    I've had real trouble typing on this site from my mobile, both before and after the format change. If I try and delete words, the whole sentence re-appears word by word until I'm back at the beginning, then it cuts halfway into the last word. I can't close brackets as the closing bracket deletes the last character, it's become a real pain in the arse, has anybody else encountered any difficulty?

    I've got a Sony Xperia X1, but I'd be interested to know if anybody else has come across this and if there's a way of fixing it?

    I have the iPhone 4S & the only problem I have is when the box is full it carries on writing but the last thing I wrote is not in view, so I have to press return/enter so I can see what I'm writing.

    It's an effin' nightmare for me on an ipod touch. The old app used to be fine, is there a new one?

    Yes, there's a free not606 app which has a lot more functionality than the old one. There's one or two minor issues but I think it's the best way to view and post on a mobile by far.

    Get an iPhone.

    No problems at all, other than the iPhone's new ****ty predictive text system.

    Well I've got an ipod touch and it's exactly the same system and it's **** for me.

    I'll try that new app - cheers PLT.

    If you write a sentence, press done, then realise you've made some blobs you want to correct, you need to do each one separately.

    Press done, point at the error, correct. Press done, repeat.

    Pain in the arse.

    Can I just point out that it's just this site it happens with. There's no way in hell I'm buying an IPhone, I think they're a complete waste of money and more of a fashion accessory than a practicality. They'll be releasing an IPhone 7 this year, so all those who ran out and bought the sixth one will be clamouring for tha, spending money to try and get out of their contracts so they can do an early upgrade. I have an Ipod and a phone, no need for an IPhone.

    How is it cheap and pretend? I've got a work phone who pay for all my calls, I've got my ipod touch for everything else. Done.

    Precisely. I've got a work phone and am on call 24/7, why would I carry 2 phones around all the time?
