    I notice that

        Syncthing-For
    k
    is one of the first pieces of text in the first screenshot. With the k on its own line like that. Not usually something I’d comment on, but if you’re showing off a redesign…

      That app itself also has some of the most revolting UI I've seen in a modern Android app (Vertical gradient filled buttons with thick gray strokes surrounded by not-quite-Material UI widgets, in a nonsensical custom control they had to go out of their way to make rather than just use a dropdown). Android developers really just don't care.

        its not an app you open much. I'd prefer them to spend time on the actual functionality

          Good design is part of the functionality.

            What word would you use to differentiate design and non-design functionality?

              "can I do something [at all]" vs "how [easy] can I do something"

                vs “can I even determine whether or not I can do something”
