Problem.
  1. For mobile app, under sentence view, the current play button is extremely high up and impossible to click with one hand operation on large phones
  2. button being right up there above the text causes covering of text when clicking it. A very serious problem if you want to replay and read several times or read more than 1 sentence per day.
  3. With 1 hand operation we have to do finger gymnastics to press play button while reading. This can lead to serious injuries and frustration. This can cause some humans to become violent, depressed or anxious.
  4. unhappy users equal loss of profits for LingQ.
Solutions
  1. Most player (Audio/video) will have play button at the bottom. It is a natural intuitive position. In this way finger can always stay above the play button without covering any text. One can read and play audio repeatedly without crying in pain and suffering.
  2. Play button at bottom must be an option/setting so user can choose position
  3. Or ideally have option to float the play button so users can place it anywhere on screen.
Bottom or floating play button position will dramatically improve reading speed and speed of learning of language. This will lead to happier language learner, happiness has a multiplier effect on language learning.
All this will eventually lead to better reviews and result in massive profits for LinQ. Higher profit equals higher salaries and bonuses for staff.
