What happened?

The Reply app uses a Navigation Rail on large screen devices. However, it even uses it on a small screen device in landscape mode. But due to the custom layout of items in the navigation rail, the items don't fit into the screen on small devices as seen in the picture below:

Moreover, since this is an official sample app, it should follow the Material 3 guidelines which state that:

Navigation rails shouldn't be used for:
Small screen sizes

If possible, then I would like to work on this issue. But would like some guidance on whether to remove the navigation rail in landscape mode on small screen sizes and use a navigation bar or to fix the layout as per the screen size.
