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.

Using it now.

I don't wish to seem ungrateful but I can't scroll through previous posts while I'm writing a reply.Shock

Would never work for an Archers thread ...

Luckily I'm very fond of the mobile site.

Ooooo its different! Do think you've done wrong by not separating the posts out and only highlighting the names...but I hated the mobile site so I guess I'll cope!

ophiotaurus · 25/09/2015 12:42

It's also difficult to scroll through looking for OP as only the name is highlighted a different colour, not the whole post.
App is not for me. Sorry.

ophiotaurus · 25/09/2015 12:40

It's ok I've downloaded it and I can see there isn't a line to differentiate between the posts. It all merges into one for me. So I won't be using it. Which is a shame.
Will stick to mobile site.

Have you put line in between the posts inside a thread? If not. I won't be using it. It's too uncomfortable to read. I mentioned this as a beta tester.

@RainbowFlutterby

I'm going to stick with the mobile site thanks all the same. I tested the app, but for as long as I can't hide completely irrelevant "stickied" threads I'm not going to bother.

Never mind. I'm sure you won't lose any sleep over it.

Thanks - that's interesting feedback.

@LovelyFriend

well done MN - I've been testing the new AP for a while now and it is a vast improvement on the old one.

Thanks for testing it Lovely - much appreciated.

It's all about pleasing as many of the people as we can - Android users 24%. But it will come, I promise!

JustineMumsnet · 25/09/2015 12:17

I'm afraid no plans right now - Windows users just 1.39% of our current audience and building apps is mighty expensive. Sorry!

You know what I'm going to ask: Are Tech working on a Windows Phone version?
