- For mobile telephones as well as tablets.- For the best experience, the application requires WiFi.- Audio explanations are in English.- The design of the Android app is sligthly different from the iOS. The functionality and the content are identical.- 1500 iOS and Android applications have been sold to Aikido practitioners in close to 70 different countries.- The Android app was new on the market from March 15th 2013.
The videos are upgraded from time to time. In June 2014 as many as 38 videos were replaced. Among these were the explanations of the four modes (Basic, Flowing Tenkan, Flowing Tenshin and Advanced), as well as the in-depth explanation of Kotegaeshi and several of the flowing (Tenshin) techniques from Yokomen uchi and Shomen uchi. In this way the Aikido Guide is improved without the need of making new versions of the application itself.
