Feature description

Currently, the Lists used throughout the Settings menus rely exclusively on vertical spacing (padding) to visually separate individual List items.

While Material Design 3 guidelines do encourage using white space to group content and reduce visual clutter, the settings menus utilize both Headline text (e.g., "Video and audio") and Supporting text (e.g., "Playback, resolution..."). Because of this higher information density and the presence of Leading visual elements (the icons), relying solely on spacing weakens the visual hierarchy. It makes it slightly harder for users to rapidly scan the page and clearly distinguish the boundaries of individual touch targets.

Suggested Implementation

Integrate the Material 3 Divider component between the List items within the settings menus.

Specifically, introducing a subtle, theme-aware Inset divider (anchored to the text block, bypassing the leading icon) or a Full-width divider would align the app more closely with standard system-level M3 implementations (like the native Android Settings app). This will significantly improve scannability and structure.
