SBrick Android App in the forum

Hi Guys,
I have now had time to try out the new android app on my Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (Android 4.4.2) and have noticed a few minor issues that I hope can be rectified in one of the future releases.
Slider Tracking:
I too have noticed an issue with a slider that has "Auto Reset" turned OFF. Essentially the slider button tracks with my finger perfectly at first use (say when I set it to full throttle and take my finger off the screen). However when I touch the slider button for a second time and try move it to a new position then the slider button jumps ahead of my finger and moves erratically. Not a major issue but a bug that I thought was worth mentioning.
Vehicle Control with Joystick:
I currently have a modified Unimog which uses one servo motor for steering, and two L-motors (connected to a single port) for drive. Recently I have been using the standard "42042S Crawler Crane" profile to control this by assigning both acceleration and steering ports to the RH Joystick. This has previously been fine on both the Android App V1.7, and the current IOS App (on my Ipad Mini 2).
Within V2.0 of the Android App I have found that acceleration works fine when I move the joystick to the 12 o'clock & 6 o'clock positions, and the steering fully engages when I move the joystick to the 3 o'clock & 9 o'clock positions. Now, however, I find that I am no longer able to accelerate at full speed and turn hard left/ right simultaneously by moving the joystick to the 1 - 2 o'clock, 3 - 4 o'clock, 7 - 8 o'clock, or 10 - 11 o'clock positions. Instead I find one or both of the functions cuts out depending on the joystick position
