To be honest, I've been so swamped with managing other platforms that I just couldn't get around to this. But since we are living in a mobile-first world, I decided to set it up like this:
The main feature here is the app-like bottom navigation bar. And yes, of course, it’s fixed to the bottom of the screen.
When it comes to Blogger, I think the biggest headache for everyone is the absolute lack of good free themes—especially for modern smartphones.
For this setup, I basically just grabbed a random free theme and hacked it myself. Usually, these free themes don't even come with a proper mobile view out of the box.
I assume it's because people think it's too much of a hassle, or maybe there just isn't an established standard for a "perfect" mobile Blogger page yet.
It also feels like designers simply don't prioritize it anymore.
Personally, when I think of mobile UI, it's all about a fixed top or bottom navigation bar. Everything else is secondary.
Beautiful hero images? Highly readable typography?
Wrong. It's all about operability.
A quick word to the folks at Google:
I understand this is a legacy product.
I understand it has a reputation for not being highly profitable.
But listen.
The fact is, we are at the absolute peak of the smartphone era.
And the fact is, Blogger has completely stopped evolving in terms of themes.
Efficiency and massive profits through AI? Yeah, I get that.
But isn't that exactly why you shouldn't abandon your existing foundational platforms?
Hold the line!
