“Dictation night used to mean me reading the list aloud ten times. Now Loro does it and my daughter just writes — I finally get to sit with her instead of drilling her.”
👩 Sara M. Mum of two, London -
“Finally a kids’ app I don’t have to police. Calm, gentle learning she can do alone — nothing creepy, and a tap to go ad-free.”
🧔 David K. Dad of a 5-year-old -
“We’re raising our son bilingual, and Loro reads his spelling words in both languages. He loves leaving us little voice notes to play back at bedtime.”
👩🦱 Lucía R. Mum, Barcelona -
“My daughter records little voice notes of herself reading her favourite page. I’ve saved every single one — they’re tiny time capsules.”
👩 Emma T. Mum of two, Leeds -
“As a teacher I’m fussy about apps. This one actually builds decoding — and my own two beg for ‘Loro time’ after dinner.”
👩🏫 Priya S. Primary teacher & mum -
“Dictation for twins used to be chaos. Now they each go at their own pace with Loro and I referee far less.”
🧑 Marco B. Dad of twins, Milan -
“My son ‘hated reading’. Snapping his comic so Loro reads along was the trick — he finishes whole books now.”
👩🦰 Chloe W. Mum of a reluctant reader -
“He records himself reading, plays it back, and hears how much better he’s got. That’s what finally made reading click for him.”
