Share My Creation Math Tutor

Hello everyone, i wanted to see if some of you could test this app, My son is 8 years old and is currently learning multiplications and divisions, i decided to make this app to help him with his multiplication tables, it is not yet finished but i wanted to see if you guys could test what i have so far and give me some feedback, depending on the feedback i also plan to release it to google play market, at the moment this is only intended for my son to Study his times tables.

The .apk file is too big to put it as an attachment in the forum, so you guys can download it from here

Here are a few ScreenShots



Thanks All!

Great simple app. Looks good on my Samsung 10.1 and Infuse.

Thanks, any suggestions, ideas?

Sound?

I have a few childrens math and memory apps I made for my four year old such as Froggy Math.

I'm curious of your method of implementing the animation for the numbers.
It's very smooth.

 

[walterf25]

Hi there, i use the Tween Library to animate the numbers, I also use the AnimationPlus Library for the answer numbers.
I tried downloading your froggy app but when i launch it i get an error

here are some screenshots:

and here is the error from the filtered Logs:

I really like it!

I really like it!

Very well thought out, works really well!

You need an icon. perhaps that sun with sunglasses on could be your icon?
I love that icon! a sun with sunglasses on how cool!

Does it need sound? I don't know, a catchy tune maybe but with the ability to turn it off (menu options).

What about a score? I don't know if that might be a good or a bad idea.

Perhaps a score but only for the ones they get right?
That way its always positive and they're always moving forwards.

I really like it, I'm keeping it!

This is a strange one. I only get this error on my apps made with b4a and then only if another one of my apps made with b4a is still open. I also only see it on my Samsung Infuse. I have several other testing devices and this never shows up.
What happens then is all of my b4a apps crash if I try to run them. I have go into settings/apps and force close everything before any of them will run again.

 

[walterf25]

@IanMC, thank you so much for all your positive feedback, and yeah the app is still not finished, i still plan on adding more stuff to it, an icon is one of them, music also, and of course the score, but thank you so much for all your feedback.

@ WAZUMbi it seems to be a problem with the sound library you are using!

Cheers,
Walter

 

[IanMc]

Sound and everything might be nice but although it's very simple, this app actually allows you to get down to work solving those maths problems as they are thrown at you one after the other.

You can get into a good rhythm and it would be a shame for bells & whistles to take away from that so maybe sound but you can easily turn it off.

Maybe instead of 'Try again' you get 'nope but you just got 10 right in a row!'.. Good stuff!

 

[walterf25]

I agree with you, as I mentioned I decided to make this app to help my son with his times tables.
I plan on adding an activity where kids can go and review their tables and then take a quick quizO

 

[tecevit]

Hi,
good looking app.

When the answer is wrong, we dont get the correct answer, maybe this is intended ?

 

[IanMc]

Oh, is it for kids?

Techno Dad!

Your son will be asked 'how come you're so good at math?' and he'll say, oh, my dad made an app for me ... and the other kids'll be ... oh wow!

But by that time your son will be making his own B4a apps

 

[walterf25]

tecevit, thanks buddy, i know about when the answer is wrong you don't get a second chance to get it right, i've fixed this issue, i will upload the latest apk file when i get a chance.

Thanks,
Walter

 

[walterf25]

IanMc, i know right, i would love it if he got interested in learning how to make his own apps, that is actually one of my goals for this year, to start teaching him about programming

Cheers,
Walter
