Is there ever going to be a new one? I know I can just use the internet on my phone but I liked having an app.

I just saw this thread. I should have searched a bit before jumping in with asking! Also eagerly awaiting android app

Any news yet? Would love to be able to keep up with threads and navigate more easily. Been loving the site for a while an android app would be so much better.

Redglitter · 12/10/2016 13:59

I can't believe almost a year later were still waiting for an android app. I don't know any other app that doesn't have an android version

Really poor

AyeAmarok · 30/09/2016 21:48

Ach, I was hoping this thread would say it was done!

Come oan!

WotNoLoobrush · 30/09/2016 21:44

Looks like the mystery of the elusive Android app continues.

Mind you, I'm now not sure we're missing out on anything. The apple version seems to be causing enough problems by the looks of it.

RoseValleyRambles · 27/09/2016 08:53

Agreed! Was amazed when I was last tuning in in January that it wasn't here yet. Now 9 months later, and still nothing! What's the due date, mumsnet?

Hagothehills · 25/09/2016 15:38

So it's nearly October now and still no app, what's going on HQ?

NNalreadyinuse · 19/02/2016 15:17

Just started a really boring thread un chat about how when I click on a post in the 'threads I'm on' part of the mobile site, it takes ages to load. I used to think it was my crappy internet but I just got fibre so in theory it should be faster, but it just isn't.
Am on a Samsung S6 if that's relevant.

SpidersFromMars · 19/02/2016 15:11

I miss the app too!

It's quite a long time since new year.

RunningKatie · 04/02/2016 18:23

I actually tried creating a post today and when previewing it lost the lot.

I miss MN

GoneAndDone · 12/01/2016 15:21

I am still having the issue with the mobile site as mentioned above - the cursor seems to jump over words/letters making it almost impossible to type anything. I rarely post using the mobile site now and I'm on MN a lot less. Which is probably a good thing, I actually get things done instead. Wink

Hi all - apologies for the delay in getting back to you.

Our iOS users make up over 64% of our overall mobile users, which is why the iOS app took priority, with Android users taking up just over 30%. Of course, we're not saying Android users aren't important. There are a few of us at HQ eagerly awaiting the Android app too.

However, creating apps is a lengthy process - it takes around a year to create an app like this. We want to assure you the app is being worked on as we speak, and very soon we will be posting a request for volunteer testers of the early version.

If there are major issues with the mobile site, please do let us know and we'll ask Tech to take a closer look.

Again, we do apologise and please do keep posting your thoughts on this.

WotNoLoobrush · 11/01/2016 21:30

I agree with your last post Champagne.

MissMooMoo · 09/01/2016 12:48

agreed that the mobile site really lags, no other sites do.
I constantly find that I think I've clicked on a thread and in reality I have clicked on a totally different one as the site hasn't caught up with my scrolling.

RunningKatie · 08/01/2016 17:14

Another 6 months? Shock

I find the mobile site impossible on my.phone.The cursor skips about and thr bar about the guest post is currently sat over what i am typing so apoligies for spelling but i can't get rid of the stupid thing.

MissMooMoo · 08/01/2016 15:00

6 months? !?!

I'm a little put out at how Android users have been treated. We've been very patient but another 6 months seems ridiculous - I presume that the iphone app is fine and dandy? Why are we so low on the list of priorities?

It's almost impossible to post on Android on the mobile site now - typing anything, the cursor moves so slowly it skips letters and words. Only this site is affected. I use Firefox.

Hi ChampagneTastes - the Android app is being worked on and will be here later this year. We're hoping in around 6 months time, but that is very much an estimate at this point.

@ChampagneTastes

So it's January.... Any update?

Only just, though! We'll go knock on Tech's door and see if we can get any info...

So sorry that you're feeling left out. Sad

Thank you Dawn. I have pretty much dropped off mumsnet since it's been gone. Sad
