# 4. UI/UX & Responsive Layout Refinements

- Status Bar Spacing: Added top status bar insets to prevent back navigation buttons and step badges from being obscured by camera notches or notification panels.

- Responsive Action Buttons: Refactored the bottom navigation controls ("Previous" and "Next"/"Done") to use balanced layout weights and spacing for consistent touch targets across all device aspect ratios.

- Theme Adjustments:

 - Set Green Apple as the default app theme.
