iPhone app suggested improvements

December 14, 2011 at 08:42 AM posted in ChinesePod Mobile AppsI posted the first part of this last night but it doesn't seem to show up for some reason, apologies for the repeat but I've added some.
First suggestion : add previous/next buttons around the Download/Play link at the top of Dialogue Sentence pages in self-study mode. Reason being that swiping with the thumb while holding the phone with one hand is sometimes tricky (needs a perfectly horizontal gesture).
Second suggestion : add an option to automatically download the current sentence / vocabulary entry upon loading the page. This would avoid repeatedly clicking on Download - no big deal, just helps concentrating on the lesson rather than the user interface.
These are based on daily use over the past few weeks, which I really enjoy, although sometimes I wished font-size was a wee bit larger.
Last point : I tried posting in this group from my iPhone, it was a real nightmare to get the cursor into this text box.
