[Feature Request] Enhancing Android App Usability for Android TV Devices
Closed this issue · 2 comments
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Yes, the problem is related to the usability of the Android app on Android TV. Currently, navigating through the app using a remote control is not intuitive, and it is difficult to determine which elements are highlighted while clicking through the app. This negatively affects the user experience and makes it frustrating to use the app on Android TV.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to propose a redesign of the app's user interface, specifically tailored for Android TV. This redesign should include the following improvements:
- Clear visual indicators for the currently highlighted element, such as distinct color changes, borders, or other visual cues to help users easily identify the selected item.
- Improved navigation and remote control support, ensuring seamless and intuitive interaction with the app using directional buttons (up, down, left, right) and other standard remote control buttons (select, back, etc.).
- Optimization of the layout for larger screens, taking into account the typical viewing distance of users on Android TV, ensuring that all text, images, and interface elements are easily visible and accessible.
- Implementing a simplified and more streamlined menu system to help users quickly find and access desired content or features.
Describe alternatives you've considered
One alternative solution could be to create a separate, dedicated Android TV app version, optimized specifically for Android TV devices. However, this might require additional development resources and could lead to inconsistencies between the Android and Android TV app versions.
Another alternative could be to implement a context-aware interface that adapts its layout, navigation, and appearance based on the type of device it's being used on. This would ensure a consistent experience across different devices but might require significant changes to the existing app's structure and design.
Additional context
Improving the app's usability on Android TV will not only enhance the user experience for existing users but also attract new users who primarily use their Android TV devices for consuming content. As Android TV continues to grow in popularity, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience on this platform is crucial for the app's success.
