"The Mobile Polish Update"

• Mobile Results Overhaul: The multiplayer results screen now displays all three vote columns side-by-side on mobile, so you no longer have to scroll to hit "Next Scenario."
• Lobby Hierarchy Fix: Redesigned the room code screen with a clearer visual hierarchy — the heading is now prominent with the code displayed in a bordered box below it.
• iOS Safari Fix: Fixed a viewport bug where content could hide behind the iOS address bar, and eliminated the "elastic bounce" that interfered with snap scrolling.
• Chrome Text Squash Fix: Removed the experimental text-balance CSS property that was causing text to visually compress on certain mobile browsers.
• Mobile Spacing: Tightened spacing between questions and answer buttons on smaller screens (iPhone SE, etc.) so everything fits without scrolling within a single scenario.
• Toast Notifications: Reduced padding and shadow on mobile so toasts no longer overflow off the edge of the screen.
