Nothing has to be typed
Every drill that asked you to type an answer can be answered by choosing one instead — and a chosen answer counts for half a step, because recognizing a word isn't the same as being able to write it.

Typing a Ukrainian word on a phone, with a keyboard you added last Tuesday, in an alphabet you're still learning, tests your thumbs as much as your memory. Some days you know the word perfectly well and still can't get it out.
What changed
Every typing drill now has a Choose button. Press it and the same question comes back with four answers to pick from.
It isn't a separate, easier mode. It's the same question, and it counts — for half a step rather than a whole one. Recognizing «дякую» among four options is genuinely easier than writing it from nothing, and pretending otherwise would only make your schedule wrong.
If you'd rather always start with a choice, that's a setting. If you'd rather never see one, it's the same setting.
Why a new word starts there
The first time a word comes round, you've seen it once, in a conversation, maybe an hour ago. Asking you to type it is asking you to fail. New words now start with choosing and move to typing as they settle, which is the order you'd use with a person.
