Summary

Keep teleported dialogs and notifications inside iPhone safe areas, with scrollable report content and reachable, stacked mobile actions. Routine room recovery uses a delayed inline status instead of disconnect/join toasts. Reconnection failures still show an error.

Default the watch-party panel to Basic, with a saved Advanced controls switch for host tuning and participant drift/quality diagnostics. Reports now include viewport, safe-area and visibility measurements, with background/resume and connection events in bounded diagnostic history.

Verification

539 tests pass (153 server/Node and 386 frontend), plus lint and production build. Mobile-width browser checks verify report header/actions remain visible and copying works. Regression tests cover recovery timing, diagnostic allowlisting, and Basic/Advanced preferences. Physical iPhone safe-area behavior still needs device verification.

Safe-area sizing follows https://webkit.org/blog/7929/designing-websites-for-iphone-x/.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The application adds delayed reconnect status, suppresses reconnect notifications, records connection diagnostics, captures mobile environment data, applies safe-area layout rules, and adds an advanced party mode for optional controls and playback details.

Changes

Mobile recovery and controls

Layer / File(s) Summary
Reconnection recovery flow
src/utils/connectionstatus.js, src/store/modules/synclounge/..., src/socket.js, src/App.vue, src/__tests__/mobile-recovery.test.js
Disconnects start delayed recovery state. Reconnects rejoin without the “Joined room” notification and clear recovery state after completion or failure. The app displays a reconnecting status after 1.5 seconds.
Mobile diagnostics and safe-area layout
src/main.js, src/utils/problemreport.js, src/assets/css/style.css, src/components/ReportProblem.vue, src/components/TheSettingsDialog.vue, src/__tests__/mobile-recovery.test.js
The app records visibility, network, and connection events. Problem reports include mobile environment data. Dialogs, fullscreen overlays, snackbars, and report actions use mobile safe-area and layout rules.
Advanced party controls
src/store/modules/settings/*, src/components/TheSidebarRight.vue, src/components/UserList.vue, src/__tests__/mobile-recovery.test.js
The settings store adds an advancedPartyMode flag. Sidebar controls, drift details, and playback health details render only when advanced mode is enabled.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 43b1e

Reconnect status and mobile diagnostic reporting changes are implemented, but key visible reconnect behavior and browser API fallback cases lack coverage. This is a bounded regression risk rather than evidence of a current failure.

Test the visible reconnect behavior.

This test calls only beginRecovery and finishRecovery. It cannot detect a reconnect toast regression or verify that the delayed inline status appears in the UI.

Exercise the disconnect and reconnect flow. Assert that quick recovery does not create a notification and that persistent recovery shows then clears the inline status.

As per path instructions, tests must “assert externally observable behavior.”

Cover missing mobile API fallbacks.

This test supplies visualViewport and a nonempty safe-area value. It does not verify the fallback path used on browsers without visualViewport or when a safe-area CSS property is empty.

Add cases that assert no failure, visualViewport: false, and '0px' safe-area values.

As per path instructions, tests must “cover malformed and boundary inputs.”
