Why is my answer leido(without accent) marked wrong instead of marked as "nearly correct"?

I use a tablet to practice Lawless Spanish while on the treadmill. I am unable to place accent marks with the tablet, usually this is not a problem as those answers go into the nearly correct column. My answer to: Los estudiantes ya _____ las instrucciones, han leido was marked wrong. This is inconsistent and confusing. Please look into this.

Es o está for location

“Jacinta y yo sabemos donde es la fiesta”. I thought it was standard to say está when referring to location. Am I missing something about a circumstance to say “donde es”?

tomo--why "here?"

"Yo tomo el café con menos leche"--why is "tomo" shown as "have" in the English translation? It is a very common phrase in English to say "I take my coffee with . . . ," so was there a reason to change it to "here?"

Test Percentage Never Changes

I have obtained 99.0% on this objective; but no matter how many times I answer the questions on the quzzes correctly, the percentage never changes; not even by a ten of a percentage point. Am I the only one having this problem. Can it be fixed?

Hi. Thanks for this exercise. I was wondering why we used the present tense here. I just found the answer at the top of the text. No further explanation needed. Sorry.
