Students and teachers after a Pintar session
Free reading app

First letters. First words. First stories — in their own language.

Pintar helps children go from zero to simple stories with audio, pictures, and short daily lessons.

What Pintar is

A complete reading path inside one phone.

For a parent, teacher, or volunteer, Pintar is simple: open the app, choose a language, follow the course. The child listens, taps, builds words, and reads short stories.

Daily habit

Ten minutes is enough to start.

Lessons are short enough for a real school day or a shared phone at home.

Guided course

No lesson planning required.

The path is already sequenced from letters to words to stories.

Shared devices

Built for one Android phone.

Designed for classrooms and homes where a laptop is not realistic.

Access

Free for learners.

No paywall on a child's first letters, words, or stories.

How a lesson works

A lesson is more than tapping cards.

01

Build a sentence from a scene

Children look, listen, and assemble words in the right order.

02

Practice what was missed

Hard sounds and words return as review instead of disappearing.

03

Read along

Story text highlights as it is read, so the child follows the sentence.

Why it matters

The problem is not the child. It is the missing tool.

Many children speak one language at home, but meet reading through another language first. Pintar starts with the language they already understand, then builds the bridge to letters and stories.

At home

The language is alive.

Children already know the words. They need a path to read them.

At school

Teachers need support.

Audio, review, and progress tracking reduce the repeated manual work.

Why their own language first

Reading is easier when the words already mean something.

A child does not have to learn a new language and a new script at the same time. Pintar starts with familiar words, then connects them to sounds, letters, and stories.

Context: World Bank & UNESCO estimate 70% learning poverty in low- and middle-income countries.

70%
of children in low- and middle-income countries cannot read a simple text by age 10
For parents and teachers

Less explaining. More practice. Clearer progress.

Follow the path

The child always knows the next step.

The course starts from letters and moves toward words and stories. No extra worksheet, whiteboard, or lesson plan is needed.

Mistakes become the next practice.

When a child keeps missing a sound or word, Pintar brings it back for review instead of moving on silently.
