Koch Trainer for Android
Great app to help learn cw via the Koch method! The latest update added in Farnsworth timing which I was hoping would be included. The UI looks nicer too. Keep up the good work! The new option to send words is great, but would love to see the ability to send words made up of the letters learned in a particular lesson.
All you people b1tching about the app not working, did you let the author know? It had always worked on my HTC EVO 4G, I just got a new Galaxy s3 and it would not stop and locked my phone up. I emailed the author and he updated the program in less than 5 hours. It works great on my phone now. It is not only a great program, but that's awesome support!
It is a neat trainer, but I cant figure out why they cant make the stop button work. How hard can that be? That is a big annoyance as even when you close it, it keeps beeping along in the background somewhere. You end up having too force shut down the app. Glad I did not pay more than a dollar as this would be a deal breaker for me.
Updates have improved quite a bit.
Nice !!!!!
It doesn't really help learning to just have the thing beep at you relentlessly, rather than demonstrate and then require you to enter the characters.
Basic App with bugs (try hitting Play multiple times) and basic facilities. No ability to change inter character spacing only wpm.
V1.1 It doesn't remember settings between runs. Crashes if phone put to idle. Crashes and resets phone if speed changed while running.

Quality is pretty satisfying. Price is right. Maybe add option to write characters with pen for tablets like EVGA Tegra Note or Galaxy Note but that's just if you like a good challenge. :-)
