UI and UX

I know from experience that its a lot more work to develop a landscape layout for Android so i have nothing to say about the Landscape layout but there's really no excuse for this portrait layout not scaling thats basic Android development and its not hard to implement. I mean i could understand it if it was a complex UI but its pretty basic. How's it looking on other people's non smartphone devices.

 

Galaxy Tab S10 ultra

 

If Android itself can adapt the layout for a larger screen so easily then why not let it do it :/

Hi ​@J123456,

I’ve tested this on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S8+ and it scale’s correctly in both portrait and landscape mode without any setting adjustments. Your second picture looks like my app does on my tablet.

Does the layout for your tablet stay as your first image or can you set it to stay as the second image? If the app continually doesn’t scale correctly, then I’d suggest making sure your tablet is fully up to date or reinstalling the Sonos app if an OS update doesn’t resolve this.

I hope this helps.

If i set my screen zoom higher then the app does scale in portrait but not in landscape, in landscape its just centered  and theres a lot of empty space but again that setting is a system wide change. My tabs 14.6" btw were as i think the s8+ is around 11-12

 

Tablets up to date, so is the sonos app, already tried the usual trouble shooting stuff.
