performance_and_bugscross_platform_consistencyupdates_and_maintenanceHey there! I absolutely love this app but there’s a HUGE bug that’s just now interrupting me. I got this app yesterday and the “say message” block was working perfectly fine. Along with every other block that allows you to edit with text. But today it’s acting up. Yesterday it did this once or twice but now it’s doing it constantly! The screen keeps on going to the bottom-left hand of my screen (And yes I’m on an iPod touch 7th generation.) and can’t get back to it without exiting out of the app and going back to my mod (oh and I forgot to mention this I was making a Minecraft mod.) but when I try it again it the glitch happens again. I try repeating the process again but the glitch seems to follow in the process over and over again. Is this something y’all would have to fix in an update or is there someway for me to fix it myself? If so than could I have some instructions on how to do so?

cross_platform_consistencysocial_and_communityI'm a really great coder and stuff. But, there are a few things I hate about it! One: my projects are now taking for ever to be reviewed! What is up with that! It's been taking MONTHS for my good quality projects to come in! Two: I posted a game on my laptop which would've gotten featured. But no. Instead it got rejected! There are vampires, and the mention of blood. But no violence or anything bad! And further more, I saw it got rejected on the TYNKER APP! I was using my laptop. Plus, there were no rules against my game. This proves my point that Tynker is treating their viewers like babies! On Scratch, everyone would’ve loved it! Three: make the site a bit more for older kids! I mean, why do you even have a monster for a mascot! Adding to this review, a lot of the games here (excuse my French) ARE GARBAGE! I also use scratch, so I know the huge difference between Tynker and Scratch. On scratch, most of the community projects are more advanced and fun to play! Most of the games I see on Tynker are…Not that good. So in conclusion, this is NOT worth your money! You can easily get on a better coding platform for free! But you choose to go here. Dat is all. 💄❤️ ouuuuutttt.

accessibilityupdates_and_maintenanceI tried unliking a project, that didn’t work! You should remove the projects that say “This project contains features which aren’t supported by the version of the app.” so people don’t get confused. I accidentally liked one. So there’s this user called Stella, and almost all of their posts are taken down! I am not very happy because of the community! This app needs recommendations! Oh! There is a kinda good coder here called Purple Cheeto and I like almost all of their projects! And when I search “learn” I only see projects that have “Baldi” and I do not know that! Okay, I recommend Kodable. Because you make you own little mazes. And the “set easing to” block is too hard! This app is too hard, but I like it (Not too much).
