Too fast!

I thought I'd finally found a replacement for Kana Trace on my old iPad 2, an app that lets me practice the stroke order of kanas without being too fussy as to their shape. Unfortunately, as the game goes on, the correction animation goes faster and faster, to the point where you can hardly follow (a problem with iOS 14, perhaps?). Instead of an animation, a picture with the stroke order would be better (and easier to focus on rather than the repeating animation).
