It looks much better if your phone has properly set scaling
How can I set scaling ? My phone has Android 9.
At least on my devices, there's two ways of doing it, either changing the font size.
Or on lock developer settings by clicking on build number in the about phone than Software Information. Than go back into the main menu for setting and at the bottom you shoul see developer settings. Once you enter developer settings scroll to the bottom and you should set find a option called minimum width. decreasing the number makes things more compact while increasing it does the opposite. I would recommend going by small increments of 10 to 50 since going to drastic will make it very difficult to change the setting back.
Thanks! I'm gonna have a look at this.
A settings menu is useful. What's the issue?
"Let's put the back, forward, reload and share buttons so distant from the open menu button that it needs to move your hand."
Back forward and refresh buttons don’t belong in a “More options…” menu. They belong on the main view.
I definitely prefer quicker access to the controls even with reduced viewing area. I'm normally only going to be skimming things in my phone's browser so I'm going to be frequently using the controls.
This is so annoying. Whenever I want to use page search my muscle memory clicks some random button instead. It would've been acceptable if this accomodated new features but it doesn't add anything at all and only makes it stick out from the other UI elements in the app.
The big round corner is unbelievable ugly... at least in my opinion. If right angle is not popular in modern UI, the small round corner like in URL bar is acceptable to me, but this one is too huge...
