Memo Glyph for Android
It's definitely helped me learn various glyphs in Ingress. It's got a clean UI with several modes to break up the monotony of learning. Worth checking out if you're serious about glyph hacking.
It has been very helpful for learning the glyphs. I was only able to get the translator badge after practicing with this app. But because the line snaps to the dots, it's been hard to trace certain glyphs, and I haven't been able to trace the imperfect glyph at all.
It's pretty good, but has a few flaws that I wish could be fixed. In SVV mode, Ingress glyphs only, whenever I trace the glyph for imperfect, it says I did it wrong, even when I do it right. It keeps messing up my score.
My favorite is genius mode, easy practice anytime, anywhere. Also love search mode, I can draw the glyph and learn the name. Definitely has improved my hacking ability!
The only thing it needs to be complete is complex glyphing (it's faster), the "redo" button, and display the % alongside the glyph time like Ingress does (% is just the percentage of time left on the timer, but greatly impacts hack output)
In general this is a great tool to learn glyph hacking but it is bad need of an update to include the latest changes in Ingress. I really dislike the pause at the beginning of the time trial.
When will you add Complex hacks mode? On the real game you can put your finger on the screen before start to start earlier, on Memo Glyph you lose the first glyph when you do so.
Kind of weird with no sound but I understand that you have to avoid copyright issues. The line-drawing from node to node makes it easier to draw here than in the game which makes the actual glyph hacking a bit harder because it behaves differently than you would expect. Maybe change the line with a free-drawing tool that tracks the order of nodes touched.
Good simulator, would like an exact replica (redo button). Missing glyphs: abandon, destination, legacy, n'zeer, perspective, us
One minor issue: can't redo glyphs in simulation mode, no complex hack mode.
It's a fanatic app, but lacks new glyphs and appears to have no one working on it.
Great option for the novice glyph hacker. Good for sitting at home and getting some practice. It shouldn't be too long until the new glyphs get added.
Very useful for learning new glyphs, or just keeping your skills sharp. The different modes keep things interesting, and with the ability to search for any glyph, just by drawing it, this is my go to for anything glyph related.
Quicker than its in-game counterpart. The ability to repeat the whole sequence as desired is useful. It lacks the retry button, but that's minor. Several game modes add variety. It's upped my glyphing skill tremendously!
I wanted to train L8 Glyphs but there is no complex, please update for complex and simple
Downloaded and deleted a few before settling on this one to up my glyph game. Could do with some additions, but Def best available
Not up to date anymore. New glyphs and sequences are missing
Sadly very or of date as there are many new glyphs not included. Still a great app
I couldn't have gotten my Onyx Translator without it!!
This app is very helpful in practising glyphing and learning the meaning of the glyphs. I just wish there was a complex hack simulation mode, then I'd give it 5 be stars. It feels very similar to the actual game which helps build muscle memory. Another feature I'd like to see is statistics of which glyphs you most often get wrong and a mode to practice those.
I'm kind of annoyed that I can only trace the first glyph now. It is hard to watch the glyph and then tap the tiny little tile. Half the time my finger hits the wrong spot and ruins the hack.
Good app, will absolutely make you a better glypher in this game. My only problem is that the Simulation part, its slower than real game, its like im entering simplehack command haha. Other than that, its good
Search no more, I tried several other similar app a bit this is the best. Also very good response to the touch screen.
This has really helped enhance my glyphing skills; I just wish that there was a redo button, as I sometimes fat-finger a glyph I know perfectly well, but there's no way to correct it. Also, if you ever plan on making selectable speeds on the simulator, I recommend not only simple, regular, and complex, but also speeds in-between to help one ease into the next level...
Grear to practice glyphs. Needs some improvements in cataloging/tagging the sequences as show/no show. As is now that function is messy. Otherwise all perfect!
Saw immediate results and increases in my glyph hacking abilities right away. Definitely helps you with your accuracy, your speed and memorization. I do think, like many others, that there should be a way to calculate your percentage of accuracy. But otherwise perfect. Thank you!
Very helpful in learning glyphs. A near future feature could be the ability to program which glyphs you get tested on. Just a suggestion. Really helpful app...thanks!
Great tool for glyph hacking. I didn't know I could until I was level 6. This helped me catch up on all the symbols.
Definitely helps learn glyphs. I would like it if it were easier to set it up to just test me on certain glyphs--it takes a lot of steps to do that now.
It takes glyph hacking to another level. Thanks for the link about "imperfect". I would have never figured it out.
Awesome job simulating the real thing! I like that I can repeat sequences until they're perfected/memorized.
Played this game for an hour or so when I started Ingress and it made my hacking runs much more productive.
Helps old fat men like me with "oldtimers" learn to glyph hack
Quick updates for new glyphs, easy training. This really helped me improve my glyph game!
Great app. I recommend it to all newbie players. It helped me learn the correct names of all the glyphs and helped me get Onyx Translator in my first 7 months of playing.
Great for practice, I wish there was an option for complex hacks, the timing is important. Better of all, this app doesn't a full set of permissions ;)
Love it! Fully encompassing glyph app. Love the memorization games, and practice. The "search library" is excellent. Allows me to search and just demo all the ones I know. Excellent!
Great app if you're looking to improve your glyph hacking skills.
Freezes sometimes but rarely. Overall very good for practicing.

Thorough tutor for learning ingress glyphs. Many game modes available. My complaint is just with regard to the way it makes your traced lines snap to points immediately as you trace them as opposed to when you lift your finger from the screen like the actual game does. The immediate snapping makes it more difficult to practice the imperfect glyph. Feature request: statistics that show how frequently I make mistakes on particular glyphs.
