I don't quite understand what is going on with the "spotlight" UI concept - I can click around on the characters and it highlights an area and it also reloads the landscape local to the character that I clicked on, so I can sort of traverse the similarity landscape this way. But I feel like I might be missing some part of the visual metaphor?
Very impressive that I can sketch a character in the top-left and get a close match. That's a real highlight showing that there's more going on under the hood than a big look-up table.
This is cool but the characters are awful small on my iPhone 14 Pro. Decent bit of wasted space too. Why are the characters in the previous history list (on the “rim” so much bigger than the characters I’m actively exploring?
Very cool concept and execution, well done.

I'm not dyslexic, but this is what I imagine dyslexic hell is.
WOW. JUST WOW ‼

That's cool. The sound effects seem like natural thinking sounds. :)
Several models to compare.
Ouch, my back button
Yeah lol
Love this. I hope it works with Japanese kanji too, because sometimes I forget the exact character but remember a similar one.

> visual similarity
> SigLIP 2
Maybe visual-semantic similarity is more appropriate? Nonetheless the design is fantastic

This is quite remarkable. Great work.
WOW! What a lovely way to explore the character map.
Very cool concept and execution.
Reminds me of early 2000's web design with Flash websites. Those were good times.
Oh no they weren't!
Anyone else think of the film 'Hangar 18'; specifically the alien language they find on the UFO?
This tastes delicious. The sound is perfectly restrained and animation is intentional. I wish more apps were as playful as this.
Love the name, very clever
