Liquid Glass UI: Feedback

[Spyral]

Hi

Just had a quick look at the new UI, looks great!

Two bugs I saw in a flashcard test:

1st there is a visual glitch with a box showing below a box, see picture below.

2nd there box to draw characters is not centered, see below.

Overall, I personally feel like the test screen now has a bit too many different boxes and boxes inside boxes. But that's maybe just my preference.

Overall I think the test screen is much prettier than before, but I was always partial to the 3.0 screen.

The only thing I find to be a bit weird is the floating dictionary entry switcher (the way it partially covers the dictionary entry). But the only alternative I can think of is to either squeeze that menu in at the bottom and move the previous/next/skip buttons to the side like they were in 3.0 (vertically). But maybe either having the dictionary entry stop above that menu or moving the menu so it aligns with the bottom of the entry (instead of 80% alignment) would solve the visual incongruity.

Things I still miss: Being able to reverse the correct/incorrect button order.

One small maybe bug: The back/forward button takes a few seconds to reappear after going back a card and opening the undo card score menu.

One feature request: Allow us to reorder (and disable options) in the undo score menu

Overall, I think the liquid glass UI works really well. Feels natural and inevitable, the way someone said good UI should feel.

Going to add my feedback here, since it's related and I just saw the interface looking different from yours to mine.
Iphone 15 with iOS 27
On the top right, opening the dictionary overlay or enabling the on-screen drawing is hidden away in a dropout menu. As I'm using this very often, the added additional click is a clear downgrade in usability for me. Just saw Spyrals images they appear directly, so I suppose it's the iPhone 15's screen size triggering this. Still hoping they coul be separate for somewhat smaller screens.

Second point, when on-screen drawing is enabled, it's not possible to scroll the definition, so I'd have to click menu, click again the on-screen feature, scroll down, and redo-enable it. Maybe scrolling can be enabled with two finger input, while one finger input draws on the screen.

Otherwise, so far really like the UI update on the flashcard screend (even as a liquid glass contrarian).

Another thing I just noticed, is that the selection bubble in the menu bar is slightly to big and hits the edges of the other menu points. I feel like there should be some space between the bubble and the R of OCR here.
