Chart Summary — Key Findings from User Responses


Across all age groups, children showed strong engagement with Pokoro’s conversational features, especially its Q&A-style learning effect.

Parents valued how Pokoro encouraged curiosity and independent questioning, but still desired clearer onboarding and more structured educational feedback.
When asked about future improvements, most respondents highlighted a need for expanded learning contexts such as Q&A for reading and textbook study and more open-ended conversation modes that feel like talking with a real companion.

Interestingly, “foreign-language conversation” and “playful storytelling” ranked high among older elementary users, suggesting that Pokoro could evolve beyond a learning toy into an adaptive educational friend supporting diverse learning goals.













App Overview


POKORO App extends the learning experience beyond the pen, acting as a control hub and personalized learning dashboard.
 Users can register Wi-Fi networks, sync their device automatically, and review full conversation histories in one place.

The app visualizes usage patterns, highlights frequently discussed topics, and evaluates pronunciation accuracy to guide continuous learning.
More than a companion app, it bridges physical and digital learning, offering effortless connectivity, actionable insights, and personalized feedback that help users build a deeper relationship with POKORO.


POKORO Character Branding






App UX


The Pokoro App was designed to complement the screen-free pen experience with a universal, inclusive interface.
 While the primary audience is children between the ages of five and ten, the visual language avoids overly childlike elements.
 This approach allows the app to grow with users who continue to use Pokoro as a language companion and personal learning partner.

The app focuses on three main features: Chat Log, Report, and Pronunciation Evaluation. The Chat Log lets users revisit every conversation they have had with Pokoro.
 The Report section visualizes daily and weekly conversation patterns, topics of interest, and engagement frequency, helping users reflect on their learning behavior.
 The Pronunciation feature, developed in collaboration with educational publishers, analyzes speech accuracy and offers feedback for improvement, transforming Pokoro into a personalized speaking coach.
In addition to its learning functions, the app also serves as a connectivity hub.
 It manages Wi-Fi registration, language preferences, and device pairing seamlessly
 . Users can store frequently used networks and easily switch between two preferred languages for natural and flexible interaction.

Ultimately, the Pokoro App was designed to feel like a friendly and intelligent learning companion that connects playful conversation with meaningful learning and continues to grow alongside its users.











Brand Guide

The POKORO App Brand Guideline defines a warm, clear, and accessible visual identity that supports both playful character elements and a clean digital interface. The logotype, color rules, and spacing standards ensure consistent recognition across all touchpoints.

Centered on the signature Primary Yellow (#FDD751), the color and typography systems provide strong readability and a friendly tone. Core UI components—buttons, text fields, tabs, and snackbars—follow a unified style that keeps the experience simple, stable, and intuitive.

Overall, this guideline builds a cohesive design system that reflects POKORO’s personality and maintains consistency across all digital and physical experiences.




Logotype

The logotype represents POKORO and is used across various brand touchpoints.
Its form must remain unchanged under all circumstances.





Clearspace & Scale

To maintain visual independence, a minimum clearspace is required.
Using the height of the letter “O” as X, ensure 0.5X of space on all sides.
The logo should never be displayed at a height less than 20px.



Color Usage

These are the approved background colors for the logo.
Depending on the background, the logo may be used in white for optimal visibility.





Do nots

Do not alter the logo's size ratio or overall structure.




Partnerships
