Unable to read the letters on my Samsung Fold 4, and no good way to report it. Almost 40 hrs so far of play. disappointing to say the least.

Great, but I wish I could play with more than one other person.

Nice app; good user interface. One improvement would be to make a way to view the scoring adjusters (2L, 3W) after the tiles have been placed, for example to see how my opponent got the score he did.
