You're right, I'm still looking for the right color scheme mood for the app. As Marc noted above, the font is kind of childish too. It's difficult to improve at the moment as I'm not a designer, but good to know that's an issue and will keep that in mind for future updates. The color scheme was originally more toned down, but it felt too clinical to me, I attached a screenshot below. What do you think?
It's the average of progress bars of all the words. The progress bars for words represent number of correct answers over the last 5 times you saw the word. That way, when you answer each war correctly 5 times in a row, your progress bar is completely filled up. It's a bit difficult to explain, so I didn't do that in the app. Any ideas how this can be improved?
Definitely worth doing. I'll need a good library of Chinese pronunciations, if anyone knows how I can get hold of these, do let me know! I know there's api.forvo.com/, I have it in my backlog to find out if I can store the downloaded recordings and serve them from within the app instead of calling their API each time.
Great idea, I'll implement that in the next update
Thanks! Very useful noted there.
