Please one tiny search results fix

[jasonb1 7]

This is a super long standing issue. When the Android app is running in TV mode, the search results are limited to 15 or so and is a horizontal list.

Can we get one tiny fix so that it's like when running on a vertical screen or web browser where the list scrolls vertically and most critically, shows all results instead of cutting them off?

I just enabled screen rotation on my phone while horizontal the results are also how I'd like which is non limited and vertically scrolling.

Why is there seemingly special code to detect a TV screen ratio and/or running on a TV and severely limiting the feature for all these years?

Thanks.

It's pretty simple and independent of any sort of logging as it's just a UI issue. In any TV mode in the web based apps (not just the Android app it seems but I can make it happen by forcing TV mode when web connecting to my server), the search results are horizontal scrolling and limited to 15 or so and in other modes, it's a vertical scrolling list and gets all results. Can we just get it so that (at least optionally) we can get the vertical scroller for TV mode as well?

Oh, and this might have been mentioned on another thread, but when in TV mode there's an "on page" keyboard that's awkward/slow to use. Why can't it just like everywhere else with just a regular text input box and pop up the assigned system keyboard from there? Yes, it can cover the results while typing, but the user should be able to escape out of the keyboard popup to see them and then hit a button again to pop up the keyboard for more editing if needed.
