MSI Mosern are really good bang for the buck. I did some research about some budget laptops for a friend under 500$ and MSI won, not only by the specs but also from an extensibility standpoint (non-soldered RAM slots).

Pidgin IM client comes to my mind where there was a feature (not sure if only for Yahoo Messenger or also for other services) that when someone started to type, their chat window appeared for me. People were shocked about how I knew they were going to message me. Would be fun to have something like this on slack.

A lot of these aren't "small screen" problems, just bad/hacky coding, not doing things like apple recommends or not handling some edge cases, so they're simply just bugs.

Clubhouse - maybe it's an issue that the UI on the right isn't disappearing completely, but maybe that's by design. Anyway, nothing is clipped/truncated

Spotify - the "now plating" bar's height isn't added to the scrollview's content inset. Not a small screen issue since it's on the vertical axis and content is scrollable.

Globe Telecom - yes, this could count as one (with the tabbar).

CloudMd - that's just probably hardcoding the status bar's height, nothing is truncated/out of view.

Foodpanda - that side menu is actually scrollable. y letter is cut off, ok. Nothing you can't access.

Google Maps - this is a design decision, same ratio of map/list height on my iPhone XS. You can either view the map or the list in full screen

Headspace - navigation/status bar issue, just bad coding local bank - yes, this counts as well

Lalamove - yes, 2 textfields are too much

Shortcuts - scroll up?

I do agree that small screen devices aren't getting enough focus on this regard.

edit: formatting

A remote control app (Android/iOS, written in Flutter) for Philips smart TV-s. I don't like the official one, it's buggy.

Right now it only has basic controls and a trackpad, but I plan on adding channel/favorites/app lists and other stuff.

I cut a lot of features, as I want it out released, so I'm focusing on the basics, which is the auth with tv logic and basic controls.

I plan on doing a beta release to iron out issues with the authentication logic. If you're interested, drop a mail to phimoteapp@gmail.com .
