Hello this is feedback for the OSRS ios Mobile BETA,

I am using an IOS iphone 7,

What I've noticed so far from the beta,

- Security breach could be possibly easy since most people have authentication on there phone and the osrs app. This could be resolved by a numeric passcode or fingerprint scanner.
- Brightness doesn't change or a noticeable change.
- No music can be heard even with music at max volume.
- Difficult to click on the icons, such as chat I always seem to mis-click and the inventory they almost seem they should be bigger.
- The app drains battery quickly which was what I expected.
- Shift click dropping should be added for things such as fishing and wanting to drop the fish quickly.
- Auto-logging in seems a little scary if you don't have a passcode on your phone, there should be an option for auto-log.
-Very easy to "fat finger" things and easily mis-click, possibly make a bigger icon option.
- Fixed mode has a black line on the right side of the screen, but is also a lot easier to use since there is not much mis-clicking
-skills like runecrafting would be really hard will all of the right-clicking.
- when I click the chat-log to type It seems to mis-click and "walk here" me instead of clicking the chat.
- Bigger bank screen would be nice since it's difficult scrolling through a big bank

This is all I've found so far in the first hours of the beta, I will keep on updating when I find more.

Thanks for the invitation,
Sincerely, Gucci Uzi

I just wanted to say that installing the testflight ap* on my IPhone 7 and getting OSRS mobile was super easy! I’ve successfully tried some of the gestures and love how intuitive and well done they are, especially for right-click context menus and how you can slide your finger to select an option. The in-game tutorial for controls was very effective (taught me drag-to-rotate camera).

Overall I am beyond impressed you guys made a *mobile-optimized* app that feels delightful to use, and am looking forward to trying some farm runs and other tasks. This is easily one of my favorite game additions so far.

The only early hiccup I ran into was I couldn’t seem to tap on “Remember Username” on log-in screen but would love to use TouchID just like others mentioned as I use it for a lot of my other apps already. Emily

On an Iphone 7s, using non fixed mode

1: When activating shift drop the icon on the bottom right turns red. When logging out and logging back in, the icon remains red, but shift drop is no longer activated.

2: I know that tooltips being difficult to activate is a known issue, but when I'm hovering over my xp and the tooltip does show up, I cant read it because my finger is giant. Might want to move tooltips to a set location away from the normal click area.

3: Not really a bug or anything but the fact that there is space around the icons (inventory etc) where you can click walk here has gotten me to accidentally walk somewhere I dont want to go while trying to open my inv. I could certainly get used to it, but at first glance it feels like it would be better for these buttons to rest along the edge of the screen.

4. My phone has battery saver inactivity timer thingy. Essentially it goes dim whenever I dont interact with my phone for like 1-2 minutes, and then shuts off after another minute. Apps like Youtube and Twitch seem to bypass this timer and prevent it from going to sleep. This would be very nice to have as I was having to wake my phone up while cutting teaks as it would dim the screen before the tree fell.

5. Could we get a battery icon? I know that since you dont get logged out you can close the app to look at your battery life, but I feel that having a battery icon would be very important as the game does take quite a bit of power to use.

6. Not sure if its actually an issue, but when I left WiFi and switched over to using data it logged me out. Could have just been a coincidence, didnt try to reproduce it. Also I've crashed at least once every time i climb the grand tree. Maybe the tree is up to something.

Other than that everything looks great so far! 1 click dropping is smooth as butter, I'm having less trouble dropping things than I do on my desktop! Awesome job guys!

Hello this is feedback for the OSRS ios Mobile BETA,

I am using an IOS iphone 7,

What I've noticed so far from the beta,

General:


- Security breach could be possibly easy since most people have authentication on there phone and the osrs app. This could be resolved by a numeric passcode or fingerprint scanner.

- Brightness doesn't change or a noticeable change.

- No music can be heard even with music at max volume.

- The app drains battery quickly which was what I expected.

- Shift click dropping should be added for things such as fishing and wanting to drop the fish quickly.

- Auto-logging in seems a little scary if you don't have a passcode on your phone, there should be an option for auto-log.

- When you search something in the bank and then close the bank, the text box will still be open.

-skills like runecrafting would be really hard will all of the right-clicking.

- Bigger bank screen would be nice since it's difficult scrolling through a big bank, like a bigger scroll bar.

Resizable mode:


- Difficult to click on the icons, such as chat I always seem to mis-click and the inventory they almost seem they should be bigger.

-Very easy to "fat finger" things and easily mis-click, possibly make a bigger icon option.

- when I click the chat-log to type It seems to mis-click and "walk here" me instead of clicking the chat.

Fixed Mode:


- Fixed mode has a black line on the right side of the screen, but is also a lot easier to use since there is not much mis-clicking

- When I hop worlds it doesn't register I am clicking chat log to type



This is what I've found on the first hours of the beta, I will keep on updating when I find more.

Hello :) this is my first time using the forum so hopefully it is as simple as it seems. Just wanted to report a few simple things I have tested and give my feedback as to how they are on mobile, I am using an Iphone 6s for reference.
My device is somewhat older so I expected the battery to not hold up especially well. In a session of ~35 minutes of me standing at the G.E testing out crafting (glassblowing) I managed to use about 50% of my battery life. The windows all work great and banking then performing the crafting action works perfectly.
After I did some crafting I tested out just simple magic tree woodcutting teleporting to Xeric's glade chopping logs at the two trees and banking at castle wars with a duelling ring and again everything worked great no issues what so ever! :)
I then did Ardy Knights for a short time and they went as expected just simple tapping and no issues with that.
I then decided to test out a boss so I used game sounds to see how those went and the only issues seem to be when I get a notification from another app or possibly when I switched prayers but I cannot confirm that was what caused audio glitches. Songs work great, I went through randomly clicking songs I had unlocked and it appeared that they all were playing right with no glitches other than those mentioned above Sea Shanty 2 worked so thats all that matters anyways :p .
But, again I did do four kills of KBD and everything went smoothly considering that about my average kills per trip using rune crossbow.
Overall first impression is incredible. I was expecting the game to be much harder to navigate and deal with but it ran very smoothly and seems to be well designed. Great work again to those involved and I plan to post again with a few more skilling tests hopefully :) .
Also forgot to mention one other thing. The chat bar seems to be a little inconsistent when clicking to type, however that could be due to my fingers being a little too large.

I made a post regarding my other concerns however I feel my Idea would be better stated on here.

As it sits currently there is no touch functionality on the zoom in the world map. This is an easy fix just thought I'd let you guys know because as it is the only way to zoom on the world map is to use the magnifying glass.

Thanks,
Kieran
