Android keyboard keeps popping up, continue/skip bar covers bottom answers

These two issues just started this evening:

First of all, whenever I go to type in an answer, my phone’s English keyboard pops up, and I need to close it in order to tap on the Japanese symbols.

Secondly, The Continue/Skip bar now covers the bottom answer buttons unless I scroll down.

Memrise- It is annoying to have to continuously close the keyboard and scroll to tap on the answers, when it worked before. Will it be fixed? Thank you.
