<br>Hi guys!<br>
<br>
great job! congrats!<br>
<br>
Just some tips from UI:<br>
<br>
1) IMHO you should consider removing the Manaos icon from the toolbar.
Is a toolbar, so you should not have the application item there. that
should give some more space for the input URL field.<br>
<br>
*Question : do you implement that feature the default browser has : the
input field takes all the toolbar espace when selected ( v keyboard
visible ) ?<br>
<br>
2) Loading page warning should use the system "loading something
warning" that will make the user experience much more pleasurable.<br>
<br>
3) I think it would be good to follow the ui guidelines, so I would
recommend to avoid that custom look on the toolbar, but that is open to
the developer!<br>
<br>
<br>
Best Regards !<br>
