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

Also please add a "search" by username or keyword function. Can't find this either!!

I'm having issues.

There's a thread I apparently watched in 2014. I stumbled on it and it was about a pregnant lady and MRI, originally dated feb 2014. Last post was yesterday and she still hasn't had her baby

Also tonight I was on a wedding thread and the times of postings are 9:15pm

Threads I've hidden keep showing again when I refresh active.

Special Needs topics are showing in Active when I've opted out of them.

That's not so good, LittleBear. It could be useful if you could provide stats on comparable usage with the old App - but even as it stands, it's a little worrying.

And this thread had disappeared from TIW and I had to find and re-add it.

There were 2 random threads in my Watching - never seen them before in my life. And they sort of looked spammy.

I probably should have screenshot before I deleted them. Sorry

Ditto on the battery life thing! I thought my charger wasn't working properly...

The usage thing is very interesting - I wondered why my phone suddenly seemed to be draining faster!

And for what it's worth I only installed the app last night and it's 20% of my battery usage in the last 7 days. I haven't used it more or less than I would use the mobile site in the last 20 hours. For comparison Safari is 31% over the last 7 days.

I have spent about twice as long on the app as on safari and rather less time on Facebook.

I recharged my phone about lunchtime and its on 85% now. The app is using a lot of battery.

Why are my latest 'I'm On' topics at the bottom of the page?

It's counter-intuitive and I have to scroll Down to see recently updated threads.

What are the relative times you've been on each of the sites, though, LittleBear and what have you been doing when you're there? (Just wondering whether it's a marked and genuinely comparable difference or whether you're looking at the headline stats and not drilling down.)

It's 75% of my battery use in the last 24 hours. Facebook by contrast is 2% and Safari 8%.

I'll probably stick to the mobile site if it carries on being so hungry.

I've been looking at battery life and it is harder on the battery than Safari, but I have several other apps that are just as hungry or even more so, including my current favourite word game.

Yes!

I've got an iPhone 5s and I've just looked at the usage stats - this app is a massive battery sucker I'm afraid. It accounts for 20% of my battery use over the last 24 hours - miles more than any other app. It may have to go on those grounds alone. My battery has reduced by 1% just whilst I have been typing this post!

Is anyone finding its killing their battery life? My phone was fully charged this morning and is now at 35%. This isn't normal.

Sorry meant to say I am on my iPhone for the box at the top and all my other posts.

Ah - now fixed.

Just to note that the post count of this thread has gone woogly - it's currently showing as 1. (I don't know whether that's to do with who was posting and/or on what device or software.)

Ophiotaurus - it does say in the OP that it's not for the iPad yet - the app automatically downloaded onto my iPad as well as my iPhone and it's usable but a lot of the white blocks are not correctly aligned (eg the ones on the bottom bar showing which page you've selected. I'm sure that the final version will be optimised for iPad

The op name is a different colour but I meant the whole box to be shaded like it is on the mobile site.

Also there is a big rectangle at the top which cuts out a lot of screen space. It would be good if that could disappear when you scrolled down.

Also a way of getting to the bottom of the thread is essential because of its a long thread then it take ages to scroll down.

Flip is also needed but I saw that's coming in the update.

I've just noticed that this 'new thread' error message when you don't type anything new, comes up when you try to oust in an existing thread but don't type anything because I have fat fingers

Wording got me all confused that I accidentally had started a new thread for a sec!

And to those who are asking to have the OP colour blocked - that's already happening on my phone...

Trying out fudge's idea, but it only shows the last bookmarked post - otherwise, for tech!

I've realised now that if you start typing a reply and then you want to double check something on the thread, you can tap on the coloured background to minimise your keyboard, press the button underneath the smilies, font and post, it will say either 'Show bookmarked posts' or 'Show original post' and you go back to the thread to look at whatever you want and when you press 'reply' again what you've already wrote before going back is still there.
I've probably explained that really badly
