Tikiri Support

Hello, and thank you for using Tikiri! Tikiri is a gentle little app that helps young children take their first steps into Sinhala, one playful flashcard at a time. If something isn't working or you have a question, we're happy to help.

The quickest way to reach us is by email at tikiri.support@anetfilms.com. We read every message and aim to reply within a couple of days.

Below are answers to a few common questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Tikiri is a free flashcard app that introduces Sinhala words to young children through pictures, sounds, and simple, easy-to-say spellings. It's made for little ones just starting out, with a "Big kid" mode that adds more words and decks as they grow.

  • No. Tikiri is completely free, with every deck included. There's an optional tip jar for grown-ups who'd like to support the app, but it's never required and unlocks nothing. It's just a kind way to say thanks.

  • No. Once installed, Tikiri works fully offline, including all the audio, so it's perfect for car rides, flights, and anywhere else. The only things that need a connection are leaving an optional tip and tapping external links.

  • No. Tikiri does not collect, store, or share any personal information, and there are no ads or trackers. Everything stays on your device.

  • Tikiri starts with the Numbers deck, and more decks open up as your child finishes the ones before them. Once they're unlocked, you can switch any deck on or off anytime by tapping the gear icon to open Settings. We suggest keeping just a handful on at a time to keep the home screen simple for little learners.

  • Tap the gear icon to open Settings, then choose "Little kid" or "Big kid" at the top. You can tap either option or slide between them, and you can change it whenever you like.

  • Open Settings (the gear icon) and make sure Sound is turned on and the volume is up. Tikiri is designed to play even when your device is on silent, so children can always hear the words.

  • Finishing a deck is a little milestone! Completing the first decks unlocks new ones, and Tikiri will gently let you know when there are more decks to explore in Settings.

Did I get a word or a fact wrong? Let me know. Tikiri is made with great care, but languages are rich and full of nuance, and nobody is perfect. If you spot a word, spelling, pronunciation, or fun fact that doesn't look quite right, please email tikiri.support@anetfilms.com and tell us. We truly appreciate it, and getting these details right for your little ones matters a lot to us.
