Problem – the Notes app isn't mobile friendly
Let's start by quantifying the problem. We need to explore how well (or not) the application behaves on a mobile device. This is simple to do:
- Start the Notes app. Determine the IP address of the host system.
- Using your mobile device, connect to the service using the IP address, and browse around the Notes application, putting it through its paces.
Another way to approach this is to use your desktop browser, resizing it to be very narrow. That way, you can mimic a smart phone screen's small size, showing you many of the user interface difficulties, even if it doesn't otherwise behave as a mobile app.
You may also find development-oriented browser extensions to assist. For example, in the Chrome Developer Tools, you can view the current webpage as if it were any of several popular mobile devices.
To see a real user interface problem on a mobile screen, edit views/noteedit.ejs to change this line:
