Hi Folks,
Our new Talk app is now live in the App Store. If you used the old app and didn't delete it then it should auto-update (depending on your settings) but otherwise you can download it from the app store.

This is a obviously a first live version - we plan to keep updating it, adding new features and addressing any user issues, so all feedback is most welcome.

Plus, we are planning to build an Android version too in the next few months - thanks for your patience re that Android users - we'll keep you updated on the progress and will be looking for Android testers in due course.

BitOutOfPractice Thanks for the extra info, will pass it on.

Groovee, Thisismyfirsttime I presume you were both testers? When you install a test app via Apple Test Flight, it expires after 30 days (it's an Apple restriction, nothing we can do about it I'm afraid). You'll have to install the released version from the App Store. Just open up the App Store, and search for Mumsnet. There's no need to delete the test version, the App Store should overwrite it and keep your favourite topics, read threads etc in tact.

Thisismyfirsttime · 15/10/2015 08:23

My app has also expired again!

BitOutOfPractice · 14/10/2015 22:15

Hi Pete. I don't think it was my signal dropping because active worked great. It was only "I'm on" that gave me the message

Groovee · 14/10/2015 20:37

My app has expired again! On both the iPad and my iPhone. Keep having to long in.

FawnDrench · 14/10/2015 18:39

So sorry - 3rd time lucky...
last try

FawnDrench · 14/10/2015 18:36

Oops - trying again.
here we go

FawnDrench · 14/10/2015 18:32

Thank you so much for your very helpful response Pete.
I have obviously inadvertently leaked all over the link without realising it!
I really must get something done about this err.... "problem".
But apart from that I don't really know where the extra characters came from.
I am going to try to post a link now to see if I can do it correctly.

Ok that seemed to work, so I think it's simply a case that you'd copied the wrong link in when you made the post.

The correct link is:

www.inhouserecipes.com/sour-curd-khatti-dahi-what-all-can-you-make/

But in your post it has an extra bit on the end:

www.inhouserecipes.com/sour-curd-khatti-dahi-what-all-can-you-make/leak

Had you had any reason to write the word leak in the post? Wondering if it accidentally got added to the end when typing.

PeteTech · 14/10/2015 16:50

Thanks *Fawn

Ok I can see why the link isn't working. It's got an extra bit on the end that shouldn't be there: /leak/.

I'm going to post the correct link below twice. Once with just the link, and once with the same text you used, just to double check that it works:

FawnDrench · 14/10/2015 16:08

Thank you very much for the response Pete.
The last link I posted was in Food/recipes yesterday at 19.36
Thread entitled "What can I do with yogurt that has gone sour?"
It would be great if you could work out what I seem to be doing wrong!
I'd really appreciate a step by step guide to posting links with the new app.

BitOutOfPractice Thanks for the feedback - this error means your connection "timed out". It could be a drop in your 3G/4G connection, but we did have some backend issues that caused this to happen a few weeks ago, so I'll speak to our back end developers and see what they say.

FawnDrench Thanks, I'm glad you like it - sorry for the trouble with links. Do you recall any of the threads where you posted a link and then it didn't work after previewing? If you could point me in the direction of one (realise you can't post a link to it!) then I'll have a look.

FawnDrench · 13/10/2015 20:18

Love the app so far apart from the fact that I just can't seem to post links successfully from my iPad now. Never had a problem before.
This isn't covered in your FAQ guide either.
I've followed the same method as previously but it always comes up "not available / missing" etc. after the link is accessed following me posting on a thread, even tho it looks fine in preview mode.
Most frustrating!
I have iOS 9.0.2.

BitOutOfPractice · 13/10/2015 13:52

Hi Jessica! It seems to happen more often when I'm using 3G or 4G. Not so glitchy on wifi. I don't know if that is relevant.

I'm on a iPhone 6 with the latest ios9.02 software.

@BitOutOfPractice

Hi MNTowers.

Um getting the 1001 error message A LOT when I press the "I'm on" tab! Either that or I only get the very last thread I've posted on

Is it just me? The app in general seems very glitchy today

Hello there,

Is this still happening for you? Would you mind letting us know what device you're using and what iOS version is possible? Thanks

Hi prettybird

Thanks for flagging this. At present the Local Talk boards aren't linked to the app but we will definitely be adding Local Talk access at some point.
Of course we'll let you all know when that does happen!

prettybird · 11/10/2015 21:59

Is MNHQ deliberately trying to kill off Mumsnet Local? The fact that you can't access the Local topics at all from the app, nor can you search (eg, in my case, Glasgow) means that the Local Boards will die a death Sad

Sorry or pulling down depending on your reading order

Thanks MNerAnon! Yes pulling up will refresh the thread or active. Android development is in the pipeline but some way off for now.
