I also came across this but I think this is in part because the reviews are loaded in a webview and are not native.
Hopefully when they have the native implementation we will be able to have two separate settings for browser and app visualization.

Iāve been waiting for a native app for so long. 
Bunpro has done amazing work the last few months, I canāt believe how much has changed!!
All that said, could I please get access to the Android app? Thanks

This is awesome, nice work BunPro team!
I canāt wait for the more polished version(s) in the next couple of months.
And I would also give a +1 to the others asking for a dark mode. Iām so used to it on all of my other apps on my phone.

Would it be okay for me to try the Android App? I would love to practice while on break at work.

I was having an odd behavior when I switch between the tabs, it seems like the grammar tab animation is only programmed to go in one direction so it is a bit jarring when you go from the search to the grammar tab.
Also I got blank text boxes like you see above

Yeah, it happens on switch from search to dashboard. We have it fixed for the next patch

To be honestly I personally think the web wrapper approach to app design is an awful experience, and has an unignorable fatal flaw. I thought that this was going to be a fundamentally new design, and in terms of the dashboard UI it is, but when I load reviews I just get pulled into a modified web view.
I understand why as it allows you to work on the mechanics of the back separately and universally for all platforms. Mostly this would be a good thing. But again this was my complaint with the previous app and why I never used it.
Two things font/veiw scaling and input method
If my phone interprets the app as a web veiw it make it so hard to have a font size that works right. By that I mean is readable, Doesnāt require scrolling and allows me to learn rather than focus on UX.
This pairs with the other flaw of Bunpro which is Input. If I cannot use my Japanese keyboard on my phone when learning Japanese, really what is the point. In every other context when I use Japanese on my phone I use that keyboard. Typing Japanese in romaji on the phone Is fundamentally counterintuitive and there is a reason why Japanese people donāt do it.
I know the counter arguments, auto suggest will spoil you, Kanji input is hard to parse, etcā¦ it doesnāt matter if after one review I am frustrated with the experience and give up.
I hope this taken well, but I just need to let you know this before you go on ahead making an app that is broken in design.
I love Bunpro, I support the team wholly, I have evangelized for you since I signed up 4 years ago. This is a great community. I donāt want you waste your time to make a mediocre app, when honestly just using the browser is 99% the same and more convenient.

Hey @Sidgr , thank you for the comments!
Donāt worry about the web wrapper. We agree itās hardly ideal, and itās not worth wasting our and everyoneās time when (like you correctly pointed out) you can just use your browser.
Right now itās just acting as a stopgap. It WILL be replaced by a native in-app review system that makes the most of that environment. You can check out the Roadmap at the end of the post for more details!
We just wanted to get the Alpha out there as quickly as possible to quickly get feedback, iterate and improve as the rest of Bunpro is built. ę°ć«ććŖćć§ļ¼

On the iOS version, I donāt get badge notifications appearing unless I go into the app and manually refresh my review count, which sort of defeats the purpose of badge notifications. Not sure if this is a shortcoming of TestFlight, or if itās something Iām doing, orā¦?

The app on iPad is looking great !!! I wasnāt expected something that great for an alpha on a bigger screen.
I downloaded the app on iOS but only used the iPadOS version for now, because ā¦ bigger screen, always there with me etc. I donāt know if the app is available on Mac ARM (some TestFlight iPadOS app can be used on mac because itās the same architecture), I will try one day and keep you in touch if thereās any issue on desktop (just for the fun/test, a desktop app probably isnāt your priority).
Feedback
Small suggestion : Is it possible to enable Scribble ? (Scribble = the ability to write text using the Apple Pencil). I really would love to be able to juste write like a paper, writing manually helps me a lot when memorizing stuff 
Edit
Ok, itās just a web wrapper xD Not a native app, thatās why Scribble is not working ā¦ Itās not a hybrid app or native app using the default text field, but generated with JavaScript instead

Hey!
At the moment only reviews are not native, and we plan to add native implementation within few months

@jrmr50 would you mind giving me a bit more detail about the mute button? whatās it for, why do you feel like you need it? Iād like to pick your brain on it a bit!
@JCalandr I also use Bunpro on my iPad too! Itās really comfy. And donāt worry, tablet-specific responsiveness IS on the talks, so itāll look even better. As for Scribble, it canāt be enabled for Japanese as Apple is yet to officially support it. You can write romaji, though itās a bit weird.

Itās normally when Iām doing SRS in bed last thing or first thing, when the house is silent, everything sounds super loud. On Flaming duties thereās a big bell icon at the top I can press to mute the app, but itās presence there is a reminder to use it. Then Iāll switch to bunpro and hurriedly have to turn down the volume when the first answer is blurted out at max volume.
