You can set the left and right margins on the horizontal screen with the bottom slider,
and the top and bottom margins on the vertical screen with the right slider.

Precautions/Contact
1. Sound Playback Issues
To prevent sound playback in the background status, GotoBrowser has its own system to play audio files instead of browsers.
As a result, in some situations, the voice may be played in a different way than the original KanColle game.
- Volume control does not reflect volume control in real time
- Some ship voices are suspended while another ship voice is running during battle.
- The BGM does not stop after the end of the battle or before going to the next node after the ship drop
If you think there is a bug other than above situation, please contact to the developer.
2. Limited Interface Issue
Some functions may not work due to limitations of Android itself, which does not support mouseover event on the screen.
- The effect of pressing each button in the port does not disappear or improvement arsenal button does not appear
- Alert is not displayed when the limit is reached during development/construction
If you think there is a bug other than above situation, please contact to the developer.
3. About (SLOW) Game Speed Issue
Due to the limitations of the built-in webview, GotoBrowser is usually slower than normal web browsers like Chrome, while it may vary from device to device.
If the speed is more important than other add-ons feature, I recommend using a normal browser.
