Two much appreciated improvements in latest app update
Usually watch WBaduk games on my phone quite a lot but hadn't been just recently so not sure how long this update's been out. Two things immediately noticeable are 1: when accessing problems from their tsumego collections the board (13x13) now expands to take up all the available space on the screen - used to be that it remained confined to 19x19 parameters so only made use of fraction of available space (making the positions a little blurry with out my reading glasses on) and B: when observed games finish it used to be that the result pop-up would only be visible for a few seconds immediately after the game finished (kind of frustrating if you happen to be away at that moment) but now it remains visible until you close it yourself. Nice. Have really enjoyed WBaduk's problems since discovering them some years ago and being able to have usable access to them on my phone is a going to be great!

Re: Two much appreciated improvements in latest app update
It wasn't constrained by 19x19 board size, but by resolution. Your screen was too accurate for their background board image. My phones QWXGA made it practically impossible to do the tsumegos because they covered only 1/4 of the screen space or so, on 5.5" device. Good luck trying to hit any goodinate on that. But indeed this problem is now in the past.
