Overall I think the mobile client has been what I expected. Here are a few of the bugs i have noticed on my Galaxy 7:
Public chat does not work
I got stuck rotating my screen around and could not click off to the bank or anything else
When i opened the fairy ring interface there was a grey box behind it, also a few lines were going through the letters that shouldn't be there
On the login screen when I was putting my authenticator in, i closed out my app to get my authenticator but when i came back i could not open the keyboard on the authenticator screen. I had to retype my username and pass to get it open again
Maybe i have sausage fingers but i have been misclicking a lot, sure that's most likely on my end. Perhaps lower the amount of people the friends list displays
Bring back the welcome home screen to house so it doesnt show you teleport around the house
In some caves (shilo gem mine) i have noticed walls replaced with a black void
Make the friends list and worlds list smaller'
A tab to reply function would be nice
I experienced a bug where all my menu screens were blank not showing data. No gear No friends list all were blank. quickly fixed by a reset
I have noticed it is very difficult to look at your exp. Perhaps display it a little higher than normal since my finger always blocks it
It is very difficult to scroll through text

to get the public chat to work you need to activate the function - mode button found in settings. Once you have that turned on you will have a new button in the bottom left of your screen. Press and hold to activate the different functions.

Phone used/using: Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge

I've noticed the fairy ring visual bug as well, on top of being unable to chat. I tried typing in public chat and even pming a friend and no keyboard was brought up. Also, I have the zombie blue halloween skin color and it shows through my purple slayer helmet (i). It's not entirely visible but when my character's head "shifts around" there are a few blue pixels that can be seen.

I also visited my player owned house, teleporting to it looks weird but after a second it looks fine. Running/walking present a small visual bug where there are lines that appear on the floor.

It's also a huuuuuuuge drain on my phone's battery. I downloaded it on a full charge and once I started playing, it started eating away at my battery.

Aside from the small things I've noticed so far, it's pretty solid. I feel like once the chat is fixed, battery issues are addressed, and the small cosmetic bugs are patched, it could be released fully. And I'm not just saying that because I want it to be out already

I haven't tried any minigames or anything like that, just been doing slayer and skilling like I normally do.

Edit: Also, I thought that having the edge screen on my phone would make the client look weird, but it doesn't affect it at all.

Edit 2: I have a frozen abyssal whip and when wielded, the frozen segments do not appear.

When activating function - mode button on the one click function, attempting to drop items out of inventory I was unable to drop the the bottom two layers of inventory spaces in this mode. All other inventory slots drops just fine with the one click function.

I'm using a Samasung Galaxy S8+

Couple things since I started playing the beta..using an s8
Most times, if you d/c from Wi-Fi to the mobile network it will kick you off the game and may take a few minutes before you can log in
If you unequip more than one item in the same game tick the xp bar will pop up even if you hadn't gained xp.
Jumping from an app back to osrs will sometimes lead to the screen not fully rendering.
The "utility button" on the bottom left is useful.. But setting it up to change from single tap to tap and hold is a pain to go back to the tap and hold option since it's in the corner and space is tight.
"Hovering" over things like skills to see do and spell rune requirements can be hard to see since your finger covers it up, so if there's a way to move where that information shows that would be awesome.
The house rendering when you tele to house will show you teleporting around as the house renders rather than the "welcome home" pop up screen.
If you use the down/up arrows in your bank you will get a long tap delay which will stop you from scrolling.

Other than those minor things the gameplay is really smooth and I've been able to chat just fine. Great work so far! I'll post more as time goes on.

Thanks!

To talk in chat you need to activate the function button in the settings and set the function button in the bottom left to keyboard, once you tap it again it will bring up a keyboard to talk in chats. This function key also have a lot of other functions.

Not sure if anyone else has encountered this but im using a Samsung galaxy s7 and when im logging into the game im unable to backspace, so if i enter a wrong character on my password or email i have to hit cancel and re type the whole thing from the start.

Edit fixed the problem

no worries, took me a solid 10 minutes to figure that out as well, was wondering why I couldn't type.
