For a child with learning disorders

A routine app for a child with dyslexia or dyspraxia

Evotonomia replaces the written instruction with a series of images. The child follows the sequence without reading, and the schedule is displayed on screen or printed. It helps with dyslexia, when decoding eats the energy meant for the task, and with dyspraxia, when it is the chain of movements that comes apart.

Evotonomia is an everyday organisation tool. It is not a medical device and it replaces no form of support.

For a child with learning disorders

What actually gets stuck

Four situations where writing becomes an obstacle before the task has even started.

Reading the instruction exhausts before starting

When decoding takes effort, it consumes the energy meant for the task. The child has understood what is expected, they simply arrive tired at the moment of doing it.

The order of movements slips

Getting dressed, laying the table or packing a bag are chains of actions. With a coordination disorder it is the sequence itself that comes apart, not the willingness to do well.

Copying out the schedule is a task in itself

A planner to copy adds a handwriting difficulty on top of the organising. The support ends up incomplete, unreadable, and stops doing its job.

Dual tasking costs double

Following a written instruction while acting means running two things at once. An image removes one of them, which frees room for the other.

What the app does

The pictogram takes the place of the sentence, and the sequence stays visible from start to finish.

The image instead of the sentence

Each step carries a pictogram chosen from a library of over 300 images, sorted by category and marked by colour. The text stays visible for the adult, but the child does not need to read it to move on.

Seeing what is already done

The progress gauge and achievements show ground covered rather than what is missing. For a child who collects negative feedback about writing, flipping the emphasis matters as much as the tool itself.

A schedule to put up, never to copy out

The week is built once in the app, then exported to PDF. The child writes nothing, they tick. The same document can travel to school or to a professional.

Questions we get asked

01.Can the step text be hidden?

The label stays under the pictogram, because it serves the adult and supports the child's entry into written language. Nothing forces the child to read it: the image alone identifies the step, and that is how most children use it.

02.My child is dyspraxic, is the interface accessible?

Touch targets are large and validating a step is a single tap, with no dragging and no precise aiming. The app works just as well on a tablet, which makes the areas larger still.

03.Can we use only the paper version?

Yes. All four routine packs can be downloaded without installing the app and without creating an account. Many families start on paper, then move to the screen once the routine is established.

04.Can the schedule be shared with the school?

Yes, that is what the PDF export is for. The teacher receives a printable sheet, with nothing to install and no account to create.

05.Is the app bilingual?

Yes, French and English, including the pictogram labels. The language can be switched at any time from the home screen without losing data.

06.Is an internet connection needed?

No. Beyond the initial download, everything runs locally, including in flight mode. No data leaves the device, and there is no account, no advertising and no tracker.
