To wonder why the Mumsnet app is so rubbish!?

I love Mumsnet, and they're usually pretty good at what they do but, unless I'm missing something, the App is crap! You can't even highlight posts!!

Why MNHQ? Please please sort it. I'd even pay for the app if it was half decent.

I love it.

I think it's quite hard to read. For some reason it won't change to landscape so I can read titles in full! You also can't seem to skip to the final page of threads which would be useful.

Other than that though, I do like that I can keep up with the chat while I'm on the train!

'snot as rubbish as the PMing system.

Oiright Mem?

Tigresswoods · 05/04/2012 13:48

I like it. Don't see the problem.

Look at the stickies on the top of the active convos page....they are bringing out a new app soon and are looking for people to test it Smile

i just use the mobile version on my phone, open that then add to home screen .. all done

Snorbs · 05/04/2012 14:01

The mobile version of the site works fine on my Android phone. Is the iPhone's web browser so crap you've got to have an app for everything?

Memoo · 05/04/2012 14:04

I'm good thanks Chaos, I've just treated myself to a huge Easter egg. How you doing? (said in the style of Joey Tribbianni)

New App?!! >

I hear this a lot but I love it!
Only niggle is you cant read the full thread titles, but I can live with that!

DontForgetTheLightAlesLawrence · 05/04/2012 14:10

I dislike it because:

• I can't read full thread titles
• I can't appreciate my new name in all it's glory Wink
• I like having 100 posts per page, not 30.
• I can't have OP's or my own posts highlighted.

New app is going into beta this week. I agree, old app is crap.

Mobile site on iPhone much better.

We'll see how the new app is...

Memoo · 05/04/2012 14:36
