Meet your mentor

Every Spark & Anvil app has a friendly mentor character that demonstrates, praises, and patiently scaffolds learning. On-device AI personalizes the mentor's responses to your kid's progress — never connecting to a server, never collecting data.

WaveForge is an acoustics and sound physics laboratory where you can see sound! Use the built-in oscilloscope to visualize your voice as a living waveform, tune vibrating strings to find resonance, design the acoustics of a concert hall, and decode whale songs using spectrograms.

What's inside

Oscilloscope Lab

Tap the microphone button and make a sound. Your voice appears as a live waveform on the oscilloscope screen. Adjust the frequency and amplitude sliders to see

Resonance & Standing Waves

Experiment with a virtual vibrating string. Adjust the tension, length, and density to find the fundamental frequency and its harmonics. Watch nodes and antinod

Doppler Effect

Watch what happens to sound waves when a source is moving. See the compression (higher pitch) as the source approaches and the expansion (lower pitch) as it mov

Concert Hall Designer

Design the perfect concert hall by choosing wall materials (wood, carpet, foam, glass) and placing speakers and listeners. Watch sound rays bounce off walls and
