There should be a challenge mode for numbers, shortforms, group signs, etc.. I really like the challenges and they help a lot with speed, maybe you could also make them get progressively harder to match the level of the person using this. I have learned braille from scratch just by using this app, so I rate 5 stars and I recommend for anyone starting out as a beginner.

Great app. I've been going blind for some time, and this app is helping me and my wife learn braille. Great gamification of learning, and after a week I've been able to read signs in braille out in public, and feel like i'm getting the gist of reading simple texts. The only thing I think could be improved is the mix of practice problems. For example, when I select nimbers, punctuation, and letters for practice, I got 89 numbers, 3 letters, and 8 pieces of punctuation, which is obviously skewed and not super great for continued learning to keep everything in learning top of mind to reinforce the different elements. Otherwise, great app, and $0.99 price tag to kill ads is reasonable.

Thanks, that's fantastic to hear! I understand the problem with mixing numbers in practise - I am hoping to fix this in a future feature!

Great app for UEB. Lots of fun. Possible changes: when writing symbols that use more than one cell, maybe have the number of cells you need at the bottom so you have to put in the whole thing before you check it. Hearing the ding tends to tell me to move on to the next thing, and it gets confusing. I also think that a dark theme should be available early in. The basic white theme and the other bright colors makes my eyes hurt. Also maybe more structured lessons. Overall, love it!
