Mobile editor lacks former options

I can't stand the newer Mobile editor (the one that was changed several months ago). It lacks the necessary options it used to have and which the Desktop version has always had. The format looks sucky too. The Mobile editor is unusable now by my standards.

For instance, when Correcting data, there is no drop-down to also Add at the same time. And vice versa.

There are no checkboxes to Correct All, or Keep Unchanged, or Hide Kept.

These all disappeared when you "updated" the mobile editor. They are still in the Desktop version.

There are a few other lacks I can't think of at the moment. Ones that the mobile editor used to have, but disappeared with this new (worse) version.

As for the format and the look of the new version, I won't go into details as I'm sure other contributors have already covered and complained about it. The old version was nice, though you did have to scroll sideways for some fields; at least that's been corrected.

I'll stick to using the Desktop editor, on my mobile device, until you at least restore the missing options. (Can't edit without them.) Even though I have to scroll sideways and zoom in and out all the time.

Also: The javascript in both editors is problematical: those buttons are too close to other links and the "working" icon animation is on the wrong button.

I understand it as a simplified form, which may have some benefits. But I would almost always prefer the desktop form, especially because of the ability the correct/delete and add a section in the same submission. The 'Hide Kept' checkbox would also come in handy on mobile to avoid too much scrolling.

There was an official post about the feature here:
