Good day. This is a small inconvenience I ran into. I write my novel chapters on my phone and as such my layout of the page is different from PC users. First thing I noticed is that the edges of the box (The little box in which you click/tap to start writing) overlaps with my text. It is not a big problem, but I have to navigate with my fingers to see what I typed in. Next would be the fact that, for some reason, the input of letters starts to lag and slow down, often autocorrecting into wrong words. I have checked and it seems that this only happens on Scribble Hub and other sites are ok. Oh, and my phone speed is just fine. I have gotten by this problem by saving what I wrote in draft form. For some reason this resets typing speed and lag for a while until I have to do it again. And last but not least will be the placement of upload and save buttons. Those two are placed so closely together that my fingers start to shake each time I have to press them. And my worst fears came through when I uploaded an unfinished chapter on accident. I was panicking. I didn't have a copy of my text. Fortunately I was able to return back to my old draft and delete the faulty problem. The buttons don't seem to register my fingers well. I had to tap around save for ages until it decided to act. On the other hand, upload needs only one tap and it does its job. The site is alright for me since I am patient but I wanted to notify you.
Thank you for your time.

I addressed similar problem in this thread. https://forum.scribblehub.com/threads/the-box-thingy.221/
you can look up to it if you want. Alhough he still haven't replied. I am waiting.

That editor (tinymce) or the version I'm using seems to be really buggy for mobile users so I'm currently in the middle of replacing it with a new one for mobile users only. it should be live in 2-3 days. Thanks!

Okay, I switched the mobile editor. Please let me know if it's working better for you.
The border is gone and the box expands as I type (noice). It seems that the save responds well to my fingers. Not sure about the lag as I have to type some 300 words for it to pop up. Thank you, Tony.
