Love it! But has some issues

Absolutely love the app I was diagnosed with gastroparesis about 5 years ago now and have used the app ever since. My boyfriend was just diagnosed with something a few days ago and it’s always been difficult to fill out the survey because I have to press on my phone a billion times to get the text bar to pop up and then 2 seconds later it goes away and won’t let my type. I’m in desperate measures to learn more about this new condition I’ve never heard of. If you guys could fix this issue it would be GREAT and help tremendously.

Not sure how to add a treatment

I want to add a new treatment but I can’t find how and I don’t want to go through 66 or so questions if it’s in the edit part.

Glitching

The survey pages are not working. I cannot participate in the survey as it keeps erasing my answers and making me start over. Very frustrating.
