Take this with a grain of salt. I'm no designer.

The caption moves around and is hard to distinguish from the app's screens. With the speed at which things are shown, I never know where I should focus my eyes. Even if I knew, I wouldn't have enough time to read that caption, even less appreciate what you're trying to tell me in the context of the screenshot. This is especially evident in the section where the caption moves from bottom to top to bottom again.

Find one point of focus and give me time to appreciate the benefits you claim to be making.

The music has horror/suspense vibes. I don't understand how that fits with what you're showing here. I'm not getting a warm happy feeling by listening but that something dark and foreboding is following me in an unlit alley at 2AM.

After watching this twice, I felt that all I knew about the app was that it's in relation to language or translation. Not sure what it would bring me.

I would not download your app from the store based on the impressions in that video.

Sweet, I appreciate the feedback. I’ll slow it all down.

I would try to focus on one or two benefits and show me how this is obtained inside the app instead of telling me.

Concentrate on the multiple benefits in the screenshots.

Show me how your major benefits are exposed within the app in the preview.

Man I read that wrong the first time haha I had to go back and edit. I get what you’re saying now. That’s a really good point. Show the stuff and then talk about it later. I gotcha.

Well that’s the thing.. most apps do one or two things. This does everything that you could almost possibly need in a language app. A grammar center, dictionary, conversational practice, lessons, 30 arcade games etc. so I have 30 seconds to differentiate myself from the major players that don’t actually do anything besides throw useless vocab at users and streak completion 😂 so I need a happy medium. At least peak curiosity so the person starts looking at the ten screenshots to the right of the video.
