In my personal experience with Memrise is that it does a lot of overtesting for new words. It shows you a card that you have seen the first time and marked as true again in the same session.
I agree that dragging and clicking on multiple choice items don’t work well on the laptop. Typing doesn’t work well on phones.
Multitouch is simple a completely different way of interacting with a device.
On a multitouch device you would want ideally to have to a map and simple click on the country on the map to select it. Speed Anatomy does that really well but it doesn’t do spaced repetition.
At the moment I’m working on getting binary choices on phones right and afterwards I will go to challenges such as clicking on items on a map.
As those kinds of answers can be scored automatically I’m also getting rid of self evaluation. I want to instead replace it with calculating confidence in the card via things like pressure, time taking to answer and where a button get’s pressed. If you want you can then click all buttons for card where you are sure on the top and all buttons where you are unsure on the bottom and the App will automatically learn your pattern.
Smart users who want to tell the App their confidence (so that the app calculates intervals better) can and the average user that doesn’t care isn’t distracted and the app might even find unconscious patterns.
