Giving this a shot thank you for sharing! A bit of a tangent here...It might just be me, but I always struggle with confusing similar characters together (I don't handwrite so happens often especially when I see them out of context). I find when using ANKI that I think I know a character but I only know it relative to the set of characters I'm learning. That character is considered learned, but when a new character that's similar gets added, I have to essentially relearn both. I built a very simple tool integrating Anki with ios shortcuts to get me to quickly add commonly confused characters and then test me on those characters specifically. I found that helped me a lot but isn't an ideal solution. If this is a common issue with others, it might be something to consider adding! Some initial thoughts + feedback on the app: Overwhelming! It might be worth creating a very very simple guided process to get people clicking and playing right away, and then the ability to dig deeper and customize your cards can be done later. Adding from a list of too many options feels a bit dizzying. There could be an auto-mode that lets me get a feel of the app first then later can go 'oh I can customize' |

I actually have considered adding a feature for easily-confused characters in a more obvious way. As for now, you can filter by a particular radical, but that requires you applying it outside of a card. I would like to eventually show easily confused cards or a way to directly apply a radical filter from directly inside of cards, based on the radical components of that character. I will have to get that one back on the list. Even if it is not comprehensive to start, there would definitely be a benefit to cover some of the most commonly confused characters (己/已，土/士, etc).
It has definitely been a challenge to get the balance right of getting people up and running, while also fully understanding the capabilities JinbuPal has right from start. We will have to consider how best to accomplish that and I appreciate your suggestions. It sounds like we still have some tweaking to do to get the balance right there!
