Thank you for your feedback.

As I mentioned, I am maintaining a compatible version for iOS which as 
far as I know is the most widespread mobile platform. It is free 
software with the code available at https://github.com/phedlund/iWordQuiz.

I have been involved in discussions to bring something to Android, but 
nothing concrete yet. Is a usable Qt available yet? Will Plasma Active 
run on Android? How do you decide which of the myriad of devices and 
system versions to support?

Are there other viable mobile platforms worth the effort considering 
that I have very limited time and other resources available?

Besides, I have never considered (K)WordQuiz to be a program for kids. 
My target has been middle/high school and above as I believe building 
(typing) your own vocabularies to be an important part of the learning 
process. Shared vocabularies have never been a big hit for KDE either 
further showing (I think) that user needs are very individual.

Thanks,
Peter
