Mini app developers 

What should we improve next?

Assume:
1. Back button
2. Haptics

Are coming soon. What else?

For mini apps on desktop anyway we can adjust it's sizing and aspect ratio 

Between browser ui, task bar and peripheral mini app webview component UI it's a really strange resolution for most users 

Samsung taco looking resolution (1:1.5)

But looks fine on 80% zoom or if you Fullscreen your browser (neither of which would be a typical users default)

Hard to handle when a sites in webview, even with safe Area details and feels more solvable at the client level than doing backflips in each implementation

Mini apps will eat the internet | Latest drop: /clankermon | Building : /miniapps /large /fctrivia /flappycaster /jeeves /source @degentip @playsource /jump

as close to 9:16 as possible 

scaling it down 80%, slimming the peripheral ui and stacking wallet switcher horizontally instead of vertically should help

if haptics are coming can we please have custom haptics & not just limited expo-haptics lib stuff?

example repos/libs:

Many such uses cases

Specifically thinking graph subscribers & other things branded haptics like arcs search pull to refresh

Can you explain the use case you have in mind?

This really starts to close the gap on not having our own native app

native push opt in 

Even if it's just "Mini app has sent you a notification" if passing directly is an app store no-no 

Current is fine for most, but for example - live event based mini apps, knowing the notification will reach the user would be great :)

really look forward to haptics. 

beyond that, it's the one you responded to this morning. flow from mini app link on the open web to farcaster sign up and then opening that mini app. anything to make that flow better.

The one we’ve already gotten is “We want to drop or whitelist the biggest $bracky holders/users”

This activity is in our bracket embedded wallets

Thinking about how to map /leverage mini app embedded wallets

Bracket app wallets for example have been doing hundreds of onchain txns per day and have 10s of thousands of dollars of token value but (1) they are not counting for our or protocol’s stats (2) they are not easily composable for other builders

someone-build

As an artist I would hope that there was a way for mini apps to be coded directly from a simple website page that allowed that user to still have attonomy of their artwork and maybe even earn from that landing page being opened. 

So I hope the @farcaster team or /someone-build an easy way(s) of sharing art for purchase on the timeline as a mini app esp for those of us who are still learning how to vibe code or code. 

Yet even with that having to FAFO each time with the websites and contracts makes it harder to get our works out there on the timeline. 

An easy plug-and-push solution if the creator was willing to let the artists be the owner of the mini app deployment as well (or take a small fee i.e. gas for each transaction) would be really amazing and kind for all of us.

TY pain of closing to go back for sure

Overall mute button since some are missing it. 

Would love again an easier way for artists to just add a website to share mints on the timeline.

Memory consumption. Android loads much slower since mini apps came around.

Farcaster Social Graph, like user data by fid, or connected wallets.
On server side I feel paying an api is totally fine, but on client side it should be directly available.

Haptics are great. Always improves the UX

Native push opt-in is crucial to ensure mini app notifications, especially for live events, reach users directly and effectively without any disruption.

now that many apps are out, will be nice if we could group them in folders!

What about offline support or session restore?
  Would love to hear your thoughts
