Four subjects. So many questions.

Make room for why.

What makes a seed grow? Where do shadows come from? Science joins math, spelling and language arts, with activities selected for your child’s learning level.

A little practice. A little personality.

Make learning their own.

Practice earns pearls. Pearls become a wizard hat, a new accessory or a cozy touch for Otter Cove. Children can dress their otter and decorate a den while building a learning routine.

  • Choose from 27 otter accessories and a collection of furnishings.
  • Try daily quests and the 60-second Lightning Lagoon challenge.
  • Play Otter Duel together, each at your own learning level.

No ads, no tracking and no OtterLearn login. Learning progress is stored on your devices and in your own iCloud when syncing is enabled.

A few things you might wonder.

Which ages and grades is OtterLearn for?

There are five learning levels: Pre-K, Kindergarten, Grades 1–2, Grades 3–4 and Grades 5–6. A grown-up chooses the level, and the library shows activities suited to it. Finger tracing is reserved for Pre-K and Kindergarten.

Are there 2,650 games at every level?

2,650 is the total catalog, not the number at a single level. Each learning level offers more than 300 games in each of the four subjects. Some games support multiple levels with different content or difficulty.

Do we need to create an account?

No. A child profile is simply a name, a learning level and an otter — not an online account or login. The free version includes one child profile; Premium supports additional profiles.

Can children learn offline?

Yes. Learning content is built into the app. An internet connection is needed for App Store purchases and purchase restoration, and for iCloud synchronization.

Where can we play?

OtterLearn is available on iPhone and iPad (iOS/iPadOS), and on Mac (macOS). It is not currently offered for Windows or Android.

Subscription terms

Auto-renewal. Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple ID account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period at the cost of the chosen package ($4.99 / month · $29.99 / year).

Managing your subscription. You can manage your subscription and turn off auto-renewal at any time in iOS Settings → [Your name] → Subscriptions. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period — you keep Premium until then.

Payment. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. OtterLearn never sees your payment method, card number, or billing address. Refund requests go through Apple's standard process at reportaproblem.apple.com.

Subscription group. Monthly and yearly subscriptions share the same App Store subscription group — you can switch freely between them. The lifetime tier is a one-time, non-consumable in-app purchase: no renewal, no recurring charge, and it survives cancellation of any subscription.

Restore purchases. Use Restore Purchases in the Parent Area or on the Premium purchase screen, with the Apple Account used for your purchase. OtterLearn does not require its own account or login.

By subscribing or purchasing the lifetime license, you agree to the OtterLearn Privacy Policy and the OtterLearn Terms of Service. Subscriptions are managed by Apple under the Apple standard EULA.
