Description
The screen resolutions of current smartphones are getting higher and higher, the current app settings only offer the native settings of the smartphone besides the usual 16:9 resolutions. If you want to keep the aspect ratio of the smartphone, you have to select one of the native resolutions, but this leads to high streaming requirements at high resolutions.
To reduce the streaming requirements and keep the aspect ratio of the smartphone, it would be good to either offer downscaled values of the native smartphone resolution (0.5x, 0.75x) or a possibility to set a custom resolution (as it is already possible in the desktop app).

Research direction
Review the existing desktop app's custom resolution behavior and the Android app's current resolution settings. Determine whether the Android setting should offer 0.5x/0.75x native resolutions or arbitrary custom values; done means preserving the phone's aspect ratio while allowing lower streaming resolutions.
