Ingrid — Casual Player (Accessibility Focus)
Tier: Free Platform: Android (Galaxy A14 — budget device) Word focus: 2-letter words Accessibility: Reduced motor dexterity, 130% system font scaling, older adult
Background
Ingrid is a retired teacher in her late 60s who picked up Scrabble to keep her mind sharp. She navigates carefully, reads every label twice, and appreciates large touch targets. She gets a quiet thrill from the confetti animation when she hits 80% accuracy on a session — she mentioned it to her daughter.
How She Uses the App
Ingrid uses a Galaxy A14 — the app loads a beat slower than on flagship devices but she doesn't mind the wait. She drills 2-letter words only, recognition mode, sessions of exactly 5 minutes — "short and sweet keeps me coming back." She has 34% overall mastery and a 15-day streak (her longest). She uses 130% system font scaling.
She has earned the confetti celebration screen twice — both times on 2-letter drills with 85% accuracy.
Accessibility Note
Ingrid relies on large touch targets (48dp minimum) and text that scales with her system font without truncation or overflow. The Galaxy A14 tests that the app performs acceptably on budget hardware with limited RAM.
What She Values
- Large, legible text and touch targets that don't require precision tapping
- Performance on budget hardware — the app doesn't crash or lag
- Short sessions with a satisfying completion moment (confetti)
- A non-intimidating entry point (2-letter words only is a valid way to use the app)
