'Appy days - Android, iPhone and iPad apps released

It's not fair! I can't even see the emoticons...

Will check again now. I WANT WEIRD EMOTICONS!!!!!!!

My active isn't updating!
I did wonder if it was the quietest night on here ever.

I'm feeling a bit sorry for darrenmumsnet...

I do like the look of the app, I really do. And when threads are small with very few emoticons it does work.

Hope you're not too upset by the criticism darrenmumsnet.

I quite like the look of the app, however it keeps crashing on me when I scroll to the bottom of a page and is chucking me out of my postnatal group. Oh, and what's with the weird emoticons?

I wondered why sometimes there was a random blank space at the bottom of some posts! (Penny drops) obviously the poster had added something in brackets at the bottom that the app 'deleted'. How annoying! I persevered with the app despite its faults before the update but I think I'll be going back to the mobile site, sorry but it just isn't usable (mainly because of the new smilies if I'm honest but the constant crashing doesn't help)

Yes - why do >< brackets now have magic invisibility powers?

Agree about the . This one just isn't cheeky enough

Oh, and my hmph in < just disappeared from my post.

HMPH.

Oh rarely my old iPhone app did that thing where the header would get stuck! Used to drive me nuts as I then couldn't add any messages and I would have to delete the app and reinstall it to start again! So far though the new one hasn't done it for me......

The smilies have changed!

I do not like them. In particular the grin looks as if it is polite. I like the old one, it looks like it is having a damn good cackle.

And wtaf do these ones even mean

And the heart...?

Please - can we have bookmarks?

Soooo disappointed that the iPhone app has kept its glitches - can't add a message, and the first topic I look at, eg Becoming a parent, stays as the page title wherever I am, eg S&B.

Ok, I'm still struggling with the new app . My thoughts.....

1. It randomly crashes. Well not that randomly - it is every time I try to go into certain threads.

1. I do not like these emoticons: . 'Hmm' NEEDS a raised eyebrow! And 'confused' looks like it should be 'I haven't had any sleep'. And what's wrong with the 'biscuit'? Is that supposed to be a tongue poking out for no comment or something? Otherwise I believe Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry would comment that it is a very uneven bake to the biscuit .

1. For some reason now if I put something in pointy brackets it removes it from my post? I used to put loads of highly witty and interesting things in pointy brackets

Layout and usage I'm ambivalent as to whether it is any better or worse. Looks a bit cheaper to my mind (can apps look cheap? Maybe more dated?) but ultimately mainly works the same, apart from my above points.

Look forward to a new update.....

I cant get in to any threads , just keeps crashing and chucking me out of MN :-( im using safari on iPhone until you announce a new upgrade!

I did like what I saw re thread title layout etc, not tried emoticons yet.

Much better looking than the website

The emoticons are weird but I'll cope.

It is a bit inclined to randomly crash. I've only had the iPad for 10 days though so it could just be my incompetence!

Oh dear ! I don't do change very well. I m not sure i like the new layout and format. As I type the little i icon is covering the text in the top right corner so I cannot see if I ve gotten a full stop in.
It s crashed 3 times as I ve tried to post this and read the tread .... Annoying [not sure which emoticon to use]

Would like a bookmark yes please
Prefer old biccies this looks odd as does that!
I preferred how it 'looked ' before but I ll try it I it would please stop crashing

Same here Pourquoimoi!

Testing. I like the way it looks. Has crashed a couple of times on me but sometimes that's iPhones fault with new apps I think.

??????????

Ok, so it Appears I can add a message. But I don't have a biscuit or a bear?

Testing testing

Ditto Poirquoimoi

Amusingly I have been unable to read the whole of this thread as it has crashed 4 times in a row when I've scrolled down to the bottom.

That aside, I am not yet convinced on the new look, it'll take some getting used to.

See, it's the fucking biscuit on "normal" mumsnet. It doesn't look like a biscuit on the app. Me not like change.

^^^This

What is it?

My iPad version keeps kicking me out when I try to scroll down the thread. Also and more worryingly as this could cause some major misunderstanding. The emoticons show up as different things on the web based version and I have no actual idea what one of them is. Erm hang on and I'll go back on the app.........
