The workaround in the Android version is to switch to "static" fee slider (click the current Target's value to switch between the three).
That way, you can set it to 1, 2, 5, 10~ sat/vB even without the advanced payment options.
Lucius commented that he do use mobile Electrum wallet, probably he should understand what I meant if he is paying with lowest feerate when the mempool is not congested at all. I prefer to make bitcoin transaction on Sundays, because highest fee priority can come down to 1 sat/vbyte.
I use 1 sat/vbyte mostly on Sundays recently, there are times I will just want to use mobile Electrum directly, but the low fee priority which is estimated to be confirmed within the next 25 blocks, is not estimated accurately, it was around 3 sat/vbyte the time before the last time I tried it, it was around 2 sat/vbyte (slightly higher but not up to 3 sat/vbyte) the last Sunday, I had to open my desktop Electrum to set the fee to 1 sat/vbyte this last Sunday. The fee was estimated to be little, but mempool was indicating it to be littler which was 1 sat/vbyte for high fee priority.
I'm not suggesting making the app less secure or functional.
I'm just offering to make the mobile version more beautiful. Although I would also like to add an encryption/decryption function for message in mobile version.
Follow the advice above, you can contribute to Electrum UI looking better, it is open source.
