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

First off : thanks for inviting me to this IOS beta :)

I am currently just WC'ing at yews, what a blast :D

The app hasen't crashed or even stuttered for me. I was playing on 4G when I was at the gym and it took some time to load the map when moving, but then again that could be my provider :)

Some problems:

-Sound doesnt seem to work

-When I first started the app I could type in chatbox, but now it doesn't seem to work anymore, even after restarting client.

-Battery drains fast but thats understandable in a beta :)

-When playing on fixed, black bar on my screen.

I will post more feedback later on

Loving the mobile experience so far!

Playing on iphone 6S - 64 GB

Large black bars on the sides of the screen on the iPhone X, also slightly at the top and bottom make the game window very small.
Also in fixed mode i noticed searching the GE i was unable to click on the item i required unless i typed the entire name.

Loving the beta so far, everything I’ve done runs smoothly and haven’t found anything that isn’t working yet. I’m playing on an iPad Pro with a 13 inch screen.

With this much screen space, there is a lot of unused space. It would be nice to be able to set the location of things on screen, such as: mini map, xp counter, and chat box.

I hope this could be a possibility, although I haven’t logged in on my phone to see if it would be useful on a smaller screen.

My feedback so far;

I'm using an iPhone 6s.

the general use and 'smoothness' is amazing i can do everything i normally could and when gotten used to will be an every day use for me.

the few issues i have found so far..

for me even at max volume i cannot hear game sounds or music, i have no other music app playing and i have tried with my mute button on and off (the switch on the side of the phone).

When in full screen mode the game is very quick for responding however in fixed mode it almost feels clunky and a bit less responsive? i also see a quite very very small graphics change freom full to fixed screen

will add more if i find any issuers or bugs but so far, really impressed

My feedback here:

- I think that when you first login using the mobile app, the the default setting is too zoomed out. I think that when you log in the game should be zoomed in a little more and that most people would prefer that too. Also, when you adjust the zoom settings it does not save it when you log in again.

- I think clicking should be disabled in the small area in between and above the game tabs where it says all/game/public/private/clan etc because when you are clicking up there you are most likely just trying to click on a game tab like public chat and not trying to move your character.

- I think that when you are opening your bank, the area of the bank screen should be bigger. When people are accessing their bank they don't necessarily need to see whats going on around them. With the limited space on the mobile app, I think it would help a great deal to have the bank bigger because people are mostly just focused on getting the items out of their bank. I also think that increasing the size of it would also greatly help with two finger scrolling down the bank, as there is little room to do this and it does not seem to work very well. I am also aware that the bank size is fitted to also be able to see the game chat while accessing the bank, however I think the space would be better used for larger bank size.

- If you leave your finger held down on the scroll button on the bank, the app assumes you want to right click, when in reality you just want to scroll up or down, I think this needs to be fixed too.

- I think that the "deposit all" button for inventory items should possibly be moved or made smaller because of the proximity to the scroll down button. Many times I would just be trying to scroll down and it is very easy to hit the deposit all button because it is right next to it. I feel that those buttons shouldn't be as close together as they are because it leaves a high probability for error and this would probably happen to a lot of people.

First hour or so of playtime feedback on an iphone 6s:

Negatives
- While trying to switch between osrs and the authenticator code generater thing to try to get a code to log in, the osrs app resets and by the time I re-enter my long login information, I need to get a brand new code. I was able to type in the info in time but it wasn't easy.

-Not just during the login screen, but I've had audio distortions on lunar island and some other places such as in the Vorkath fight.

-Battery drains extremely quick.


Neutral
- The shift click drop equivalent is nice to use, although I could see it causing disaster for some players if they forget that they had it toggled on and dropped all of their armor when trying to equip it. I realize this can be remedied by the player simply not forgetting about it though.

Positives
-No lag on my iphone 6s even in crowded areas. Loading times such as when teleporting to my PoH isn't very long.

-Left clicking,right clicking, and moving the camera are all smooth.

-I was able to do a 2 kill Vorkath trip second try without much issue, except clicking on such a small object on mobile quickly (the undead spawn) is quite difficult. I was able to get the two kills mostly just tanking the damage though.

Overall: I'm quite happy with how mobile looks so far, it is much smoother to play and transition to than expected.

Edits: I tried running the app in low power mode. While a little laggy, it seems that it's still very easy to do skilling activities while using less power which is nice. Even Wintertod was quite playable in the main world with like 100 people running around the area.

Not sure if it’s already been said but I’ve been trying out some barrows on mobile and I’ve noticed that the reward percentage is covered up on the rite hand side of the screen making it difficult to see what percentage of reward you have currently achieved, nothing massive but thought I’d address it.
