[Android] [web interface] Kana repetition when typing with alternative keyboard

[pakupaku]

Hi

I’m regularly using wanikani on my phone, in the web browser (firefox/fennec).
I’ve recently switched phone, and now when typing something some kanas repeat themselves, e.g., しゅうでん becomes しゅしゅうでん.

If I type slowly it does not happen.
If I use the Gboard keyboard it does not happen (but it happens with all the alternative keyboards I tried: AnySoftKeyboard, Hacker’s keyboard, OpenBoard).

This problem was already discussed in these old topics:

Hi I’ve changed phones recently (different OS, different browser). I usually did my daily routine of reviews on my iPhone. Since I switched to a OnePlus, I’ve noticed a bug when typing kanji readings. When writing in rōmaji, wanikani always transforms the syllables in the correct hiragana. But now it duplicates the first syllable when I try to type the secone one. It’s difficult to explain so I recorded a video. https://streamable.com/sb1is4 Any ideas why that happens ?

Problem with firefox on mobile

Hey, since a recent update on firefox on android, I’ve been having issues with certain words on wanikani. When I answer a word that uses っ it repeats the kana that comes after it. For example, when I enter 格好 it will appear as かっここう and I have to delete the extra こ. This does not happen when using the ime input typing normal Japanese in the browser. It also does not happen when there is no character following the doubled consonant, for example 夫 comes out as おっと. But this is consistent and happ…

I could use a third app (people mention Flaming Durtles works fine), the Gboard keyboard, or type directly the kanas.

However, my question is how to debug/fix this problem for alternative keyboards? Is it something that should be fixed on wanikani side, or is it something that should be fixed on the alternative keyboards side?

Try going to https://wanakana.com and see if you have the same problem in their demo typing box. That should help narrow down where the problem is.

I didn’t see the demo typing box. Thank you. I do not have the problem there, so it seems like a wanikani problem.

I also ran into the issue today. I’m using a tablet+keyboard to type.

I was able to fix it by installing g-board and setting it as my default keyboard on my android tablet.

Hope this helps.
