How to Set Up Sound Safari

When you first open Sound Safari, you'll pick whether you're a therapist or a parent — this customizes the whole app. A short setup guide follows.

Adding your first student:

1. Tap the Students tab

2. Tap + Add Student

3. Enter their name, pick a fun safari avatar, and optionally add their age

4. Tap Save

Running your first practice session:

1. From the student's profile, tap a speech sound to target (like /s/ or /r/)

2. Choose a word position (initial, medial, or final)

3. Select a practice activity — options include flashcards, matching games, spinner wheels, and more

4. Tap Start Practice

5. Score each response as correct, incorrect, or approximation

That's it — you're ready to go! Your student's progress is saved automatically.
