Building a gamified learning app - How would you design the 'perfect' learning experience?

Hi everyone! I'm developing an Android app that turns learning into an interactive game - whether it's coding, languages, or any new subject. Think Duolingo meets RPG, but more flexible for different subjects.

Core features I'm planning: - Progressive difficulty levels for each topic - Real-world examples and practical applications - Interactive quizzes with immediate feedback - Global leaderboard system

What I'd love to know from you: 1. What makes learning "stick" for you? 2. What gaming elements have you found most motivating in educational apps? (Streaks? Achievements? Social features?) 3. For those who've used apps like Duolingo/Codecademy - what do you wish they did differently? 4. How important is real-world application vs. theoretical knowledge in your learning journey?

I believe learning becomes more effective when it's broken down into manageable chunks with constant feedback and practical application. But I'd love to hear your learning approaches and what would make you excited to open a learning app daily.

Edit: I'm particularly interested in hearing from both educators and self-learners!"
