Web UI: mobile support #115

Open ghost opened 8 months ago

ghost commented 8 months ago

Hi!

I'm running Transmission on my RPi4 and managing it from Web UI with TrguiNG. I was using qBittorrent before just for its mobile support but it was too taxing and speeds suffered from this, Transmission is way better on this, at least for me.

Would it be possible or is it planned to add mobile support to Web UI?

Thanks in adavance!

It's possible to make the interface more mobile friendly but to make it support mobile properly would require major design changes. Current UI is intended to be a desktop app replacement with "everything is within 1 or 2 clicks" philosophy, it just does not work well on small screens.

After trying web ui on my android I see a few low hanging fruit that should improve usability quite a bit and I will likely get around to do these at some point but don't expect significant changes.

For mobile use I recommend using native apps, for android "Transmission Remote" on google play is quite good.

Understood! I Will try a native app and wait if something server-side would be implemented. Thanks again!

https://github.com/equeim/tremotesf-android is the best one I found.

default transmission UI bit better for Mobile. Not so useful but I can see everything I need and can do almost everything.

Can I use two web interfaces at the time?

Or maybe as an option try to use default interface as mobile view for TrguiNG?

No

There will not be a separate mobile view, let alone someone else's code. Proper fix is to make TrguiNG interface responsive to screen width but I'm not very motivated to work on it because there are plenty of better alternatives on mobile.
