Trouble with a particular stroke

hey :) i really like this app so far. my ability to write and recall kanji has increased a lot and it's given me a boost in motivation to keep learning japanese again

however there is one slight frustration i've been having with a particular kind of stroke ^^' the ム stroke in the following images appears to be strangely unforgiving, and i feel like it might be a bug, especially since for one of them i was completely in the line

i do have the stroke accuracy set to "strict". i don't know if that makes a difference since i haven't tried the other ones, but i think even for the strict setting it's a bit unfair since i often get away with being much less accurate with other strokes

sorry, those links seem to be broken. this should work:IMG_4772.pngIMG_4774.pngIMG_4775.pngIMG_4783.png

Thanks for the report! I will look into this after the Maui upgrade.  In the meanwhile, please try a less strict stroke accuracy.

I have the same issue with 弁. I'm using "normal" drawing leniency and it is extremely picky on where you start drawing the ム and its angle of descent.

See screenshot below of "normal" leniency.

I have normal leniency and have the same issue. It seems the app recognizes the stroke ending when doing the direction change. It also happens with the first two strokes in 糸 especially when a component, the second stroke in 水 as a component etc. Essentially any stroke that makes a triangle like direction change. Maybe some sort of stroke release fuzzing is needed. I've noticed it more since upgrading phone to one plus 12 (android). Even easier to implement would be the ability to mark Kanji that have been graded wrong as correct if you are confident you knew it. Only having bury is too restrictive especially if it's a more recently learned Kanji.
