Yes I can confirm this on my iPhone 6 Plus.

iPhone 8 ios 12. Simply changing the code so the comment section doesn't go to type mode until you intentionally click on it would help. But the section is rather large, and the iPhone zooms in awkwardly when you start to type making matters worse. Just constructive criticism!

Yeah - i noticed that as well. It does seem to zoom awkward and not quite centered. Amin will see this and look into it i'm sure

It's better now. No zooming and a full screen button to use all the space on your screen.

Hi Dj,

How about adding, to the Shortcut list, a link to an Index of all The Robot Program episodes? It would be nice to be able to easily find certain programs quickly, rather than scrolling thru. If the title is unknown, scrolling thru all of them is the only way to find the one wanted. If listed by episode, it would be easy to update.

I work with 2 students doing STEM projects who would benefit from such a list.

Let me know if there is an easy way already in place, and I just missed it.

The ezrobot robot program episodes are for ezrobot products and not related with DIY. To Access the robot program episode for your ezrovot product, visit www.ez-robot.com and select the learn section and your product.

Think of it this way... you don’t visit Microsoft’s forum to ask how to use adobe photoshop. Instead, you visit adobe’s website to learn their product. Think of ARC as being windows and ezrobot as being adobe.

There’s a number of other hardware products being supported and you will use the manual of their website.

Ron and DJ bring up good points on this.  So the primary communication method with EZ-Robot we all had was this community which got ported over to Synthiam (which is awesome) but back at the sister (or mother) company EZ-Robot how would a customer like Ron offer that feedback on the Robot Program?  Because I just went to the community link there and my options are to either come here to Synthiam or engage for technical assistance with an EZ-Robot product, from that stand point...I would conclude here at Synthiam is still a good place to communicate "community" and "general" EZ-Robot chat.

I do understand what you are saying and promoting with the separation DJ and I probably can't under many of the nuance related to that, but I understand you'd be pointing out my conclusion is wrong - I just wanted to share my own confusion on it too.

It's simple - the previous forum was never a way to communicate to the education arm of ez-robot, so i'm not sure why anyone would ask about education questions on here now. Use the ez-robot Contact Us page if you wish to contact EZ-Robot regarding their product or education content. Otherwise, use synthiam for your DIY and robot programming software. Never has the previous forum had anything to do with The Robot Program episodes or education or teaching. The previous forum was entirely DIY but buried in the back of an education company website.

EZ-Robot is an education company that sells robots to schools to teach students. If you wish to contact EZ-Robot, use the Contact Us on www.ez-robot.com. The old forum was all of you DIY makers buried in the back of an education product company website.

Synthiam is for us, the hackers and makers of the DIY community with ARC. Synthiam Inc. is actually the parent company.
