Redrawn for a phone in a hand and a television across a room

A phone has a bar along the bottom

Home, Movies, TV Shows, Library and More, where the thumb already is. On a narrow screen the sidebar was an overlay behind a hamburger - two taps to anywhere, and a menu nobody could see. Four stops are pages; the fifth is a sheet holding Anime, Live TV, Downloads, Settings and Account, and the dot on it is what says a download is running.

• The three library lists share one stop, and the heading is what switches between them.
• Settings opens on the list of sections, the way every phone's settings does, and Back from a section returns to it. On a desktop it still opens straight into Appearance.
• Poster size on a phone finally does something. The grid was three across whatever the setting said; it is the size you asked for now, never narrower than two to a row, and a row and a grid show the same posters at the same size on the same screen.

Hold a card

Favourite, watchlist, watched and play only ever appeared on hover - invisible to a finger and unreachable from a remote, which walks past them by design. The same four are now a sheet: right-click it, hold a finger on it, or hold OK. On a television that last one took some doing - the WebView clicks a focused card eight milliseconds after the key goes down, half a second before you have let go, so the press is now kept back and replayed on release. A tap is still a tap. The transfer list answers the same three presses on a row.

No slider a remote has to reach

Every slider in Settings is now less, the value, more. A slider with tiny steps is forty presses to cross, and up or down leaves it changed, which is not a control - it is a trap. Blur, tint, poster and cast-card size, dialogue boost, the speed limits and the cache size all take a press each; the two limits and the cache walk a short list of sensible stops rather than a hundred half-megabyte ones.

• The seek bar stays, because left and right on it is the only way to scrub.
• The colour spectrum stays for a mouse and hides itself on a television, as does the poster-size slider on the browse bar - the same setting is a stepper under Appearance → Display.

A player bar built for all three

Elapsed, the rail and what is left on one line, so the row under it is only buttons, with play dead centre whatever the sides hold - which is where a d-pad lands. The next episode is now a button there too, without waiting for this one to end.

• Play and pause sit in the middle of the picture on a touchscreen, where a thumb is already resting, and in the bar everywhere else.
• The bar is measured rather than added up, so the subtitle panel clears it and the subtitles lift over it on all three screens. A phone held sideways is 395px tall with two bars in it, and the panel there was three rows.
• Closing a panel hands focus back to the button it was opened from. It used to drop a remote onto nothing, and the next press had to find the bar again.

Your own keyboard shortcuts

Settings → Keyboard: pick an action, press the key you want it on. Backspace takes one away, Escape leaves it as it was, and one button puts them all back. Only what you changed is stored, so a default that improves in a later build still reaches you. Subtitle offset gained a reset (Ctrl+Z), the digits still jump to that tenth of the film, and the section stays out of the way on Android, where the keys are the remote's.

The transfers page is one list now

The eight-column table and its own sidebar are gone - the table was twice a phone's width with the buttons permanently off screen, and the page had a second navigation to keep in step with the first. One row that stacks its stats under the name reads the same at 400px and at 1400.

• The state filters are chips with their counts, above the list.
• Add magnet, the engine's speeds and the cache figure moved onto the page.
• Copy magnet, per row.
• A long list stays light: the list refreshes every two seconds, and rows that are off screen now cost nothing to draw, the same bargain the poster grids already made.

Fixes

• BACK is the page's again on Android. The framework's own handler popped the WebView's history whenever it could, so BACK on a film with the subtitle panel open left the film rather than closing the panel. Every press is now the page's to answer, and at the root the app goes behind whatever is next.
• Leaving the player can't dead-end. If the title page failed to load, the film stayed on screen with BACK doing nothing at all. It steps back out instead.
• Native browser tooltips are gone throughout - an unstyled system box, half a second late, in the system font, and the one tooltip a television can't be spared. They are the app's own now, everywhere.
• The subtitle panel fits the space between the two bars instead of a fraction of the screen height.
• All 72 languages carry the new screens.
