APP FAQ

I paid for this but now it doesn't work! How do I restore my purchases on my iPhone or iPad?
If you have already made a purchase on a different device or you have reinstalled the app, you can restore your purchases using the same iTunes account that you originally used to make your purchase. Tap on any Unit other than Unit 1 and you will see the Purchases Screen. Tap the "Restore Purchases" button and follow the instructions.

I've bought all the units but the app won't let me play the unit I want to! Why not?
In Standard Mode (the default mode) you must complete the units of a level in order. You will get an alert message if you try to do Unit 3 before finishing Unit 2. This is because Oxford Phonics World has been designed so that each game and unit builds on the one before it. However, if you want to play the units/games in any order, you can change to Free Access Mode. To do this, tap the Grown-Ups tab and then select Unit Access and Free Access Mode.

I can't hear the audio! Why not?
Check that the Mute function at the bottom left of the Main Menu screen has not been activated. If the problem continues, make sure the audio is not muted on your device itself. You can also try restarting the app and restarting the device.

How do I start / play the games?
To start a game, tap on the character to the left of the screen. If you're still not sure what to do, then tap Super Seal in the top right and he will give you instructions.

What are Extras?
Extras are additional games that are available for each unit once the unit has been completed. These games include Picture Maker, Unlimited Letter Trace, and Animation Gallery. You can access them via the Extras button on the Main Menu.

What are the Stars?
After you complete a unit in Standard Mode, you get a Gold, Silver, or Bronze Star. If you are not happy with the Star you got, you can try to improve your score. To do this, click on the unit on the Main Menu and choose Test.

What are the Trophies?
Once you have finished all 9 units of a level, you will get a Trophy Certificate. You can send your Trophy Certificate to your family and friends by email.

Can I play this app with my child?
Yes! This is a great app to play with your child. You can take turns guessing words and letters, as well as solving puzzles, and you can add your own explanations as you play.

How do I reset the app so I can play everything again?
The best way is to delete the app and download it again (for free) from the store.

What operating systems versions do I need for Android and iOS?
For Android you need KitKat 4.4 or above; for iOS you need iOS 10.0 or above.
