[App Feedback] A few UI changes to improve

  1. Make “backspace” key able to erase several characters while pressed. Now one press deletes one char and you should tap it many times to clear your entire input. Copy the behaviour of system keyboard.
  2. If possible, suppress popping up system virtual keyboard when you tap on words you’ve just input. For example, I make a mistake in the middle of input and want to put a cursor there to correct it — the system keyboard appears and covers a half of the screen so I always tap “back” to close it. Basically, it’s useless until you actually use it as a main way to type your answers. You can make this a setting in the app.
  1. When manually reviewing all words in level, the words’ list always scrolls up to its beginning even if you scrolled to its middle to view a word there. When you go back to the list (system back button or app’s one), put me exactly where I’ve been in the list.

My suggestion would be to not let the app go to the next phrase until the audio plays. It’s natural to feel the urge to review fast, and when the audio is still playing and you’re ignoring it to work in the next phrase you don’t get the full benefit of the audio.

If it stays on the phrase you just entered while the audio is playing, you’ll be focused on the printed phrase and audio at the same time and you’ll get better reinforcement.

@FishSlap, this bug is already submitted, please vote for it to raise Memrise’s awareness.

I wonder if these issues will be fixed in upcoming releases? They don’t seem to be hard to elinimate.
