Ryan95 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Does anyone else think this forum should be in app form? I mean it's ok at the mo on my smartphone but dragging the screen from left to right to read every sentence is a little annoying. What does everyone think?

Cosmo Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 No, really. An app with push notifications would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flayer Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 How about it sends you a notification via text every time an irrelevant new thread is created? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gunns5 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) On topicif it ONLY showed Randy Lahey /ITW_2012 threads, then I'd buy it, otherwise no. Edited January 24, 2012 by gunns5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 If you are using the iPhone it loads in mobile format, so you don't have to drag the page from side to to side.Nokia too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan95 Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 I fail to see how this topic is irrelevant flayer, any chance to improve this forum surely improves the community as a whole. Also why does it seem that their is always one with the sarcasm, not helping at all just spouting rubbish. Can't wait for your thread flayer i may just reply to it by saying irrelevant topic regardless of what it may be. Maybe if the app comes with an arsehole blocker we may never need to hear from you again :-). Thanks i may try that browser, thanks for the useful info friend.

sailaway Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I-phone is sufficient as is,unfortunately I have crushed my second one,so I'm using a 4gDroid EVO-shift,and occasionally a blackberry,Skyfire and FireFox are two superior browsers that aren't a royal pain in the ass to deal with.Don't know what your screen size is,hope that helps.

scottish nutter Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 android on my galaxy s2 lets me zoom in and out so i can view the whole page without having to scroll from side to side, id imagine the iphone would allow you to do the same?

Ryan95 Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 That's strange that ur galaxy s2 allows you to do that mine doesn't,it lets me do it on most websites just not this one :-(. Thanks sailaway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montrealer Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 You can use the Invision power app from the appstore to browse the forum.That's what I use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 You can use the Invision power app from the appstore to browse the forum.That's what I use.Unfortunately, it doesn't seem the Invision-developed app is still available; when I got my new iPhone a month ago the IPB app didn't carry over in iCloud, and I can't find it in the app store. I'm currently using a third party app called IPB Buddy, and it seems to function more or less the same. I recommend this for any iPhone users for browsing the forum, works great!

Tyler Drama Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 When I go to the site on my Droid, it takes me straight to the mobile site. Easy to view, just can't see the emoticons list and any comments or statuses on profiles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highvoltage Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 If there was a way to serve ads through it, we'd be using Tapatalk already.It sucks, I want to give users the best experience we can, but we have to protect our paltry revenue stream too.
