Neat! Bug report: on my iPhone when I quickly double-tap the backspace button it zooms on that element, which is pretty distracting.

For the developer - adding the following to the viewport meta property stops the double-tap zoom on mobile (note: stops all zooming on mobile):

  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0" />

Please don't do this. Web-sites that restrict scaling are terrible for accessibility.

Almost unusably so, as I’m trying new letter rapidly.

Fixed!

Hmm maybe not, this is still happening for me.
