I wish they changed the application's name to "Glyph" instead of "Glyphs", since the latter, in my opinion, has an inherent phonetical complication between two fricatives – the "f" fricative tailed by the (voiceless alveolar) sibilant fricative, "s" – and is therefore much harder to pronounce.

"Glyphs" with an "s" in the end also reduces the literal/grammatical efficiency of the name, such as in possessive use.

In all fairness and seriousness, though, I think this app looks VERY interesting.

Hope that development stays strong on this. It is incredible promising, quite powerful already. Word needs to get out about Glyphs!
