1. Clicking on the correct friend in the friend list is an absolute pain.
- Perhaps having a zoom feature would help when going over friends list
2. Mobile device warms up significantly after 5 minutes of use

Otherwise I'm really really impressed!

Just got access to the beta recently. Using a Samsung Galaxy A5. I have some concerns after using the app for some time now:

- It doesn't seem to remember my mobile settings after closing and reopening the app. That is to say, the function button will reappear if I toggled it off in settings, the minimap will spring back up if I had it minimised etc.

- I'm surprised to see there's no way to invert the camera rotation swipe gesture? Some people would definitely prefer if the camera panned in the opposite manner to how it currently does.

- Similarly, I would have liked to have seen an option to scale the UI up or down in size (like League of Legends allows you to do) just as an ease of use feature. Those who value usability over available screen real estate like me would definitely like to scale everything up to make things easier to click.

- The minigame interface could be rebuilt from the ground up for mobile, it's impossible to select the teleport you want from that tiny drop-down menu.

- Selecting the 'private' chat from the top and then clicking next to the character name to type should reply to the last person to message you (akin to how the tab button on desktop does) rather than just having the message appear in public chat as it does currently.

I'm still testing but these were the first issues I've noticed.

As some players already mentioned, device warms up after 5 minutes.

Also wanted to say that top side of screen isn't the best place for chat box, because if I want to click for example to walk, 7/10 times I open my keyboard instead of doing the action I wanted. So I think chat box should be on the bottom side like on PC.

1. I keep disabling the visibility of the tap controls thing (fingerprint icon in lower-left corner) but upon login it's always there. Is there a reason for this?

2. Also can we make chatbox buttons taller and/or introduce a safezone around them as you did for the minimap? I have stubby thumbs and have trouble tapping them

3. Can you make it so we can scroll through friends list, clan list and skill guides by dragging down inside the window? Currently have to use the (very narrow) scrollbar. Or is there a setting for this and if so where?

Scrolling in the chatbox, bank interface and other interfaces is not very easy due to the small clickbox, especially on smaller screens.

I would suggest adding a scroll feature similar to how it works on iPhone and other menu screens, allowing the player to slide their finger anywhere on the interface to scroll up or down. It would also be nice to be able to scroll sideways in the bank interface to switch tabs, but that's much less important.

The biggest things I have been finding a major inconvenience are things i'm currently used to with standard third party client plugins. Things like ground overlay would be a HUGE benefit to mobile as you cant hover over items and if you're killing lots of monsters such as a daggonoth task items you can miss lots of items/seeds with the hassle of trying to right click each drop.

Another big benefit would some adjustments to volcanic mine. I have played a couple hours of it on mobile and its currently not very feasible with the way your vessel throws water. When you have the vessel wielded you have to hold rich click for each throw which sometimes doesn't work or un-equips. Maybe something like your character throws water on the tile you click.

I have not put a lot of time into mobile yet but there are some issues.

Phone: LG Q6

I have serious lag and delay when using the bank.
Taking an item from the bank seems to freeze the game for a moment,
just like when teleporting so withdrawing a few items takes a while.

Also, prayers seem to take a bit long to activate? Just an extra tick or so but it feels off.
