Looking at your simulated screen, I understand your feedback. But the viewport size assigned to the Galaxy A71 (914x412) is WRONG. As reported by modeutil and confirmed by whatismyvieport.com, the viewport size of the Galaxy A71 is 736x412 (which is by the way similar to the 736x414 of several iPhones).
In previous versions, the design of the interface displayed on my laptop fitted perfectly my smartphone screen in landscape mode whitout any visible cropping. I am not a developer, but does it mean that in the new version the same style could be applied for both PC screens and (some) smartphones ?
Hope is what makes us live !
Best regards.
I also tested the full UI on 736 width and it suffers from the same usability issues as 914 for example the text in most parts of the UI is way too small, several UI elements are crammed right at the screen edges, the volume knob is still very small and challenging to operate accurately, etc, etc.
My goal for smartphone landscape was to create a universal layout that looks great, is easy to use, has widespread applicability and reduced code complexity and maintenance. The full UI on smartphone landscape doesn't meet those criteria and so its a non-starter.
