Imagine if software developers at least *tried* to make modern phones usable with one hand?

I couldn't find a modern small phone that could fit all my requirements (mainly an OLED/AMOLED display), and also I'm too frugal so I don't want to spend extra money if I already have a decent device. One handed mode implementation in modern Android is incredibly basic and very bad, so I shitty coded my way through to make my own makeshift solution which is much better :) It's much more comfortable to use now, and I don't have to sacrifice any battery capacity and screen size. I wish modern app developers and Android developers at least tried to implement something similar to my solution since modern phones are way too large to comfortably use with one hand.

Found this beautiful subreddit and decided to share. Standalone spare battery charger/powerbank from a second phone with broken touchscreen and a board from a power bank with a busted battery I made back a few years ago

Me and my dad bought the same model of a phone back in 2015. Each phone came with 2 batteries (one 3k mAh and one 6k mAh), but it didn't come with a separate charger for the second battery. My classmate broke the touchscreen back when I was at school, so I decided to gut it. Hot glue for structural integrity (bare plastic frame was very flimsy on its own), a little bit of black electrical tape to hide all the crimes against technology that I committed that day, and a board from an old power bank that stopped holding charge.

^(Also check out my cat :3)
