Typing in editor is slow on iPad/mobile

[Tyller_]

I will have to wait until I can use my phone to show proof, but when typing anywhere on the main CreatiCode website (play.creaticode.com) it is laggy, in that it is slow to type and when I type it delays, like I type an entire sentence into instructions or notes & credits (or typing in a note/block) it takes a long time to type, and it shows the keys I press being pressed over time, I can show a video but when I actually press the key and when it types has a delay, and the faster I type the longer the offset is

TLDR: typing on an iPad on main website has a lag with even the keyboard and it isn’t here on the forums

I have two videos, one of in the editor and another of on the forums to show that it isn’t just me being very slow at typing, it’s quite annoying as I can type “Hello this is a test” in ~4 seconds at most but with the lag it takes ~15-20 seconds to type it all

I am unable to upload the videos right now due to when I try to upload a video to forums it says I do not have enough privilege for this action, I will attempt to upload to YouTube soon and reply/edit to add the links

@tyller_ thx to Luna for suggesting to make them gifs

Looks like you’re using slow internet based on the bars. Also with how much code there is in each block, it’s probably overloading your iPad, and yeah. It shouldn’t be much of a problem for making projects, it’s just an error with your internet.

@luna it isn’t the internet, typing shouldn’t be based on the internet when it’s not actively saving every last thing you type and even then it shouldn’t have lag from when I actually pressed the key and when it darkens/shows that I pressed it

@luna oh sorry, I didn’t see that, I did guess it was that but (I believe) it didn’t lag on scratch so there has to be some optimizations that can be made so it isn’t actively loading it all at once

@tyller_
It’s fine, and I absolutely agree.

Thanks for the feedback.

We can confirm there is a small delay in typing on iPad. We will investigate why that is happening.
