 12 pairs. A small board suits younger children and a quick round; the full 4×6 board is the real test.
4 languages, 48 card sets:
Play in English, German, French or Spanish. Each language brings 12 card sets across different categories, spoken by a native voice. Choose between official and everyday pronunciation, and between a male and a female voice.
Learning mode:
Turn on a second language and every pair combines the two — the German card and the English one, the picture and the word. Vocabulary practice that feels like a game, because it is one.
A new board every day:
The daily challenge deals the same board to everyone playing that language that day. Finish it to keep your streak going.
Practice what you keep missing:
Sound Memo quietly notices which words you get wrong and builds a practice deck from them, hardest first. The words you already know stay out of your way.
Play together:
Pass one device back and forth in two-player mode. A match keeps your turn, a miss hands it over.
Track your progress:
Games played, average moves, accuracy, star ratings and per-set leaderboards. Game Center adds worldwide leaderboards and achievements.
More card sets:
Beyond the 48 sets included, further categories can be downloaded when you want them.
Make it yours:
• 8 colour themes
• Light, dark or system appearance
• Adjustable card display time
Sound Memo is made for children learning to listen, for language learners of any age, and for anyone who likes a matching game that sounds like something.
No advertising. No tracking. Purchases and unlocked sets follow you across your devices through iCloud; statistics stay on the device they were played on.
