Excellent Swift tutorial but needs improvement – TapCoding Review

First, the excellent part. In my opinion this is one of the best language tutorials (not just Swift) I've come across. The pace, organization, and clarity of explanations are unmatched. The app gets its name, TapCoding, from the many one-line code snippets the user is asked to fill to cement concepts. These are filled by tapping on keywords chosen from a limited set. It is a much better approach than having to type the lines since the objective is to learn Swift, not typing. It is also what makes the app fun to use. But most of all I am impressed by how Swift is taught: the pace of the tutorial, the clear and logical way the topics are introduced, how the author anticipated my questions as I read along. The only serious objection I have is the app navigation. The app forces you to type code segments in order to advance through lessons. These are major irritants which should be allowed to be skipped. Apparently the developer is addressing this issue, but I’m still waiting ... till then it’s three stars. Enough said. Give this app a spin. You won regret it.
