2 weeks ago, Word List Lite appeared on App Store, and it received great response, we received emails pointing out bugs, suggesting new features, and some, applauding as well
I have been working on improvements (mostly in my spare time), Word List Premium will hopefully be submitted to App Store by next week end. Here are two screens to give you an idea of what the next version would look like.
Changes:
- The words and definitions are now coming from WordNet. Definitions also include type of word (verb, noun, etc) and examples sentences now.
- Flip button has been replaced with Shuffle button (top right), it can be used to shuffle the current word list
- More flexibility for word categorization i.e. easy/medium/hard. List Selection Screen (not shown here) also has buttons for these categories for each list (which appear only if there are some categorized words in a list i.e. “Hard” button will not appear in a front of a list if there are no “hard” words in it)
- User can tap on the card to show word’s definition and double-tap to go to next card.
- The Flip animation has been removed, it proved to be very distracting when using the app for long hours
- Animations for next/previous card has been replaced with simpler and less distracting animations (i hope so
) - List Selection screen now opens at the last selected word list (i.e. if you were practicing list 37, you won’t have to scroll all the way down from list 01, it would open with list 37 visible on the screen).
- and Some UI bug fixes and other enhancements which may not be readily visible to end user =)
Thanks to all of the people who sent their valuable feedback, please keep the suggestions coming.
EDIT 1: We made some minor modifications to the UI
EDIT 2: We have submitted the 3 versions (SAT, GRE, and Premium) to the AppStore on Sunday, Nov 9. Hopefully it’ll appear to the public by next weekend.
