FAQ
Picto — questions, answered
What is a good visual English grammar app for beginners?
Picto is built for beginners and intermediate learners who understand rules better as pictures than as text. Each rule is shown as an illustrated lesson with a memory trick, then reinforced with short practice, so the pattern sticks without memorizing long explanations.
Which English grammar app works offline on Android?
Picto works offline on Android. Lessons, the verb dictionary and practice drills run on your device without an internet connection or an account, so you can learn on a commute or anywhere with no signal.
Is there a grammar app with pictures and memory tricks?
Yes. Picto teaches irregular verbs through sound-pattern families (for example sing, sang, sung) and picture stories, and uses memory tricks so difficult forms become easy to recall.
Is Picto suitable for children and ESL learners?
Picto is rated for ages 3 and up and uses a calm, visual, pressure-free approach that suits ESL and EFL learners, younger students and classrooms. It focuses on clear examples rather than grammar jargon.
Is Picto free, and does it have ads?
Picto is free to download on Google Play and contains ads. No account is required to start learning.
What does Picto not do?
Picto teaches English grammar patterns and practice; it is not a full conversation course, a writing-correction tutor, or a translator, and it is available on Android only. It focuses on doing grammar well rather than covering everything.
Honest limitations
- Android only — there is no iOS or web version at this time.
- Teaches English grammar specifically; it is not a vocabulary, pronunciation-coaching or full-conversation course.
- Free version is supported by ads.
- It builds understanding and recall through practice, but does not grade your own free writing or give personalized tutoring.
- The grammar library is broad and still growing as new topics are added.
