What stays on the bar

On a narrow screen, Pause, 1× through 16×, and Next decision stay on the top bar. The long label of Next decision hides, and the short label shows.

Inside the menu

At 560px and narrower, the ⋯ button appears. Inside it are Auto mode, ♪ Music, ✎ Pauses, ◐ Light or dark, Family and life, Spend & invest, and Exit. ✎ Pauses stops once at ages 5, 15, 30, 50, and 70.

Open the menu, then play

On a wide screen they sit in the bar

At 561px and wider, ⋯ is not shown. Auto mode, ♪ Music, ✎ Pauses, ◐ Light or dark, and Exit sit in the bar. Family and life and Spend & invest stay in the life screen and are not in that menu.

Narrower still

At 420px and narrower, the word on Pause hides and the mark remains. At 350px and narrower, the × on the speeds hides and the buttons get tighter. The controls remain.

Column order

At 800px and narrower, the life columns stack. The record and this year focus come first. Life map and Survival curve follow. They have moved down, not disappeared.

When something is hard to find

If ⋯ is missing, the width is wider than 560px. An open decision comes first. If Pause stays pressed, the years do not advance.

Keys

On a wide screen, keys 1 through 6 set the speed during a life, and Space is Pause. In a text field, or while a decision is open, those keys do something else.

Questions about the phone layout

Controls that look hidden on a narrow screen.

Where is auto mode?

At 560px and narrower it is Auto mode inside ⋯. On a wider screen it sits in the bar.

Did the map disappear?

At 800px and narrower it moves down, after the record and the focus.

Does speed change the lifespan?

No. Only how fast the years pass changes.
