Concerns about Authenticator:

Currently it's kind of annoying to do the type in the authentication number because of all the tabbing you have to do, would there be any way for the app to read your texts or the authentication app for authentication instead?

I have two devices and I was planning to test on both. I realized that it could be annoying for people with two devices to sign in on mobile because they wouldn't have access to the authenticator on their second device. This could be solved by linking the authenticator to the google play account.

When I'm trying to update my mobile client to the latest version of the game, after today's update, I get an error saying that the object cannot be found. Does anyone know a fix to this?

Edit: wrong play account

App runs great so far on a Samsung Galaxy J7. One minor inconvenience that I first experienced was if you have the chat closed, and search for something in your bank, the search bar covers the first 2 or 3 bank tabs, due to the bank moving up when the chat is closed. Also, this is probably more of a phone issue, but after doing Dag Kings for a little over an hour, my phone heated up and to push any button I had to click above the desired button. Other than that, the app has been running perfectly

I have a samsung galaxy s5 plus and I always have to type in my authenticate code, even if I say that it has to remember it for 30 days.
I can understand that this is normal with 4g, but this also happends with my 2 home wifi's. Sometimes it's no problem if I typed the authenticate code the day, but other times I have to do it every time logged out.

And another thing: when I typed my authenticate code and logged in, it said it was an f2p world (which the app chose himself) and I am a member and was in a member world. Zo I had to type the authenticate code for the second time and I changed my world to aember world.

And positive things: dropping items is really accurate, agility is nice and farming too. But everything runs smoothly and it looks good.

Idea to help with clicking things:
I do think mobile would be pretty much perfect on a tablet, on phones however clicking things isnt always the easiest feat since the interfaces are rather small. So, how about adding a feature that, by pinch gesture, you could zoom in on the interace for a while?

In practice: you're using your bank and want some more control? Trying to click a certain spell and making sure you dont click the wrong one? Want to make some darts for a while?
Pinchzoom your current interface -> game closes most other things to make a bit more space and gives you a bit of a bigger spellbook etc (maybe like 1,5x) to click on. If this was to work as smoothly as the rest of the game does atm I could very well see myself using it for the fertile soil spell (surreounded by teleports), fletching (dart tips are very small) and other things

Reporting players while using mobile is less than ideal. Even when you right-click their username and select "Report _____" the keyboard pops up as if you need to retype their username. Then, because the text is so small, it is very easy to misclick the offense type. For example, I went to report someone for scamming, but I accidentally clicked "Seriously offensive language".

For some positive feedback as well, I'm loving the bank interface. Being able to set a single click as withdrawal/deposit X is very helpful when fletching.

For slayer tasks or monsters in general picking up loot is hard to see. Have to zoom in. Skills tab is so much easier after thursday'so update. I have been playing mobile withouto WiFi and data usage is reasonable and limiting fps is handy. Change the red text on the chatbox it's hard to read especially when it concerns using of antifire potions. Samsung galaxy A32 5G
Over the last couple of days in busy areas like grand exchange and nex banking, the chat box goes blank. Using the ge when trying to sell specific number of items like 2000 cannonballs I can't see the textbox and can't buy items on mobile unless it's in item history.

After playing about 20 hours on phone by now, I feel like I should mention the things I have in mind. In my first post I mostly only detailed performance. Playing on Huawei p10, Android 7.0:

- Some UI elements could reaaally use some upscaling, or anything done to them which helps precise clicking. It's pretty tough to hit some stuff, e.g Trollheim teleport right after Spellbook Swap, or basically any spell that is surrounded by teleports etc. Things like using the right spirit tree tele also fall into this category - it's really hard to click the right one, unless I'm forcing a right click and then checking if it was the right one or not. I feel like I shouldn't have to do that, and I have slender fingers as is.

- Number/letter shortcuts don't work when using certain items or objects. Not sure if this is an issue on my end, but for instance for the aforementioned spirit trees, I can't input a number to teleport somewhere. Same story for an ornate jewelry box - and things like these could use bigger click zones per item anyway (as per my upscaling suggestion).

- Some skills are much easier/harder to train than the others. For instance, woodcutting and mining are extremely easy. Fishing is easy if you know you have a specific spot to click, but if there are many options, it's unintuitive to click like a madman till you find the right fishing spot, or to just right click everywhere. Things like agility are also semi hard to train because of the precision of some click zones and due to the lack of a mouse over hover on mobile. What would help with these would be some overlays - I realise it's basically what some 3rd party clients do as is, but I don't see the harm in it, except for the work required.

- Bank scrolling could use some work.

- Would it be possible to make the chat box smaller? It's way too intrusive as it is. Yes, I can minimise it, but I don't want to. Currently it's so distracting I often have to. Could be pretty much half of the current size.

More Feedback!
After another couple hours of playing and some app updates:
The Low FPS mode is very big for the battery!
If I were to compare, 20 FPS mode is equivalent to battery drain like Pokemon GO. Phone does not overheat as fast now. However, on 15 FPS mode, I noticed there is a very noticeable tap delay which makes it very difficult to play. A problem I have also noticed is the settings do not get applied once the app is restarted and one has to access the FPS menu to toggle it back on.

Maybe prevent tapping the world in the upper portion of the screen. There are many times I want to see my phone status such as time and battery where I swipe down from the top and sometimes the game registers a tap and I end up running off somewhere.

Hunter: Catching butterflies on mobile. It is very difficult to tap on the butterflies.
