Help us shape
a gentler way to learn.
Visual Learner is in a small, invitation-only TestFlight beta. We’re listening to feedback on the reading experience, translations and pronunciation before a wider release.
Invitations depend on availability and Apple’s beta approval.
Already invited?
Install Apple’s TestFlight app, open your invitation email on your iPhone or iPad, and follow the steps to install Visual Learner when the build is available.
Help getting startedA few things to know.
Which languages can I learn?
The current story and its picture vocabulary are available in English, Polish and French. Choose any two different languages for reading and translation. The app’s navigation is currently in English.
Does it work offline?
Yes. The story, pictures, translations and saved words work offline. Listening uses Apple’s speech voices installed on your device; downloading extra voices requires a connection. Visiting support pages also needs internet access.
Is it available on the App Store?
Not yet. The iPhone and iPad app is currently in a private TestFlight beta. Email support@splitlight.co.uk with questions about testing.
Who is the story for?
It’s a gentle, short story for people beginning a language or enjoying reading together. Children can read with an adult; adults should manage beta invitations and contact us on their behalf.
How much content is included?
The first beta includes one complete twelve-page story, Ember’s Big Heart, and nine illustrated vocabulary entries across three languages. There are no subscriptions or in-app purchases in this beta.
How do I send feedback?
Use TestFlight’s feedback tools or email support@splitlight.co.uk. Tell us the page, language pair and what happened. A screenshot helps, but please remove private information first.
