bug in puzzles with android application

Hi
Start a puzzle with Android application, and touch the button to rotate the game !
The next puzzle is displayed and it looks like no point is lost or won.
I'd expect only a rotation of the game with the same puzzle...

This allow to solve only puzzles looking easy.
It occurs since several months, I think. However I don't find the actual version in the "About".

Thanks however for the great application and site.
If you refer to this button

the tooltip says "Sync and refresh saved puzzles" so it's not a button to rotate the game.
Ok, I had not seen the tooltip.
But the problem is that it is nearly the same glyph as the button allowing to rotate game, so it lead to cancel the puzzle by error.
I think that, if the Sync functionality is really useful, a confirmation should at least be requested to give up with the puzzle.
And a button to rotate the game can be useful.
> a button to rotate the game can be useful
Maybe. You have it on the website version, but I think it's not such a core feature for puzzles (I honestly never used it) to make it for the mobile version that has to be as minimal as possible.

> it is nearly the same glyph as the button allowing to rotate game
True, they're similar. Yet another reason not to have both together ^_^
