7taps

Came for the novelty, stayed for the endless possibilites

Kommentare: As a designer and copywriter, I've been using 7taps to create mini "pitch" style decks, which is a mobile-friendly alternative to the traditional Powerpoint-style slide decks and allows me to send ideas or prototypes to people via text, email, or QR code. And, what's really great is they don't need to download any apps or login, it's just instantly available on their phone in a really easy-to-use format.

Vorteile:

Frankly, I've never experienced anything like this before. I'm in awe of how simple and easy the product is and yet how many hundreds of potential use cases it has. As someone who has had to sit at a desktop (manufactured cerca 1994) and click through 1,782 jejune lessons, 7taps is the opposite in every way. It is offering the future of employee training —with an experience that's familiar, fun, and actually makes me WANT to learn. Plus, it's so much more than just microlearning for training purposes —you can use it for ANY kind of instruction (ikea should really get on board here —scan a QR code on your HEMNES storage unit and forget about that 17-page stick figure instruction manual— yes, please).

Nachteile:

Honestly, at the rate the 7taps team is developing and shipping new features, I'm sure whatever I thought of to write here would be outdated in a matter of weeks (if not days). Every time I log in, I'm impressed by the new features they've added.

It kills your to-do list!

Kommentare: Familiar with a long to-do list? I bet you are) Well, I have a number of them - nicely titled, neatly written down, comfortably seated collecting dust in my diary. One is privileged to occupy more pages than the others though, and … counting. This is not surprising actually, as being a language teacher you keep coming up with those crazy ideas every single minute.
So, another day I had another great idea of mine about…. a notoriously exciting German grammar rule. And that was the moment when everything fell into place – some spare time, a burning desire to share my idea with my students, and (a drum roll) a tool, that I’ve been hearing about quite a lot lately. 7taps.
So I had a dull group of German verbs and a made-up story behind them. And I opened 7 taps…
Little could I imagine, what an amazing time I will have.
I wanted a beautiful wrapper – 7 taps preset themes helped me out
I wanted to sparkle an otherwise dry grammar rule with some humor - gifs did it
I wanted to add a personal touch, bringing some people into it - here comes a friendly team of Al speakers
Every my wish was generously granted and here I am with a nice course that makes my students’ lives a little bit easier and with a lot of other ideas ready to travel from my waiting list to that magical world of 7 taps.
Does 7 taps make a difference? It definitely does! And it does it in a highly professional, extremely friendly, and incredibly beautiful way!

Vorteile:

Super easy to use, intuitively understandable with a well-thought-out concept of micro-learning behind it, and simply beauuutiful! And when you know how much effort, enthusiasm, and talent is behind it - you can't but applaud the team!

Nachteile:

so far everything is just flawless) Keep it up!

Highly recommended to use for trainings

Vorteile:

I love the design of the slides and the soft combination of different colours. There are optional slides such as adding the audio, multiple-choice type of tests (you can use for surveys sometimes), Articifical video avatar. I love the way how artificial speaker speaks. She is like a real human. You just need to learn how to enter the speech with pauses. For this, [SENSITIVE CONTENT] has created a tutorial about it which I found profoundly useful. The program also has a bunch of free GIFs. (: They also provide QR access codes to the course. I got very excited when 7tpas announced that they're working on adding closed captions to the video and audio to make the content accessible to everyone. (:

Nachteile:

7taps is a start-up software developer. I have to confess that they've been developing their product very fast and taking users' feedback seriously. There are so many features that are available now, but they were not there a couple of months ago.

Share knowledge and be part of a beautiful community

Kommentare: By using the Pro version, I wanted to take this tool to another level, with my own illustrated cards. 7taps is a different application and invites us to be ourselves and unique.

Vorteile:

With 7taps I found an innovative way to create courses. It is as easy and fun to use as playing a game while you invest time in an application that makes you a fun, helpful creator. The design is very intuitive, and communication features are expressive, making it send your point across with fewer words. In addition to creating courses to share your knowledge, you can get deeper into the subject by teaching others directly to the point without wordiness.

Nachteile:

My least favorite is the text formatting. I understand that 7taps is for creating fast microlearning. However, my suggestion, especially for the pro version, is that you can only edit the text but not edit the text size. Also, it has minimal word formatting for aligning text (center, top, middle, or wherever the creator finds suitable). Additionally, a suggestion would be to add a limit word count feature to force yourself to write a course to the point, which is one of the main features of 7taps; less is more. The price is a little expensive; a suggestion would be to have a mid-tier subscription or À la carte features that more advanced users would use.

7taps: The perfect choice for international development projects.

Kommentare: Our team is developing e-training in trauma-sensitive interviewing techniques for law enforcement agencies and border security in Central Asia. The 7taps has filled a vital gap in the training cycle for us; that is, a post-instructional micro-lesson that can be conducted weeks or months after the initial training, or even immediately prior to an interview. We are using the Pro version which let us import images and GIFs more appropriate to our cultural context.

Vorteile:

Our team was looking for a microlearning app that could be used by learners with diverse cultures and languages and working in remote locations. The 7Taps app lets us reinforce the microlearning lesson with universally recognized icons or GIFs that are situated in immediate proximity to the text. Furthermore, with a simple click of a link the learner is able to access the lesson; bypassing the cumbersome need to log into a Learning Management System. This is a great learning solution for resource-poor environments!

Nachteile:

The Pro version contains all the features we need at this time.
