Mobile Features

In my mobile testing the last month or so I have racked up 42 GB of texture data and stuff on my iPhone. Currently the only option my phone gives to delete the build up (from exploring different regions, including shopping events) is to delete the app all together and reinstall it to start fresh. I am asking/ suggesting that the mobile app get a button that will allow a delete/dump/clear of all the texture etc data related to sims visited, and old chat or IM data so the app doesn’t get stopped due to insufficient storage, which is the warning I got. If possible, a button to target sim data from sims that were only visited once, as example. Or to target old IM’s/chats that haven’t been active in days, etc. I would take an ALL button right now, so I can get back to exploring without having to do a total delete.

Could be in the Settings menu, plenty of space there! Basically, in the viewer we have controls for very disparate types of sound that don't have a good device-based mapping. Per the attached piccie, could we get some sliders like that? Or at lease a toggle for the ones we dont' want coming out of our phones? \o/

Show an avatar’s Display Name in the Mobile Viewer. Provide a General Setting preference for showing display names, usernames, group titles, like in the Desktop Viewer. The mobile viewer currently only uses usernames. I’d like to see Display Names!

As an alternative to TOTP for MFA, make the Second Life app on Android and Apple devices act as a MFA factor for logging in: Log in on Second Life app, in settings add the current device as a trusted factor for MFA When logging in on a new (different) device, and periodically, if enabled like stated above, send a notification to the trusted device asking if the user is trying to log in on another device, and have the user pick a number that corresponds to one showing on the other device's screen. Adobe, Microsoft and Google all three uses this for securing logins while making it easier to use than reading and typing a code in time before it changes.

Currently menus from objects aren't displayed so we can use sit menus for instance. Or teleport menus. Any menus. Having menus would improve interactivity.

On mobile, I found the separate screen to view chat not very helpful. You had to keep going to that separate screen, losing the 3D view of surrounding avatars, to see if chat was continued. A way to see what is being said nearby, say in bubbles over avatars heads (that fade after a while), and a simple type in box visible on the 3D screen to enter nearby chat would be more useful. It also looks like chat coming from objects and attachments, even translators, is not showing in nearby chat. All things that show in nearby chat on desktop ought also to show on mobile.

It would be good if we got confirmation when teleporting the same way we do with the regular desktop viewer. It's very easy to mistouch on mobile. Also a way to type the address, it's annoying to be stuck with a list of destinations.

A drop down menu to choose the character you want to login and the account info fills in automatically after the first time. And maybe some day allowing to run two accounts at the same time. Thank you.

I hope you soon add the option to access the marketplace through the app without needing to access the website, so that it is fully optimized for in-app purchases, as happens in other games and virtual worlds.
