Legendaryb3ast Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 As an Android user and avid PRO player, I'd like to point out a couple small things that would enhance the mobile experience. -Retain GUI Scale on Startup: Everytime I open this app, I am faced with having to adjust a very small slider just so I am able to press buttons with my fingers. If the GUI scale does not reset like the other settings, this would save a lot of time. -Secondly, for the more inexperienced members of the community, item descriptions (which can be found on the desktop versions) should be inplemented on Android. I understand that this conflicts with consumables and equippable items; therefore, I propose that when clicking on the item, it gives you the option for a Pokemon to use/hold said item, or cancel. This would make room for a hover effect for the description, much like the move descriptions that currently work on mobile. -The chat is one of the more frustrating things about playing on my phone, mainly due to button sizing vs gui scale proportions. I can't even tell you how many times I've hit the text input box or channel settings button rather than the chat expanding arrow. I think that it would be much more suitable if mobile users could swipe up and down on the chat to open and close it. It seems much more intuitive to me, and not hard to implement. That's pretty much all of the major-minor improvements I would appreciate being made. Here are some minor-minor things that would also make the mobile experience better: -More organized party (instead of 6 in a column, perhaps 2 columns with 3 each like in the originals? It just starts to overlap the menu beneath it with all 6 Pokemon) -Match desktop dialogue speed (the dialogue id much faster on the computer, but this may be a performance issue on Android so it is not crucial to make it faster) -Clear Pokedex search field when closed (makes searching more user friendly) -Capitalize the "i" in the dialogue of the first old guy in Cerulean. Yes, I did notice it. As you can see, there are plenty of small things that mobile users think about but do not necessarily reach out to discuss and improve. None of these changes take significant amounts of time to make. Other Android users who are reading this, speak out now! You never know if you can help an already beautiful game until you try. P.S. I typed all this on my phone :I Link to comment https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/36637-android-quality-of-life/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leochaos Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Again I agree, but I'd also rather these posts were compiles to one thread of suggestions with the first post updated for what people agree would be good suggestions rather than a new post every other week.
