What is the First Steps tour?

Short answer

A welcome card and six short steps that walk you through the app while your first words are being prepared in the background. Tap Show me around, then move at your own pace with Next and Back. The last card has a two-minute video recap.

The quickest way to get the lay of the land: after a welcome card, six short steps walk you through the app while your first words are being prepared in the background.

The last card holds a two-minute video that goes through all of it again, for whenever you want a recap. Start on Home closes the tour.

Once the tour is finished, Home switches to your daily view: a session to jump straight into and a note from your tutor.
