Description

  • There's no way to select all in the code editor, so I'm forced to hold the backspace key to remove the default code.
  • There's no way I can find to select a block of text (I would usually do this by tapping and holding, then dragging handles).
  • After typing something, backspace sometimes seems to do nothing.
  • If I expand the right side to see the output or errors, there's no way I can find to go back to the code again.

I'm on Android.
