Skill Addicts – Play & Learn

Super great app! All of the tutorials are super clear and to the point. Everyone on the app is super kind and helpful. 5 stars!

Don’t let your kids download this app unless you’re ok with people being rude and disrespectful to them one sided community bad influence try yo tricks app way better

Layout is a great way to learn tricks with a generally positive and engaged community. It's too bad there are so many forced, Fullscreen, unskippable ads that poison the experience. It's one thing to offer ads as an optional avenue for extra pills, etc. It's much worse to force fullscreen ads that can't be immediately skipped or closed.

Community based approval and feedback on truck submissions is such a powerful tool to make sure I am doing the tricks right. The pills earning physical rewards is also just awesome, I hope to make it to the black plastic yoyo soon, or perhaps the spin top since I don’t have one. Great community as well, once you get used to constant constructive criticism 😅 also nice that it’s gotten me core comfortable in front of the camera! Definitely room for improvement, having some ad issues, comment editing would be nice, the chat rooms are a little basic, but overall, the skill toy community is blessed to have such an app.

Great community and good people on Skill Addicts to help with anything yo-yo related, such as yo-yo issues, response pad trouble, responsive and unresponsive tips, questions with tricks or string configuration, and recommendations for yo-yos they may have, thrown, and what they like, different styles, etc. Over 1,000 tutorials for yoyo tricks for all styles, 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A, and 5A. And, you can complete tricks to earn app currency (pills) to be able to earn/“buy” pretty cool stuff, even a Bimetal Yoyo!!! This app and the people have motivated me to complete and work on so many tricks and styles I never thought I would be throwing!!! Super fun!!

I have been using this app for a couple weeks now and I have nothing but love for it. The tutorials are great, the community is awesome. The best part is the judging method. In order to complete a trick, you upload a video of it (awkward at first, but you get used to it) If there is anything wrong with the trick, you don’t pass, and the judges tell you why so you can improve, practice, and try again! There is plenty of hand holding, but absolutely no participation awards. I love it! PS you slowly gain “pills” as credits to use as you progress (FOR FREE) these credits can be used for real world items, just pay shipping. Strings, yoyos (including a beautiful Bi-Metal) and clothes PPS more skill toys are coming with juggling coming VERY soon, I am excited to see this app get even better

Do not download this app because the people on it are toxic and it is not good for unresponsive yo-yos if you are advanced at yoyoing download something like YoTricks?

I’ve played with a yoyo off and a for most of my life. I have learned more tricks and had more fun with a yoyo in the last seven months than I ever have before. Tricks start easy and move to very, very complex ones. New tricks are voted up or down as they are posted. This helps in learning. If you have a trick down voted, you can ask your peers how to improve. There are various chat categories. I have found these to be fun to join in on and I’ve seen yoyo recommendation that will guide the purchase of future yo-yos. I like this app a lot. I’m on it almost every day and I’m Yo-yoing almost every day, too.

Its a good app but it won’t let me just take the 5 pills after I unlock an achievement, and when I try to take the double pills, it says “failed to load ad” but I’m connected to WiFi please change this. Thank you.

Like it just wish the judging system is better… like for the videos with MORE than 5 disapproves should be rejected. There’s admins that abuse power and misjudge just to get xp and promotes this type of judging. Admins don’t promote the tutorials so, you have people not watching them to do the tricks right.
