Mobile optimization: bottom-sheet, gestures and dark mode

How Arcili behaves on mobile: bottom-sheet for map and property data, pull-to-refresh on lists, the Android back button, haptic feedback and light/dark theme.

Updated 6 June 2026

Arcili is a real app on your phone — not just the website in a smaller window. Layout, gestures and navigation are built for touch, so you can look up properties, value homes and chat with the agents in the field. Here are the differences you'll meet on mobile, and how to use them.

1Bottom-sheet instead of a sidebar

On desktop, property and map data sit in a panel off to the side. On mobile the same data slides up from the bottom in a bottom-sheet — a drag panel that sits over the map without hiding it completely.

Property on the map

Drag handle at the top — drag to adjust Frederiksberg Allé 12 · 1820 Frederiksberg C Area, year built, owner and valuations

  • Drag the handle up to see more content, or drag down to close the sheet.
  • Drag the sheet far enough down and it closes with a light haptic cue.
  • The sheet content scrolls on its own — the page behind is locked, so you don't scroll the wrong thing.
Tip

You don't have to hit the handle precisely. Tap the dimmed backdrop outside the sheet to close it instantly.

2Pull-to-refresh and list scrolling

Lists — properties, companies, the home screen, person and company details — refresh with the familiar mobile gesture.

  • Pull the list down from the top and release. A circular indicator shows when the refresh fires, and the data is fetched again.
  • Scrolling uses the device's native scroll — the same inertia and bounce as in other apps, not a custom container.
Note

Pull-to-refresh works from the top of the list. If you've scrolled down, scroll all the way up first so the gesture catches.

3Hardware back button and gestures

On Android the hardware back button drives navigation in a fixed priority, so you never drop out of the app unexpectedly:

  1. If a sheet, modal or overlay is open, the back button closes that first.
  2. Otherwise it goes one step back in your history.
  3. If you're at the very start, the app is minimized (rather than closed).

The same applies to panels you open yourself — for example quick actions from the button in the bottom bar: back closes them instead of leaving the page.

4Haptic feedback

The mobile app gives haptic cues (small vibrations), so actions feel physical:

  • A light tap on tab switches, selections and when you open a sheet.
  • A medium tap when you press a button or confirm an action.
  • A success tap when something is saved, and an error tap if it fails.

Haptics run only in the native app — in a mobile browser they're switched off automatically, so nothing breaks.

5Light and dark theme

You choose the look under SettingsAppearance.

Appearance

Light · Dark

  • Tap Light or Dark to switch instantly — the choice applies across the whole app.
  • The theme is remembered on the device, so the app opens in the mode you last picked.
  • In the same section you'll find Language (Dansk / English) just above the theme.
Tip

Dark theme is easy on the eyes in the field at night. The map gets a muted, contrast-friendly palette so data stays clear.
