dear @skyjake Lagrange on Android is very addictive... I have a request or suggestion (it depends by your mood) to improve the UI.
My thumbs would be really happy if you can compact/move the:
URL Bar
the tabs
the toolbar
At the bottom, actually the toolbar is already there...
Also I like the tabs the way they are, however modern mobile browsers show tab as preview or something like that, this wouldn't make sense with Gemini since everything look the same.
Not sure if you can do that but maybe when the tabs bar is too crowd you may simply slide left or right or click a dropdown button and show off all the tabs. However I prefer the first solution.
Thanks!

@skyjake terrific news!!! You are doing great!!! Thank you!!! 馃嵑馃嵑馃嵑 路 10 months ago
The implementation for mobile is going great. I have it pretty much working for both phone and tablet, with separate options for URL and/or tabs at bottom.
There are still a few glitches but I think I can release an updated Android build soon. 路 10 months ago
@skyjake looks cool also on the desktop version! 路 10 months ago

Getting this on mobile requires a few more tweaks, such as attaching the navbar to be hidden with the toolbar, and moving it up for the keyboard. Should be worth it, though. 路 10 months ago
I agree with the ergonomic benefits of having the commonly accessed elements near the bottom. I'll do some experiments and see what works. 路 10 months ago
@eph I tend to use one hand at the time, so the problem here is not the consistency but the ergonomy.
Based on my phone screen the closer UI to the thumbs the better... 馃憤 路 10 months ago
Personally, I like how consistent across platforms Lagrange is, though it would be cool to have an option to move the tab bar and URL bar to the bottom. Either way, using Lagrange is a joy, it reminds me of the old Nokia UI (UX?) that I loved so much on a phone I had a long time ago. 路 10 months ago
