Due to the spread of new coronavirus infections, many children are forced to study at home. Google's newly released 'Read Along' is an application for smartphones that can improve the 'reading aloud' skill for children aged 5 and over who are studying at home.

Read Along uses Google's text-to-speech technology and voice recognition technology to detect if children are reading well when reading a story. It will determine your pronunciation and whether you are reading well, etc., and give you feedback and how to improve your skills. About 500 stories are included in Read Along, and each story also includes an interactive game that children can enjoy while learning. You can also check your progress in learning by creating a profile.



Google says 'Read Along is designed with child safety and privacy in mind', and there are no in-app advertisements or billing elements. Furthermore, after installation, it will work even in an offline environment. In addition, voice data is analyzed in real time and is not sent to the server.

The predecessor of 'Read Along' was a reading reading app called ' Bolo ' announced by Google India in 2019. When Google India conducted a trial operation of Bolo with 1500 children in Unnao district of Pradesh, India, 39% of Bolo users compared to the control group received the highest evaluation in the reading comprehension evaluation test conducted by the country Not only did 64% improve their results in the test, but 92% of parents reported that 'reading skills improved.'
