Does Pentire have ads or in-app chat?

No ads, ever, and no chat or social features. The only sharing is an optional short puzzle code a parent can send so someone else can play the same puzzle. Pentire is rated 4+ on the App Store.

Sticker puzzles for kids

Twelve big, chunky stickers. No ads, no chat, no account. Works on a plane. And it can turn your kid's own drawing into a puzzle they finish themselves.

Updated July 2026 · A Pentire guide

Kids already love physical sticker-by-number books — Pentire is that, endlessly. Every puzzle becomes numbered outline slots and a tray of sticker pieces to drag into place. On the Starter difficulty a picture is just 12 big stickers with friendly snapping and the number printed right on each piece, so a preschooler can finish a picture solo — and beam about it.

What makes it work for little ones

Starter mode: 12 big pieces. Generous snap distance and forgiving rotation mean small fingers succeed. Easy (25 pieces) is the natural next step as they grow.
Numbers on the stickers. A settings toggle prints each piece's number on it — matching "3 goes to 3" is the same skill the paper books teach.
No ads. No chat. Nothing to tap out to. Play is a full-screen board with a sticker tray — no banner ads, no popups, no social features, no external links mid-game. Rated 4+.
Works offline. The whole app — library, art generator, photo import, play — runs without internet. Flights and road trips, handled.
Gentle by design. No timers, no lives, no failure states. Soft sounds (with an off switch) and a calm reveal at the end.

Puzzles from their own world

The magic trick for kids: make the puzzle out of something they love.

Their drawing. Photograph today's masterpiece and it becomes a 12-piece puzzle in about a minute — an amazing "look what you made" moment.
The family pet. A photo of the dog or cat is the most-requested puzzle in any house.
Family photos. Grandma, the beach trip, their own birthday cake. Photos are processed entirely on-device and never uploaded — family pictures stay in the family.
Generated art. The built-in generator makes friendly space, ocean, farm, and food scenes on demand — 60 ready-made puzzles come built in, and "Surprise me" never runs out.

For parents: the privacy story

Pentire requires no account and collects no personal profile. Imported photos never leave the device. There are no third-party ads or trackers. The only network traffic is an anonymous configuration check and, if you buy the optional upgrade, Apple's standard purchase processing. Full details in the privacy policy.

It grows with them

The same puzzle scales from 12 stickers to 220, across four piece shapes — including a classic jigsaw-style cut — and four art styles. The picture your four-year-old finishes in Starter today is the expert build they'll grind through happily at ten. One app, the whole childhood.

Calm screen time you can feel good about. Free to start — no ads, no account, offline-friendly.
