I have the exact same thing. The review counter seems to accumulate some random collection of reviews over time, and doesn’t change when I have finished my reviews. The actual review counter during the reviews is always lower than the review counter on the main screen.
Furthermore, the loading screen can sometimes be loading for 1 minute at times, although this appears to be decreasing?

I’m having problems with the IME on the app. I’m using my english keyboard and letting the app convert it into hiragana, but because my keyboard automatically capitalises the first letter of a new sentence, it is putting the first character into katakana! Having to uncapitalise it each time before I type is really annoying. I don’t have this problem with either the wanikani or torii apps so presume this is fairly easy to fix?

Wanikani has a built-in IME that ignores capital letters, so that’s why it doesn’t do it there.
My solution a while ago was Swiftkey, which is an in my opinion much more superior keyboard than the standard google solution. One of its nifty features is disabling auto capitalization, but a much more useful function in this case is the fact that you can easily switch between English and Japanese by swiping the space bar. When you start your review, simply swipe to a Japanese keyboard, and you’ll just be writing hiragana with your QWERTY keyboard.

In the last few days the app has been behaving super weirdly. Everytime I press a word to make the furigana appear, the page automatically jumps back to the top, forcing me to scroll down to the sentence I was reading again… Super weird. Thought it might have been temporary but has been happening every single time for about a week now so thought I should report it

I already use swiftkey, and have it set up with both english and japanese keyboards. Having to turn auto-capitalisation off before I do my reviews and then turn it back on again afterwards is a complete pain. If I use the japanese keyboard then it remembers what I have written previously and so effectively completes all the ghost reviews for me without me having to actually know them.

Ah, I didn’t actually think of the autocomplete, good point.

also same problem with the android app, review count does not match which unfortunately makes it unusable

Same problem here with the incorrect review counts.
And also typing and then deleting what you typed often results in the underscore in the review sentence shrinking/disappearing (though typing still pushes the area back out).

Speaking as an ignorant iOS user, can you run the Jisho script on Android? I see you suggested it and @Kumi wrote it so I have to say this is by far the most useful script (big thanks to you both! 
)
Edit: Not to bomb the Android thread with iOS related requests but it would be great just to have this as a native function for all (i think we all use it plenty). Plus this is some much wasted space on this platform.
I was asking for larger fonts but my new dream is this

On Android you can use Firefox and I think it was Violentmonkey to install scripts

Firefox never worked for me with any scripts, but Yandex browser is compatible with most chrome add-ons and also Tampermonkey. So you can use most user scripts on Android as well.
Btw. I’m using the Takoboto app together with the Jisho script. I changed the link so that the Jisho button will open the sentence in Takoboto, which is faster and has the in-built “send to AnkiDroid” feature to create cards on click.

Since this isn’t a paid android app and it seems @zessirb has gotten caught up in other things going on in their life, perhaps it would be a nice idea for them to put the project up on Github so other programmers in the community can contribute improvements to it? It’s been many months now and not even a response about what’s going on :S

That is definitely something we can consider. I need to release a new API version and better docs before that can happen though :-s

This is a great idea BTW, can’t believe I never utilized this until today. I just changed the link so mine goes to my Kitsun’s Jisho page for the same feature, super easy.

That’s great to hear at least, I hope you do!
I would say not to feel too much pressure to have some quality documentation or worries about people wasting time on an old API in regards to opening up the source to this app. It’s not like it would be hundreds of people potentially contributing to the code for it to be a big issue, just a handful of resourceful people like myself who don’t mind lack of documentation or having to update things to a newer API later.
Not to mention it’s mainly minor fixes to the existing code people most want right now that would be done and contributors could hold off on any major revisions until you feel documentation and the new API is ready.
Just my two cents, thanks for the consideration!

just wondering is there an option to enable new review notifications or is that feature planned for the future

Yes please. My only hangup over bunpro is the lack of a quality android app. I’d love to fix that myself lol

Just wanted to add my +1. I want to buy a lifetime membership but the Android app is really making me hesitate. Is the app up on Github yet and open for contributions?

私も Bunpro looks to tick all the boxes for me to fix my grammar deficiency except for the offline android (or iOS) ability. However I also recognise that it’s hard adding all these wonderful features when you’ve got no money. I’m testing Bunpro now and if I like it I’ll buy the lifetime subscription in the next week or so.
