Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

mWeb splash screen displays the iconmark logo at a very small size.

What is the root cause of that problem?

Size is set to 52x52 for devices with width 479 px and less.

App/web/index.html

Lines 91 to 96 in 937c418

	@media screen and (max-width: 479px) {
	.splash-logo > svg {
	width: 52px;
	height: 52px;
	}
	}

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We can update the width and height to some value decided by the design team.

@media screen and (max-width: 479px) {
    .splash-logo > svg {
        width: 80px;
        height: 80px;
    }
}

Else, we can also use the same size on all devices.

Then, we'll not need the max-width or min-width conditional items.

I kind of think the best solution is to just get rid of any mobile-only styles here and just use the same thing we use on desktop.

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

mWeb splash screen displays the iconmark logo at a very small size

What is the root cause of that problem?

We have different svg sizes defined for small screens here

App/web/index.html

Lines 91 to 96 in 937c418

	@media screen and (max-width: 479px) {
	.splash-logo > svg {
	width: 52px;
	height: 52px;
	}
	}

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We should have the same logo size for all devices, we will:

Remove the width limit for the desktop size svg style here:

App/web/index.html

Lines 84 to 89 in 937c418

	@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
	.splash-logo > svg {
	width: 104px;
	height: 104px;
	}
	}

Remove the mobile size svg style here:

App/web/index.html

Line 91 in 937c418

@media screen and (max-width: 479px) {

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

mWeb splash screen displays the iconmark logo at a very small size

What is the root cause of that problem?

The iconmark logo appears very small because the width (52px) and height (52px) values set in the media query for screens with a max-width of 479px.

App/web/index.html

Lines 91 to 96 in 937c418

	@media screen and (max-width: 479px) {
	.splash-logo > svg {
	width: 52px;
	height: 52px;
	}
	}

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

The iconmark logo should resize with each screen to avoid the iconmark logo being too big or too small.

// App/blob/main/web/index.html#L90
+.splash-logo {
+   position: absolute;
+   left: 50%;
+   top: 50%;
+   transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
+   text-align: center;
+}

// App/blob/main/web/index.html#L91
@media screen and (max-width: 479px) {
   .splash-logo > svg {
-    width: 52px;
+    width: 50%;
-    height: 52px;
+    height: 50%;
+    max-width: 208px;
   }
 }

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

splash screen displays the iconmark logo at a very small size

What is the root cause of that problem?

These two styles change the size of the icon based on screen size. The icon's size should be constant for any screen size.

App/web/index.html

Lines 84 to 96 in 937c418

	@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
	.splash-logo > svg {
	width: 104px;
	height: 104px;
	}
	}
	@media screen and (max-width: 479px) {
	.splash-logo > svg {
	width: 52px;
	height: 52px;
	}
	}

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

These two styles should be removed and replaced with one style that covers all screen sizes. This change will address this bug and ensure a consistent UX going forward.

Remove lines 84-96 and replace it with:

//App/web/index.html#L84
.splash-logo > svg {
                width: 104px;
                height: 104px;
}

@ahmedGaber93 Why did you choose a proposal with hard-coded width and height? It's not good because it doesn't resize well on small devices.

[ahmedGaber93]

I don't think we need to make it resizable based on screen dimensions like what we do in medium and large screen on web, the icon size is fixed, and the green background fit the screen

[huult]

While a fixed solution might be okay, I believe a responsive icon mark logo will improve the user experience, making it feel more like a native platform.

[shawnborton]

I really don't think we need multiple sizes for this. I think the size we already use on desktop/web will look great on mobile, and this way we don't need to maintain multiple sizes across devices.

This a small change in the icon size. I think no need for regression test.
