Trainer funktioniert nicht mehr

Tolle App
Praktisch und motivierend
Ok so far.
I wouldn’t really recommend it at this price, and given the number of reviews it seems that that is the general consensus.
A few issues for an expensive app.
The first thing I did was turn off images… although memory palaces are made of images, the ones here have too many interpretations. I don’t know what a macaw looks like, that picture is clearly a dart and not an arrow, how do I tell this is the sun and not the sky, etc.
You are able to edit the words and pictures, but I don’t feel like spending the time to redo the entire set of 100-1000 flash cards.
Thankfully, you can switch to words only, which is especially necessary if you break into triple digits… some words don’t seem to have photos or be translatable into a photo.
Many of the 3 digit words I have never even heard of and while they’re fine for the trainer it makes the generator less useful since the words are impossible for a layman to imagine.
There’s another major(heh) issue where sometimes Sh- words are interpreted as S words and get quizzed wrong.
I also think this app would be better off with text input as an option in word to text, since it can sometimes clue you in on the right choice by elimination.
I wouldn’t nitpick like this but this app is absurdly expensive for what is essentially flash cards, honestly you might be better off getting Anki and downloading someone’s major system set.
Please take better care in your app development if you’re going to set the price this high.
Great App with Unique Functionalities
I have always used notes or excel to create my personal PAO/Major System but this app facilitates everything. It’s easy to use and has great functionalities.
Although the app has been around for years and might not be popular, the developers recently (2022) started providing new updates to ensure it functions properly and even added new features.
I recently contacted support and got a response within hours, which is impressive given it was launched nearly a decade ago.
Very happy with the app and its developers and highly recommend it to anyone interested in creating or improving their Major System.
Nach dem Update auf Version 3.0 perfekt
Das Trainieren der Mnemo-Liste macht Spaß mit dieser App. Im Playout-Modus werden Begriffe, die man falsch beantwortet, solange erneut angezeigt, bis man sie beherrscht. Begriffe, die man richtig beantwortet, werden dagegen nicht erneut angezeigt. So übt man besonders die Begriffe, die noch Übung brauchen. Wenn man eine Antwort falsch antippt, dreht sich die Antwortkarte kurz um und zeigt das Bild oder die Zahl der falschen Antwort an, so dann man auch gleich erkennt, was der Fehler war.
Danke an den Entwickler für diese tolle App und den netten Support bei meinen Rückfragen!
Love it.
Gut durchdachte Lernsoftware
Für Mnemofreunde absolut fantastische App
Diese App hier sieht modern aus, lässt sich frei mit eigenen Bildern und Begriffen füllen oder bei bestehenden konfigurieren und bietet ein Training, das Spaß macht, so dass die Zahlen bis 99 bald kein Problem und weitere Zahlen/Bilder bis 999 leicht möglich sein werden.
Beste App für das erlernen des Major Systems
Empfehlenswert
Ich hatte noch ein paar Schwierigkeiten mit dem Ex-/ Import von csv-Dateien, doch dank der schnellen und freundlichen Unterstützung des Entwicklers konnte ich das schnell lösen.
Some nice ideas and implementation but annoying details to work through
For example I sent this to Support but never heard back:
Sauce -- shows more strawberry than sauce, and chocolate is not a common "sauce"
Waste -- shows a typical holder of waste rather than actual waste
Sour -- shows a lemon, which has a sour taste in the juice, but on a big list of nouns having a photo represent a "taste" is inconsistent. Perhaps a face with a sour expression is better
Ice -- Americans think of ice cubes from the fridge, not ice crystals that are hard to see on the phone photo
Tea -- Americans almost never drink tea out of a clear glass jar. Looks more like honey
Ham -- looks more like a cut of beefsteak than the way ham is often prepared
Arrow -- very clearly NOT an arrow. That is what is called a "Dart"
Team -- would be better if one at the top was not red and all the others white, making us think of the individual at the top, not the whole “team”
Door -- more of a cartoon of a door, or a toy, than a typical door. Very few people have blue doors
Douche -- Not a good word for American English.
