Learn Words: Bumle Bear
Kids 2-8 hear your own voice
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Brand-new drawings on every picture card. Record your own voice, and your child hears Mom, Dad or Grandma instead of a robot. No ads, no subscription.
An app for children aged 1 to 8. Words, pictures and sound. Parents, grandparents and speech therapists record their own voice, and the child hears people they love.
YOUR OWN VOICE
Record the words yourself, in your own accent. Bumle plays your recording instead of a synthetic voice. Several people in the family can add their own voice to the same cards, and you choose whether the child hears one fixed voice, a new one each day, or a mix.
All recordings can be gathered into one file and passed on with AirDrop or iMessage. A grandmother records the words in her own dialect, and her grandchild hears her every evening.
SEVEN WAYS TO PLAY
Listen and find: the child hears a word and finds the picture.
See and say: the child sees a picture and picks the right word.
Find pairs: a memory game with pictures and words.
Find in the picture: look for things hidden in a scene.
Count: how many do you see?
Explore: browse the cards freely, with nothing to get wrong.
Teach Bumle: Bumle guesses, the child corrects.
CONTENT
22 themes and over 450 cards. Animals, colors and shapes, food and drinks, fairy tales, dinosaurs, clothes, toys, vehicles, nature, in the park, underwater, feelings, fruits and vegetables, the body, numbers and counting, in town, professions, musical instruments, weather, sports and activities, home, and letters. You can also build your own categories with your own pictures and your own sound.
SAFE
No ads, no tracking, no third-party code, and nothing is sent to us. Recordings are encrypted and stored on your device, and your own pictures are stored there too. iCloud sync is off until you turn it on. Then profiles and progress, including the child’s profile picture, sync through your own iCloud, but recordings and your own card pictures do not. Everything meant for grown-ups sits behind a math question a small child can’t solve.
FREE AND BUMLE+
Free: two themes with 50 cards and three ways to play.
Bumle+ unlocks all 22 themes, all seven ways to play, unlimited recordings, bear accessories, your own categories and detailed progress. A one-time purchase. No subscription.
Nine languages: English, Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, Finnish, German, French, Spanish and Dutch.
Ratings & Reviews
Every picture card has new artwork in one consistent style. It’s sharp on every screen, and the app takes up less space. Pictures and categories you made yourself stay just as they were.
“Random mix” never includes the same word twice.
Count shows the pictures in your custom categories, and Voice room shows your family’s own pictures.
The results screen now fits on smaller iPhones too.
“Listen and find” and “See and say” now show the right layout when your child moves up to a harder level. “Practice these” shows the right result, and Progress shows the words your child actually needs to practice.
Small fixes.
