Ok but not worth the money

So I got this app cause I wanted to work on my kerning and leading. I thought this app was going to be really interactive and more of a game to help me learn but it is more informative and not very helpful. There is a kerning “game” but the app does not have any information on what to do with the app. Not worth the few bucks

FABULOSA PARA APRENDER LOS BÁSICOS DE LA TIPOGRAFÍA

La uso constantemente para mis clases.
Es intuitiva, completa y asertiva.

Für das Geld ein wenig dürftig ...

Die App bietet ein gewisses Grundwissen zur Typographie. Allerdings ist die Präsentation auf das absolute Minimum reduziert, kein Audio, kein Video - nur Text und ein paar interaktive Bereiche zum selber probieren. Hätte man mehr daraus machen können.

Description mensongère par Apple !!!

On peut lire dans le texte rédigé par l’équipe marketing d’Apple sur l’Apple Store que l’on saura ce que sont l’ascendeur, le descendeur, l’approche. Or, l’appli est entièrement en anglais. Donc, on n’apprend pas du tout le vocabulaire français comme le laisse croire le baratin affiché dans l’Apple Store !!! Pour le prix, Adobe aurait pu prendre la peine de tout traduire en français, et Apple aurait pu préciser « Tout le vocabulaire typographique de l'appli est en anglais ».
Donc, on n’apprend rien de plus que ce que l’on aurait pu lire sur les sites en anglais consacrés à la typographie. Lisez Wikipedia en anglais, vous en saurez autant.

Crashes

Lots of features will insta-crash, like “the basics”, not ideal, but the features I needed it for work right now, and are very good

Not worth £3

Looks promising, and very nice, but crashes upon attempting to use all but “typeface anatomy tool”. Love to use it but can’t. Waste of money.

Useful

Hugely disappointing that we can’t use Adobe Typekit with an Enterprise ID. After reading there was now Adobe integration I purchased the app...but I feel I’m not getting full use unless I can access my own type library.

Presumably I’ll be told this is an Adobe licensing issue and not Typography Insight?

Suggestion...

Pinch to zoom on the overlay comparison should allow for resizing only the left or right glyph (if gesture is conducted on the edge rather than center of the screen).

Very interesting app

Just a neat series of little interactive displays that teach you all sorts of things you never knew about typography. A fun relaxing app with a clean, intuitive interface and a pleasant design. Makes you wish more apps would follow suit. Look forward to future updates.

Very useful

A German Translation would be nice though

Very cool

I would not say that this is an instructional app, but rather a “cliffs notes” accessory that is EXTREMELY handy to have on-hand at all times. Very well done and well designed. All killer, no filler.

Brilliant Introduction to Typography

My father was an old-time Compositor who worked with wood-and-lead blocks. This App has helped me to understand his craft *and* explain my preference for particular forms of type... Oh yes; it also clearly explains the difference between 'font' and 'typeface'!

Love it!

For those who loves type

An well design app for font and type lovers!

Lousy

Useless app, and a typography app shouldn't have such ugly typographical errors.

Typography Insight

This is a great application for those who are interested in the study of Typography. The app title is a perfect description as you can gain insight into the study of Typography with a learning basics section, a section on the main examples of fonts and styles used in our everyday life, and even learn directly with practice activities contained inside. The design itself is a compliment to the application as you can easily navigate the clear white interface that allows you to hone in on the visuals presented without any external visual noise getting in your way. The app wouldn't be as effective with bad design and it also would be somewhat ironic if it had.

Amazing

As an aspiring typographer myself, I find this app extremely useful. Not only does it have references, complete access to Adobe Typekit, and 3 categories of information, but there are practice activities where you can get better at kerning, measuring, comparing, etc. I would highly recommend this to anybody interested in Typography.

Best Wishes

Спасибо за интеграцию с Typekit

Все надеялся, что Adobe сделает подобный шаг.

Valoración

Muy instructiva y muy bien hecha, aunque con algunos fallitos mínimos de texto. Pero por lo demás, genial.

Fantastic !

It's an amazing tool to understand type ! Best I've seen so far.

Awesome App!!!

This app is very informative and educational. Excellent resource for anyone interested in typography or type design.
