I love the idea, but at least on android the text scrolls backwards as some people have already noticed. Also, my keyboard thinks that wrvy word needs to be capitalized for some reason so I'm typing backwards all caps. And with he no editing, if it was set up in a way that let my phone at least autocorrect my typos, I think that would go a long way to making this more usable.

But kudos for getting something out there, and I'm really excited to get to use it on my laptop where I'm sure it works better.

Yeah, I apologize for the Android bugs. I’d mostly intended for it to be a desktop app, and tested it on Linux and Mac, then did a couple mobile additions and tested it on iOS. I didn’t expect that Android would behave so much differently, particularly since it’s all in a browser, so that was pretty naive.

I’ve downloaded Android Studio for testing, so I’ll get to work figuring out where the bug is coming from.
