Would you like to test an early version of our Talk app?

Hello,
We've been working on a test version of a new Talk app and could do with your help putting it through it's paces.

If you have an iPhone with iOS8 (sorry no iPods, iPads or android for now) and you'd like a sneak preview then head on over to this sign up page and sign up so we can send you an invite (it doesn't have to be your Mumsnet email address just one you can access).

The app is very much a beta version and everything may not work perfectly. If you find something that's broken or think there is something missing, please let us know.

Ideally we'd like you to use the app to read and post on threads and do whatever you normally do in Talk. Please note, this version of the app is LIVE and anything you post will appear on the Mumsnet site for all to see.

At the mo this is for registered mumsnetters only so if you can't see the sign up page please check you are logged in.

Thanks in advance for your help - looking forward (I think) to your feedback.

Can I ask a couple of questions about the new app?

  1. Is there a discussions of the day tab? I quite liked that function.
  1. Clicking the ACTIVE button has a limited amount of active threads, whereas before it used to go on for as long as you had time to be idle on MN!
  1. I can't see any way to view my personal messages, is that still possible in the new app?

Thanks in advance, and apologies if I am covering old ground, but I can't see these questions anywhere else Hmm

All isn't working for me either after password reset. It says "I appear to be offline."

EquinoxEclipse · 21/08/2015 09:06

Yeah the new app has been completely down throughout.

JonSnowKnowsSomeThings · 20/08/2015 17:11

New app isn't working at all anymore all the screens are just blank. Can't log off or view anything

MummySparkle · 20/08/2015 11:16

Posted that from mobile, so it seems to be working now

But doesn't work with emoticons or pictures

MummySparkle · 20/08/2015 11:15

Hi MNHQ im on version 1.0 (11) on an iPhone 5s

acatcalledjohn · 19/08/2015 23:06

I am too. Tonight's password reset has not sorted access, sadly.

I suppose the test app is the least of MNHQ's worries though...

MrsWembley · 19/08/2015 20:37
Sad

Didn't think it would be possible but I'm also really missing the new app...

Allisgood1 · 19/08/2015 16:47

Back on the old app and missing the tester one!! Hmm

Mummyofonesofar · 19/08/2015 14:09

No I can't get into the app after changing my password either

RueDeWakening · 19/08/2015 14:04

I can't log in to the new app since I reset my password, is it just waiting for data to be synced across or what?

Just plain purple screens, can't even get on active convos without logging in.

Mind you, tech is probably a bit busy just now working on other stuff Flowers - I've had to borrow my dad's ancient flaky laptop and internet connection from the dark ages to post this, wont' be back till the app is working again/I get home :o

JonSnowKnowsSomeThings · 19/08/2015 13:43

Nope it's not working for me at all anymore the screens just come up blank and if you pull down to refresh nothing happens.

Twunk · 19/08/2015 13:29

Nothing either which is a shame as now I don't like the safari site Wink

I assume all will be well after the current crisis is over.

Purpletoes · 19/08/2015 13:27

I am getting them same as refuels. Unable to log in on new app

RedYellaGreen · 19/08/2015 10:35

this is the message I'm getting when I login…

Would you like to test an early version of our Talk app?
RedYellaGreen · 19/08/2015 10:33

First impression of the aptly of the new app is that it's very sleek! However I am currently unable to login like everyone else, and so haven't had a chance to test it properly. Can't wait to though, so I shall watch this space!

Flisspaps · 19/08/2015 08:16

The old purple app looks so odd now Grin

pixieg1rl · 18/08/2015 23:06

You must be having one hell of a night petetech, hope you get some kip and a cuppa soon

petetech · 18/08/2015 22:53

Sorry for the issues you're all having with the app at the moment. It's having a problem connecting with the Mumsnet server.

Since the server side of things isn't my area, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to get it working again tonight. However, I'll get right on it in the morning, and I'll be back to post an update here as soon as I can.

In the mean time, the mobile website appears to be working as normal. Apologies, all, for the inconvenience.

strawberryblondebint · 18/08/2015 22:23

I can't get in to the app anymore. I'm going old skool and back to mobile. I loved that app.

pixieg1rl · 18/08/2015 22:17

not working for me either, but I hardly think that the new app is a priority with everything else that's going on, the old app and web work fine now.

GetTheFudgeOutOfRodge · 18/08/2015 22:13

Me too.

I was getting the blank screen with no threads coming up, then I read about the forced password reset which I've done and I get on fine with the old app or through the website but the new app says I'm offline.

EquinoxEclipse · 18/08/2015 22:06

Yep me neither. It's been working all fine up until now, but I just get a blue screen.

Allisgood1 · 18/08/2015 21:16

Another one whose app isn't working. Was working fine around 4-4:30 when I posted. I've tried logging out and now it won't let me log back in Shock

badRoly · 18/08/2015 20:13

Hi, I've switched from app to mobile as I can't get threads to open from 'active' and TIO is not showing anything at all. Was all ok for me this afternoon - 3ish Smile
