User Reviews

This would be a five star app were it not for the soft back button. It is a necessary GUI element, but its execution breaks the app, or at least causes me to be constantly working around it.. First, there is no reason it should be so huge. Make it small! Second, it overlays the first lines of text. When coding, we must make space for the button or otherwise we create untouchable code at the beginning. When running programs, I often have no idea what they say on their first line because it is under that button. Make the button small and move it out of the text area. If you need it huge, make the text screen begin under it. Something else that might be nice is an invisible ESC "area".
