Distracting Input Shake in Next Question After Error

This appears to be a new behavior within the last day or two. When I get an answer wrong in a review, after I hit Enter to move on to the next question, the grayed out text in the input box for reading or meaning in the new question shakes side-to-side. This is distracting and annoying and I wish I could turn it off.

Distracting…yes

When it happens…not sure, but it just happened to me and my answer was correct!

I just did a ~60 item review set and I saw it on the question after every wrong answer. Either way, I’m not sure what shaking the input text field is supposed to be for – if it was the previous error, that seems no longer relevant, and if not, then I’m just baffled…

That sounds motion sickness inducing. I was trying to replicate but couldn’t get it to happen. Would you write in to hello@wanikani.com with browser info and OS, along with an explanation of what’s happening?

It’s just the textbox that shakes so at least for me it’s ā€œonlyā€ distracting, though still un-fun.

I did send a message to hello@ and have replied to their followup with some more info.

Very unfun with a lot of reviews 0_0

Thanks for sending that in

I just completed a set of reviews and this time I noted that the shake ONLY occurred after a wrong answer! I guess I was mistaken earlier…

I’m glad it’s happening to someone else because I just tried to capture it with a screen recorder (as requested by the wk folks) and failed utterly. So at least I’m not imagining it. Maybe it depends on number of items in the review (only 2 in this one, vs nearly 60 when I saw it earlier).

Managed to capture it in a screen recording:

Though I also just realized it happens more frequently if I hit the button to show the info about the term and then hit enter to move on to the next question.

i’ve got the exact same issue, i feel reasonably confident it started today. i’m using firefox as a browser if that helps narrow things down.

I’m getting the input shake as well. I’m using Firefox on Windows 10.

This seems to only happen to me when I’ve pressed F to see more info on an item, and then I press ā€˜Enter’ to go on to the next item. It’s like it’s applying the ā€˜Enter’ keystroke from before a second time.

Hi all - this should be fixed now. Please let us know if it happens again!
