Writing pad compatible with Cpod?

September 11, 2014, 09:25 AM posted in I Have a QuestionHi!
Might be a stupid question but I've never had a writing/drawing pad and I'm wondering whether one (for example Bamboo A6 or My Note Premium II) would be compatible with Cpod and specifically the built in skritter writing practice for vocabulary? Would be good to know before buying one.
(On a different note it would be great if Cpod could include the skritter vocabulary writing practice in the iOS app rather than just flashcards.)
Thanks!

No problem. If I were you, I would use the Skritter apps for iPad/iPhone, and now Android (beta). The technology was built for fingers, and it's only relatively recently that they have been able to transition from a website onto an excellent app. Try out the trial and see what you think. I learnt almost characters in 3 months just using Skritter each day. (i'll try and find my stats somewhere :)

Regarding the app, that would be cool, and we are definately working on launching a new app at some point.

It guides you on linking Skritter with Chinesepod, so you can study all your ChinesePod vocab on the amazing Skritter iOS app, or website. That way you don't need a writing tablet. Just use your finger.
