Larger font for phone users

[REkzkaRZ]

Obsidian,

 

I love this game, however I have to have my phone very close to my face to read the text. I have a Nexus 6p, arguably a large phablet.

 

The card size & font could be larger, esp when I tap to zoom the card. Another idea might be a "long tap" might zoom important text LARGER?

 

Also the glow on moves I can do could be more significant (a larger spread, perhaps?). Sometimes the UI 'nudges' are far too subtle, leaving me uncertain what I'm supposed to do.

 

I don't think you need entirely separate versions for phone & tablet, but rather a 'switch' (in settings?) which can give an alternate layout for easier readability?

 

There is *A LOT* of unused real estate on my screen. Hard to believe LARGER isn't doable.

 

Thanks, keep up the great work!!

Those phone versions Are the next big update according the dev team. The ui exspecially. It Also means that iPhones will get support eventually.

I play on the Nexus 5x, which is a decent bit smaller than the 6p and I have no trouble reading zoomed cards, and the UI glow is easily noticable. Do you have some type of other app screen overlay changing view settings? Maybe increase your screen brightness to create a better contrast ratio.

I play on a 6P wihtout issue, though to be truthful I have not done it often and it's by far my least favorite way to play.

 

I usually am just reading or listening to a podcast when I only have my phone.

How are you playing on the 6P?  

[REkzkaRZ]

It's just waaay smaller than most games on the phone.

 

"HOW" do I play? Uh, dunno how to answer that. Like most people??? I also have it on my Note 3, somehow looks better on that...?

[elcooksta]

Not "HOW" do you play, but how do you get it installed on your iphone 6P?  I tried this morning and it said it is only available for iPad.

Aaaa... I think that it is Nexus P6...

This app does not install to iPhones, only to Android phones because the google shop does not make the difference... Even though this app is not mean to be played at this moment in any phone, it may work a kind of. Thats why the real phone ui is the next big step in the development of pathfinder adventures.

The Google play store does have the distinction between tablets and phones. But obsidian has not locked it down in the Android version. So if you have the required OS and hardware you can install it on your phone.

 

Additionally, even if there app was tablet picked on the play store, you could side load the app onto your phone if you really wanted to.

[REkzkaRZ]

Android store def distinguishes between phone and tablet. In fact, I guess it distinguishes between ALL models & sees if app is compatible?

 

Yeah, I meant Nexus 6p, sorry iPhone. There's probably not a big reason you can't play yet, but I'm not he dev so I'm just guessing (Hearthstone did that too, but I sideloaded a mod for phone version & played for months before phone version came put, but you can't sideload on iOS).

Thanks for clarifying!
