Where is the Hebrew Alphabet Tutor in the Mobile App?

I love Hebrew, but my knowledge is scant. Logos has a great program called "Hebrew Alphabet Tutor" which I started using on my laptop.  However, I have a Mac iPad Pro with an iPencil (or whatever you call it). I wanted to use my iPad to write the letters with a pencil, but evidently Hebrew Alphabet Tutor is not available for Mobile anything! How is this? Why is this? Crying

Please help me understand and then please fix this.  What's the point of being able to write it if you can't on a laptop?

    A lot of desktop features are not available on mobile and the Alphabet Tutor is one of them.

    Sorry about this but it would need Faithlife to add support for this functionality  and I haven’t seen any previous discussion about it

    Mobile browser option is using Web App => https://app.logos.com/books/INTERACTIVE%3AHEBREW-ALPHABET-TUTOR

    I tried the web app on the mobile browser, but unfortunately using a pen with it doesn't work because the browser window moves and doesn't allow me to write the letter.

    I think Logos needs to make Hebrew & Greek Alphabet Tutor usable on mobile apps because the functionality to write the letter is worthless unless there is a laptop which allows one to "write" on the screen. I only use Mac so it's a moot point.  The sooner they can do this the better. :)

    I agree. It would make a lot more sense to be able to practice with the pencil on an iPad since that would be the same way we would write on paper. Using my computer or a web browser seems to require using the mouse to draw the letters which does not translate to handwriting nearly as well. I know it has been over four years since the original post but I am still looking for this improvement.

    I have a workaround (not a full solution). If you have both an iPad and a Macbook, you can use Sidecar and extend the display of the Macbook onto the iPad. At that point, you can use a Pencil to use the handwriting practice. It is quite picky on that front even when using a stylus (though the width of the brush is enough that knowing for sure why it rates you at 80% vs. 90%, etc. is often difficult—less than 80% seems more evident).

    Andrew Hollingsworth, you are a genius! That works 100%. Problem solved. Of course it would be better if the Hebrew Alphabet Tutor was on the mobile app, but this does work. Thanks very much. God bless you.
