Leave a Review Code! Learn Swift Version
Simple, effective, and helpful. Slightly frustrating at first.
For learning coding with Swift it's very simplified and helpful. It's perhaps a little too simplified though with barely any tutorial in advance you're forced to learn on the fly. This works well for some, but not all. So far I find it very helpful once I figured out the learning curve of how to use the app. If there was a quick tutorial of how to use the app first it would be slightly less frustrating.Show lessPrim3y
Pretty good, could be better
I've never done coding before so the app wasn't a walk in the park. It's for beginners but there are some things that the app expects you to know even if it was taught or expressed earlier on, forcing you to watch the tutorial videos. The tutorial videos are alright, it's just that some people learn better from reading instructions. Besides that, everything else was pretty nice. There were a few errors from here to there but I still learned a great amount so far.Show lessJlerby
Forcing me to rate
I find it absolutely annoying as I was getting into the coding I click on the next step and it forces me to stop. I'll rate you on my choice of time not yours. Can I be done with this review?!?!? I find it simple enough to use. I wanted something to tinker around with on my free time and now I have your app but not really using it because I'm having to write this review. How much more do I have to write on here until it's accepted and I can move onto the coding steps beyond the first 20?Show lessMr.Bdub
Decent
This app is okay. Some of the solutions have things that weren't taught in previous lessons, so I struggled. I even went back and reviewed previous lessons to try to figure out the answer to a bigger solution to no avail.
I don't like that if I go back to a previously passed lesson, my solution is gone and I have to re-work that lesson.
Not much depth to what I am doing and why I am doing it. This is truly a "this is what syntax looks like" type of app. While I enjoy learning syntax and I do want to know the "why's" of things so I can use them on a much bigger scale correctly and be able to apply it all over. I have been using other tools (specifically playgrounds) to learn, but this app and playgrounds are teaching 2 very different concepts; so it's good there isn't much overlap.Show lesstklafleur
So happy but....
So to be completely Cliche, I didn't realize how awesome coding was until watching Arrow. Something about seeing a woman who wasn't just pretty but also smart made me want to learn more about Coding. This app has been absolutely amazing so far and it's not surprise that big businesses will soon be transferring over to Swift as their coding language. I would love to learn more but don't really have the $$$ to spend on unlocking all features..... I know that sounds silly but it's either this app or toll bridge. Thank you to the developer for making this app!!!!Show lessKaylaCordeau
Helpful but left with Q's
I am looking into the world of coding. This little app has so much potential. My biggest confusions come from "why?" "Why do I enter these values" and a little more detail to "where did this value come from?" This will be so helpful for someone who is technologically challenged, as soon as there is more flow and detail explained in the exercises. However, I am learning, and maybe it'll take a few play throughs to get it. I really want to be able to understand it all and all the how's.Show lessShawnM419
Nice first section
This app is inspiring, immersive, critically routed and empirically designed. I would like to periodically see synthesis of the concepts thus introduced, to balance the excellent pragmatic bias with its basis-- especially as schema(tization) of typographical conventions--perhaps between exposition and challenge phase, or after challenge if you're designing for more masochistic user experience... I was clearly the kid who preferred permission to forgiveness, and didn't get the reward fanfare as frequently as I feel entitled to...
As per other reviews, sound design leaves something to be desired, but the voice talent on the videos is precise, pleasant, and should be noted for beneficial clarifications.
Should the talent have the leisure for it,I'd love to hear a Hesse Hausmärchen narrated, in the original or translated. I've got $5 on:

Thanks for your swift tutorials!Show lesssoundGrates
Great App! One small issue.
For learning swift (or perhaps even programming in general) this app appears to be awesome. One hiccup however is that whenever the user completes an objective it plays a happy celebratory sound. That itself isn't the problem, what is is that the sound interrupts audiobooks or music playing and pauses said auditory enjoyment. Otherwise it's a fantastic app worth checking out.Show lessdefmoose
Helpful & Well Paced
Thank you, but the "rate the app" box at the out of module 1 and then the in of module 2 is kinda grating.
I'm working 3 other variants of this "Swift coding tutorial"-type app, and I enjoy this as well as 2 of the other 3, but this "quirk" compels me to rank this 3rd of the 4.
A month later & I sprung for the pay-to-play for ch 3, onward. The first session back had me running through front 6 of 11 topics in chapter 3.
It's nice to be working with CodeSwift again. I'm still working with the other 2 similar apps mentioned above, and CS surely has its place as and equal to the others. The concept explanation, here, is thinner than with the other 2, but I like the lean way CS is set up.
...and here I am again -- even after purchasing the "unlock all chapters" ($4.99) option -- at the end of another chapter (3):
...had rated 4 stars, just took one of those away
...info's still GOOD: was thinking of taking 4 up to 5 (was going to give it another chapter or two before doing so), but this is SILLY, now: cannot get from chapter 3 to 4 by clicking "later" on the "rate this app" pop-up [forgetting that I've already done this twice before]
...let's see if we go down to 2 stars after chapter 4Show lesssloseaba88
So far so good
Thus far it's been enjoyable and enlightening. I decided to use this to help get past a issue that I'm stuck at witching Udacity's iOS program. I haven't gotten to that part of the lesson within this app yet, but when I do I will rate again on whether or not it helps with the issue I have outside of this app.
The app does make you rate, like others have stated before me. It seems though it will not let me move forward even after rating. If it doesn't get squared in a few, then I will knock a star off.Show lesslisamarie2infinity
