Photograph the lesson and the homework.
One page at a time. Binomino recognises the subject and the concept.
Your child is stuck on homework.
Not sure how to explain it?
Snap the exercise. Binomino gives you the steps and the exact words to say, the way their class does it.
You guide. They do.

01The lesson from their exercise book
02A sentence for you
03Something to work out for them
What you’re trying to get back
The homework moves along. So does the evening.
The difference
A copied answer won’t last until the test.
Other apps give the answer to your child. Binomino keeps it for you.
An app that answers
Photo, answer, copy.
- The homework is finished, the concept is still shaky.
- The method on screen isn’t the one from their class.
With Binomino
Lesson, question, explanation.
- The method comes from your child’s exercise book.
- You read out a sentence, they work at it, then they explain.
An app that answers. In the test, the phone isn’t there.
With Binomino. In the test, they know how to go about it.
What derails the evening
“In my day, we did it differently.”
You show them how you used to do it. They answer: “that’s not how you do it.”
They’re right. The methods have changed.
In primary school, for a subtraction, many classes break up the ten instead of putting the carry digit at the bottom. At collège, they no longer say “it moves to the other side”: you take the same thing away from both sides.
Two correct methods — and a child who no longer knows which one is theirs. That’s where they lose their footing, not on the arithmetic.
Binomino starts from the lesson written in their exercise book. You explain it the way their class does.
How it works
The method
Three simple actions for you. Real work for them.
02
Read out the sentence.
The method written in their exercise book, the question to ask — and what is better left unsaid.
03
Let them work at it, then have them say it back.
One step at a time. If they get stuck, Binomino gives a prompt. Before moving on, they explain the concept back in their own words: until they can, it hasn’t sunk in.
From CP to Terminale
The evening isn’t the same at six and at seventeen.
Your role changes. So does Binomino.
The video
One homework evening, in thirty seconds.
Parentreads and listens
Binominobreaks it into steps and prompts
Childworks at it and explains
At collège
At thirteen, they no longer want you sitting next to them.
That’s normal. You can still be useful, in a different way.
- Solo mode. They work through it alone, step by step.
- You’re no longer looking over their shoulder. You open “To consolidate” when they have finished, and you know where they got stuck.
- The question comes from the screen. It’s no longer you against them.
- And when things get heated anyway, there’s a button: “Getting tense”.
You don’t know how to do their homework any more. You can still help them.
Day to day
No two evenings are the same.
VOICE
Carry on, even while you do something else.
Binomino reads the instructions and prompts aloud, in your language.
SOLO
They work through it alone, you stay nearby.
You keep an eye on them, Binomino keeps the thread. You only step in if they get stuck.
Parent within reach · child at work
TWO HOMES
The other parent sees what has been done.
At the end of the session, send the other parent the dated summary signed “done with you”: the concept covered, where they got stuck, what still needs going over. They receive it by message, with nothing to install.
You’re the one who sends it: the two phones don’t sync yet.
AFTERWARDS
Every session leaves a trace.
It remembers where they got stuck, not everything.
Languages
You read in your language.
The homework stays in French.
Five languages for you. Only one for them: the one used in class.
- Français
- English
- Español
- Português
- العربية
The interface, the explanations and the sentence to say are translated. What comes from the notebook — the concept, the instructions, the teacher's words — stays in French, because that is what your child will meet again in the test.
The same homework, in four languages. Only « Soustraction posée » stays put.

Keeping track
You know what to go back over. Not everything: where they got stuck.
On Monday evening, you can’t remember what they got stuck on last Thursday. The app can.
TodayTonight’s work, nothing else.
To consolidateThe concepts that put up a fight, to go back over.
DocumentsTheir lessons and homework, scanned and filed.
The dashboard shows the week, and a short list: where they got stuck, not the whole curriculum.
Binomino will not invent a score to please you.
No marks, no rankings. A light week isn’t a bad week. This dashboard is for you: you don’t have to show it to your child.
The curriculum
You can see where they are in the school year.
Not just tonight’s homework.
BeforeWhat was learnt last year.
This yearThe concepts on the curriculum, in order — Binomino places tonight’s homework among them.
AfterWhat the year is building towards — “Preparing for CM1: large numbers up to a million.”
This is what explains why they get stuck. A child who trips up on fractions is often tripping up on sharing, covered two years earlier.
Maths, French, science and English. From CP to Terminale.
Drawn up from the official curricula of the Éducation nationale, not from their class’s homework diary: every teacher works through it in their own order, so the position in the year is an estimate. Binomino does not assess your child.
School holidays
Summer isn’t for catching up.
You take your time.
Ten minutes a day. No marks, no tests.
During the school year, you can’t stop: the class moves on, the homework is due tomorrow, and whatever wasn’t understood stays lodged there. In summer, there’s no tomorrow morning.
Without use, the automatic skills grow dull — times tables, written arithmetic, spelling, fluent reading. Not your child's intelligence. They come back quickly once taken up again.
How it works
The ground rules
Your data stays on your phone. All but one.
Nothing to create, nothing to remember.
Profiles and history stay on your phone. An encrypted backup lets you move to a new device.
It leaves, just long enough to be read.
Encrypted, to the service that reads the page. It is not kept on our servers, trains no model, and is never resold. The details.
The exercise book and the teacher have the final say.
If something isn’t right in your child’s work, the first person to speak to is still their teacher.

I’m rubbish at maths. Does it still work?
Yes. You have nothing to solve. Binomino prepares the sentence to say, and you listen to your child work it out.
I don’t speak much French. What do I do?
You read the app in English, Spanish, Portuguese or Arabic. The homework stays in French.
Does the app end up giving the answer?
For you, yes: the worked answer comes after the steps. It’s there to check with, not to copy out.
What if their teacher does it differently?
The teacher is right, always. If the screen and the exercise book don’t say the same thing, it’s the screen that is wrong: follow the exercise book — and let us know where they differ.
My teenager doesn’t want me sitting next to them any more.
That’s normal at that age. Switch to solo mode: you stay in the room, and you open “To consolidate” when they have finished.
They recite the lesson without a single mistake. Is that enough?
Not yet. Reciting is memory. Ask them to say the lesson again in their own words. If they can, it’s understood. If not, it’s learnt by heart — and that doesn’t hold up against a different question.
I explain it my own way. Is that a problem?
No, but it slows them down: they have to remember two methods instead of one. With Binomino, there’s only one: the sentence on screen follows the method in their exercise book.
How long should it last in the evening?
There’s no right length of time. The work is broken into steps, and you can stop cleanly at the end of any one of them. Stopping before things get heated isn’t giving up.
Does the other parent see the same thing I do?
Not live. You send them the dated summary of the session by message. They have nothing to install. The two phones don’t sync yet.
Is Binomino an Éducation nationale product?
No. It’s an independent app: not published, not approved and not endorsed by the ministry. The concepts come from the official curricula, which are public documents.
