Don't fall off your chairs now but... The Mumsnet Talk iphone app has arrived!

Having used it for a little while, some points:

• mostly I LOVE IT :)
• Ends of thread titles are missed off
• Colouring of your posts and OP's posts would be useful
• When's the annoying Vodafone thing going? I have no interest in changing my mobile phone provider and keep clicking it by accident.
• it would be fabbo if you could send push notifications on new posts on threads you're on.

I seem to have to do more clicks on the app to get where i want to be than on the m. site.

for MN App 2.0 could you....

1. loose the splash screen it adds nothing and wastes time
2. have a way of seeing threads I'm on where others have replied and jumping to that section
3. do something about how it just throws your whole post away if you try to post and it is unable to connect. Most annoying and stops me wanting to use the app. Please fix it so that it saves your post.
4. add a refresh button please

I would be willing to pay an app with no ads/ much smaller text only ad.

wouldn't it be cool (but slightly creepy...) if it had a threads you might like button to pull up conversations you are likely to be interested in given the people you usually fight get into discussion with and the topics that you engage on.

Can someone post a link to the mobile version please, I can't find it. It's odd that the app doesn't work on iPad, they normally do and just need x2

It looks great, but functionality lets it down.

You've spoilt us all with the mobile site being so pretty damn good now, the app seems a bit simplistic in comparison. I've gone back to mobile for now, until an update is ready.

Good attempt, needs work.

i've got the app to keep up with threads i'm in etc. However (and i don't know if someone has posted this allready) but when i come back to a thread i've posted in i have to scan through pages and pages of posts. It would be alot beeter if it would take you to your most recent post

OK, have downloaded, but have reverted to mobile version because it is so mucg easier to read a thread from your last post without scrolling. With the app I can't check if a thread has been updated without going on to the thread and scrolling and checking. Which is a PITA. Unless I am not doing something properly?

I just downloaded it to my iPod touch and am sending this from it now. Now I have one more way to waste any spare time I might otherwise have

It's really hard to find my posts on a thread. Can they be highlighted in purple perhaps?

Viva - it won't work on mine either.

Is it meant to work on ipads as it doesn't seem to on mine?

Loving it soo far! Can't scroll and I haven't got my colour coding for thread leader or my last post. But still loving it so far!

Just bloody crashes for me too.

If you get it working, I promise I will post lovely things about how wonderful it is on here.

Love it! Thank you so much this is a great app!

Love it. So fast! It's on my front page already. Can see me being on the boards even more... Perhaps the ad banner should be for a divorce lawyer rather than vodafone....

Haven't used it much yet though am pleased with the potential. The thing I use most is "I'm On" and I find that harder on the app than on the mobile or ordinary site. On the app you don't see what's been newly added to your "I'm On" threads so don't know if it's worth clicking through to see new posts. Also if you do click through you get the whole long thread and you go to the beginning of the thread by default; as with others I then flipped the thread only to find that this affected my browsing through the ordinary website version too, which I didn't expect or want.

Apart from few things I don't like which I have already mentioned, it's working fine on my iPod touch 4th gen.

Can I add my comments too please?

like
It's very clear and easy to use
size of text
being able to see how many messages in a thread in active convos
colours (quite like the purple)
buttons at the bottom
ease of smilies
Speed, it's much quick than the mobile web page
My Topics

dislike
there's too much blank space on the screen eg, after the posters name when if a thread,
The banners are too big at the top and bottom, much bigger than email and when browsing. It means that when a thread is open almost half of the screen is lost to banners. It only needs to be tightened up by a couple of pixels, but would make a big difference to the reading area
It takes too many clicks to get to a particular topic, when you're in a thread could the top banner be a link too? I realise you can use the Topics option at the bottom but it's not always obvious which section they've been put in. To get to Style and Beauty it's 2 clicks, a scroll and another click.
Can it mirror some of my website settings, eg highlighting the OP and viewing everything on one page?
There's no refresh option when in a topic or a thread
Have just found add to my topics, really like this! but can it be on the bottom rather than Topics [picky]

Only found it this morning, (that'll teach me to ignore the sticky threads) but it's already on my front page! Thanks

Works fine on my ipod touch.

Have had a few days now to play about with it. Want to tell my plus and minus points.

Plus
• like remaining logged in and the ease of being able to see the threads i'm on.
• like how quickly the next pages load

Minus
• hate how on a big thread there are no page numbers so have to kind of guess where i finished reading the thread. Needs more than just previous and more.

• the text on the active convos could be smaller as i dont like not being able to see the whole thread title.

• also dont like not being able to nip back to look at the thread while in the middle of writing a message. I'm on a long running thread and sometimes forget who said what , and want to refer back to the messages.

But overall i like it! Looking forward to the update!

I like it. Love the colour but it's my favourite colour so I am biased. Needs bookmarks and needs a 59p app with no ads

Am I the only one who can't open links? Or is there a trick I'm missing?
