A lot of these aren't "small screen" problems, just bad/hacky coding, not doing things like apple recommends or not handling some edge cases, so they're simply just bugs.

Clubhouse - maybe it's an issue that the UI on the right isn't disappearing completely, but maybe that's by design. Anyway, nothing is clipped/truncated

Spotify - the "now plating" bar's height isn't added to the scrollview's content inset. Not a small screen issue since it's on the vertical axis and content is scrollable.

Globe Telecom - yes, this could count as one (with the tabbar).

CloudMd - that's just probably hardcoding the status bar's height, nothing is truncated/out of view.

Foodpanda - that side menu is actually scrollable. y letter is cut off, ok. Nothing you can't access.

Google Maps - this is a design decision, same ratio of map/list height on my iPhone XS. You can either view the map or the list in full screen

Headspace - navigation/status bar issue, just bad coding local bank - yes, this counts as well

Lalamove - yes, 2 textfields are too much

Shortcuts - scroll up?

I do agree that small screen devices aren't getting enough focus on this regard.
