Widget Forward/Backward and scrubber size/design issue
-
I cannot be the only person who finds the forward and backwards buttons on the widget to be way to small and close to the scrubber. 99% of the time I am trying to skip forward or backward. I’m rarely manually scrubbing by using the line in the widget. However I often accidentally tap on the scrubber line while trying to hit one of the buttons which makes me completely lose my place in the podcast. Are the size of the elements something that Pocket Casts can change or is this a limitation of Android? Thank you, would love to hear other people’s thoughts on this.

The widget layout is something Pocket Casts controls, so it’s not purely an Android limitation. That said, changing element sizes and spacing is a design decision the team would need to make deliberately. I’ve added your feedback to our ideas board for the team to consider. The more people who raise this, the better its chances of being prioritised.
