Never. Going. Back.

I LIKE the app.

Ghostsgowoooh · 17/10/2013 10:28

I love the app but only on my reeaally slow basic tablet as mob mumsnet takes ages to load and the app is much quicker.

Cant believe you lot have only just discovered mob mumsnet though. Grin
I've been using it on my phone for ages now.

TEErickOrTEEreat · 16/10/2013 17:26

That's okay.

I could have sworn I put a Halloween Grin at the bottom of that!

SPsTombRaidingWithCliff · 16/10/2013 17:14

I only ever use the mobile site.

MN discriminate against Windows phones so no app. Cant even upload pictures or change name unless on laptop.

I am so happy Grin

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I hate the app, it has always made me feel left out and now I can see things!!

YoniMatopoeia · 16/10/2013 12:58

Though I do miss discussions of the day/most active

YoniMatopoeia · 16/10/2013 12:57

I have never tried the app (android)

I always use the mobile site when my lap top is not fired up.

TEErickOrTEEreat · 16/10/2013 12:53

I've been going on about the mobile site for years!

The app is crap.

Ilovemydogandmydoglovesme · 15/10/2013 23:55

I've always used the mobile site until tonight when I tried the app for the first time. It looks awesome! I found that the mobile site kept crashing and turning all the text on the website into one long list of Times font. It was driving me mad.

The only thing I've noticed so far is that the ops subsequent posts aren't highlighted but I can live with that. If I could have an app that did away with my fat fingers that'd be perfect. Wink

I'll see how it goes.

KatieScarlett2833 · 15/10/2013 23:29

Whaaat!!!
I don't have to suffer the app??

I totally love you for pointing this out. For months I have been using the crap app on my phone and it's been driving me crazy. Am very happy and am off to delete the app.....

I hate the app. The app is crap!

I reckon MNHQ ought to promote it more, but then again maybe they don't want everyone on here instead of the main site (advertisers, sponsors, wink wink)

For me on my ancient iPad it loads waaay faster, probably because of lack of ads and pictures. And I like the lack of said ads Smile

I miss the I Started button though. Agree about the clicky emoticons, that would be awesome!

The parentheses worked too!

PoppyWearer · 15/10/2013 21:29

Wow. I liiiiiiiike! Thanks

SconeRhymesWithGone · 15/10/2013 21:26

It is also easier to switch to your alter ego(s) name change on the mobile site. Halloween Wink

PoppyWearer · 15/10/2013 21:24

Thank you for this thread.

Time to delete the app...

ihatethecold · 15/10/2013 21:23

I love it when people link stuff from the app and it takes me to the mobile site.
I had no idea how to access it. Confused

Passmethecrisps · 15/10/2013 21:19

All I ever use is the mobile site. T'is awesome.

When I do go onto full grown MN I feel confused and a bit overwhelmed
