Pretty please. Have been asking for ages.
C'mon Tech.

Don't make me defect

Will you have super-duper extra-strength iphone apps so you can delete threads and expel trolls while in the bath?

Ack it's taking a bit longer than we thought to develop - but we are in the back and forth ironing out bugs and glitches bit so it shouldn't be too long now. (If you detect a note of desperation in my voice, you're not wrong.)

We are building an app which will work on the iPhone and Android. It will work on the iPad too, albeit in iPhone x2 mode.

It doesn't currently support turning to landscape, but the fonts are a pretty good size and should be clearly visible to most people.

As for when, it'll still be a while I'm afraid. However, we do have a Mobile version of the site up and running which should work well on most devices.

We will release it all as soon as we can. Watch this space.

Do netmums have one then, hun?

MmeLindt · 05/10/2010 13:04

Any news then? Dare I ask if there is going to be an iPad app next? Or will it work on both?

can i just ask - will it be possible for the page to turn sideways?

i use mn on the ipod, and my eyes are too old to cope with how small the text is if i keep the page upright, or i have to keep scrolling from left to right, which makes me travel sick!

And Android...?

It's a work very much in progress. We weren't happy with the first version so we're revising it. It's a complicated project and involves several people on three continents, so far. It's not like we're holding it back! We are really keen to make it available as soon as we can.

This has been going on since March when Justine announced that MN had hooked up with Vodafone to develop an app.
