Phone resolution smaller in Roblox?

Please. The graphics slider is locked at 1 on mobile because it’s assumed all mobile devices can’t handle anything above that (and maybe this was true when ROBLOX first came to mobile – I don’t know), but I don’t see why I should be locked at 1 on mobile when I’m able to pump my low spec laptop all the way up to 10 if I want. Default to autodetect and then let the user choose whatever graphics level they want.

The device doesn’t have to be able to support level 10 for tweaking graphics to be useful – just good enough to push to higher graphics levels in general. I might want to increase my graphics level to 2 or 3 in a competitive game to increase render distance so non-mobile players don’t have as much of a sight advantage over me.

I’m assuming you have an Android phone – there the rendering behavior is different from iOS (and less optimal). It’s harder to get a good balance between quality & performance on Android because the variance in both performance and DPI is just insane and there’s no pattern to it – could have a super high-res phone with a super-bad GPU and vice versa.

(and before it’s mentioned, user resolution slider is not the solution – the game should work well out of the box)

Oh, may bad then. What I suggested still applies because I might want to go 1 or 2 above the auto-detected graphics level for higher render distance. I also did some searching and found a thread that pointed out that switching graphics levels produced a lag spike. I might want to manually disable auto so I don’t have to run into that issue when playing anything competitive.