Nut -- most people think of walnuts, pecans, cashews, etc. NOT coconuts
Weiner -- the word is singular, so the photo should show just one
Nail -- the word is singular, the photo should show just one
Ink -- should just show the inkwell, NOT the pen
Knob -- Americans think of the device that opens a door as a knob. The photo is of a "button"
Moss -- looks more like "sprouts" or soemthing. Moss is usually seen as a green growth at the base of a tree or on a rock.
Mommy -- would be better if the mother was the focal point of the mommy picture, not the baby
Match -- word is singular, the photo should be
Rat -- the photo is very clearly what americans consider a "mouse". The grey Norway rat is what we envision as a rat
Rome -- the photo is of a dome-like building shape used in many governmental buildings in the world. Better an image a thing in Rome that has a distinctive shape that is unique looking on a 15x15 millimeter image
Rock -- word is singular, image should be of just one
Robe -- photo shouldn't include the face of a person as the focal point
Light -- of all the 1,000,000 of classic, real, day-to-day lights we all see, why choose a photo of an imaginary one coming off of the thumb that barely shows the light part?
Lamb -- word is singular, image should just be of one
Jewel -- tough one. Image is too close to "gem", another 2-number word
Judge -- Americans think of images of people who serve the role of judge, Not a statue of a Greek goodess of judgment
Sheaf -- tough one, but a sheaf of papers is more pertinent to modern lifestyle
Ship -- Very unusual ship. A typical "ship" would be an ocean liner or warship. Your image is very clearly a "ferry"
Okra -- outright wrong. That is not what okra looks like. Okra is green. Your image is of a pepper
Cook -- your image is of a hat. A "cook" is either the person who cooks (in which case a person wearing the hat with an apron makes sense) or it is a verb to cook (in which case a person in the act of cooking say on a pan at a stove.
Fuse -- the image is of an obscure type of fuse few non-auto-mechanics see. A classic 1960s "breaker box" fuse would make more sense
Foot -- Word is singular, photo should show just one. A ballet-position posed photo of 2 feet with a flower as the focal point is especially misleading
Foam -- Image is of "bubbles". Foam is generally white and the bubbles in foam are too small to see.
Fig -- Maybe that is an image of a fig, but most would think of cactus rather than fig
Fife -- To Americas a fife is a small wooden flute. The image is of a "pipe"
Fob -- The image is of a "watch". Fob is hard, but the image is not good.
Bat -- sure that might be a bat, but Americans generally think of bats in flight, where we might see their distinctive wings
Bone -- A bone alone is much better than a bone in a bowl
Pool -- too much going on, especially for a small photo on a phone. The image very well could be a beach coastline.
Pub -- image is of spigots to pull beer. A pub image would better show the front of a pub establishment on a city street.
Response from developer
Dear aoeui555, It is not recommendable to stick with the placeholder images of the Mnemo Major System Trainer. For best results in memorizing you should create your own customized major system. This is exactly what is supported by the App. For each number to memorize a comprehensive collection of alternative example Major System Terms is provided to choose from in the edit view. Alternative images that suit you more can easily be chosen from camera, photo album or the integrated web search for images. A detailed description how to edit the major system is provided from within the app in the integrated manual. If you still have problems customizing your major system please contact support. Best regards Gerald
Einfach genial!
Bei jedem Klick merkt man, dass hier ein Profi am Werk war(ist!), der sich auch noch und gerade in einen Anfänger hineinversetzen kann und sehr viel Zeit in Aufbau und Struktur der App gelegt hat. Intuitiv erschließen sich individualisierte Bilder, die sich auch mühelos wieder verändern lassen.
Langweilig wird es auf Dauer sicher auch einem Profi nicht, da man per CSV Import bei Bedarf in der Lage ist, das vorinstallierte Mastersystem in englischer und deutscher Sprache auf drei weitere zu ergänzen; auch sind 3er Kombinationen generierbar.
Und sollte man sich in den ganzen Einstellungen und Möglichkeiten irgendwo verlieren, steht der Entwickler persönlich zur Unterstützung zeitnah zur Verfügung.
Diese App ist jeden Cent wert und für mich die Beste im Store-
klare Kaufempfehlung!
Like it
Presets are poor, but you can override them
