Yomi is a little cat who gets fed when kids read stories aloud. Speech recognition listens along, kids can tap any tricky word to hear it, and a simple wizard lets them make up their own stories to read back. Real stories come at three levels, so kids pick what feels right today. What's not in it: streaks, ads, accounts, or data collection. No one loses a 14-day streak at bedtime. Yomi won't teach your kid to read, it gives them a reason to practice. Ages 5–9, English & Finnish, iOS.
@aamirxv2 thank you! i hope he finds it as delightful as my kids <3

I've been thinking (and reading) a lot about the literacy crisis recently, so this is well-timed. I can't wait to check it out and introduce it to my nephews! Congrats on your launch 🎉
This is genuinely adorable haha. I can totally see kids getting weirdly invested in making sure the little cat gets fed every night. Such a fun way to make reading feel less like homework. Congrats on the launch! @elina_patjas

@ryanwrites thanks. yomi’s not fixing the literacy crisis, but kids who read a little tend to read more. hope the nephews take to him.
@elina_patjas I'd argue that encouraging young people to read—and making reading fun—is helping more than you realize :)
