2 Opinions
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 â“ the "f" fricative tailed by the (voiceless alveolar) sibilant fricative, "s" â“ 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!
