Installed it right away. Great extension, thanks for making it!

I actually don't know how the video is made. How do you create, and modify, a video with a programming language?

Me too.

Hey, thanks for the feedback!

- I know the video view can't be full screen, I couldn't make it work. I even asked on stackoverflow with no success.

- The same thing when you press random is a bit annoying, I agree, but I didn't think that would be a big problem. I will definitely change that in the update.

- I wanted the main page to be as simple as possible, for the user to have that 'oh, what does this button do' and have the 'look what I found' moment. I will change that also since it didn't do what I intended.

- I honestly don't know what to change at the Quiz layout. If you can give me some suggestions, that would be great.

- Low frame rate? That's odd, I'll look into it.

- I wanted to have some games in the app as well and these are the simplest I could find and modify. The counter is a bit too much, I agree.

Thanks again, your feedback will surely be used in the update.

Hey, thanks for the feedback.

I'll add it right now.

EDIT: I wrote: Used if you have 5 minutes to kill. Is that ok?

Did not think of letting the users submit something. Probably not, since I want this app opened and getting to some content as fast as possible. I know it has nothing to do with what you asked, but it seems too complicated for this kind of app. If the app is liked and being used, content will be added.

Hey, thanks for the feedback.

I understand that I need a better landing page, but my real problem is getting users to see my app. I suck at marketing and when this HN post will fade out, I'm sure nobody will at least look at the app anymore.

I'm currently doing a video overview of the app and slowly making people to like my facebook page. Is there anything more that I can do? Writing a blog post is the next thing on the list.

Hey,

I used the basic, Xcode and Photoshop. The content was added manually, a big mistake on my part.

I hope that was the answer you were looking for.

Hey, thanks for the feedback.

I will change the background image right now.

EDIT: Changed it.

I was afraid that the description and the screenshots are not explanatory enough, but it seems you pretty much got it. Do you have any suggestions on what can I change for people to understand the app better?

Hey, thanks for your comment.

You can use it to read short-stories, watch interesting videos, learn facts and basic phrases for ten languages or play some simple games.

You use this app if you have 5 minutes to kill.

I'm working on an explanatory video of the app right now.

Never-Bored (http://mide765.com) - An iOS app you use when you have some time to kill. It's cool because you can choose between four topics depending on your mood and environment. You can read short-stories, watch interesting videos, learn facts and basic phrases for ten languages or play some games such as Pong.

On a personal level, I've started using Xcode for the first time on third of September. This is the final product of my first try on doing an iOS app.

Any feedback is appreciated.
