Switch from wordbanks to keyboard in the app.
Hello. Is there a way to switch from using wordbanks to using the keyboard in the app? I'm learning Chinese, and feel using the keyboard makes me actually learn. Using the wordbanks is really bad for a language where you have to memorize hundreds of thousands of characters. For a while I was only able to use the keyboard, but since a few days the app is only giving me wordbanks.

I know it's not a great solution, but until duolingo decides to stop crippling the app version (probably never) you can use a browser on your phone to access the website, and there you can switch to the keyboard. Another option is to switch to a different app altogether. The ones focusing on Asian languages often do a better job with them than Duolingo does.

I have the opposite problem - it suddenly forced me to use the keyboard instead of a word bank, but doesn't accept traditional characters (which are used where I live). And there's no way to switch back!
