Yes it's been a long and somewhat painful wait but it's here at last!

Get yourself into the iTunes store, search for Mumsnet and it will appear before your very eyes. It is not a mirage.

Android app following soon! (nb the mobile version of Mumsnet is at already available at m.mumsnet.com)

Hope you like it...

(Any complaints to [email protected] Grin)

I want a blackberry app... now. (stomp stomp stomp)

Grumpla · 09/06/2011 14:52

I'd probably pay 50p to remove the adverts. Just so you know Smile

chocolateyclur · 09/06/2011 15:07

Going to get that now!

ChristinedePizan · 09/06/2011 17:29

Thanks MN. Have downloaded it no problem and it looks pretty good. On your updates though could you please have the option to colour the OP's posts and your own (makes it so much easier to read.

I was also having a problem getting to the end of very long threads but I managed to work that one out (flip the order - aren't I clever!), trouble is its flipped on teh computer now and I really don;t like that Sad. If there was a way you could go directly to the last post (as on the computer) that would be great.

Otherwise fantastic!

Sirzy · 09/06/2011 19:01

I must be in the minority, I downloaded it and after 20 mins of playing with it delete it. Think the mobile version is much simpler to navigate around and use.

I like how the topics I am on shows clearly who has posted and if there are new posts rather than having to guess and look.

catinboots · 09/06/2011 19:32

How do I pick a page on a thread or skip to last??? SmileGrinSadWinkAngryEnvyBlush

Bumperlicioso · 09/06/2011 19:38

Has anyone mentioned access to PMs yet or am I just not seeing it?

meggymegmegs · 09/06/2011 19:38

I love it Grin

Al0uiseG · 09/06/2011 20:02

I hate the ads too, would definitely consider forking out to get rid of them. All of 59p of course ;-)

MrsSnaplegs · 09/06/2011 20:52

Testing testing 1 2 Grin WinkAngryEnvySadSmile

Might take me a while but agree with the I would rather pay than have ads comments

Thistledew · 09/06/2011 21:01

I don't think the 'more' and 'previous' buttons are working correctly. It seems to work if you immediately go from the first to second page, but if you then read a thread on the second page, clicking on more or previous just seems to load the same page again.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 09/06/2011 22:20

please may we have a windows 7 app too.

HavePatience · 09/06/2011 22:32

Really good but missing the shock face!

sheepgomeep · 09/06/2011 22:36

I want a blackberry app

cornishpasty · 09/06/2011 22:41

It's got great potential but think I'll stick with mobile site for the time being.
As someone said - the logout doesn't work you only have to go back and you're still logged in. I don't want dp knowing my username, which he could easily see if he looked at my iPod and I'm not logged out properly.
I want to pick which page to look at - not just flip the thread.
I want the op's threads to be highlighted.
When I go back after reading a thread the thread titles page always goes back to the top so you have to scroll down again to find where you were.
Think that's all my suggestions for now.

cornishpasty · 09/06/2011 22:43

Oh yes and I can't see all of the title for some threads even when looking at the actual thread.

MrsShrekTheThird · 09/06/2011 23:26

Love it. Buttons idiot proof logical, and all the amulets right in front of you. Except Wine.
Hmm
But we will see if they work when I press post, teehee.
I've been waiting impatiently but very happy now it's here. Bit like pregnancy eh Grin

MrsShrekTheThird · 09/06/2011 23:27

Ffs. You didn't find a way of stopping the bloody iPhone from correcting s m I l e y s to amulets did you BlushGrin

CantSleepWontSleep · 09/06/2011 23:33

I went to threads I'm on and it didn't list the threads I'm on, so it's currently pretty useless to me, as that's where I check these days.

CantSleepWontSleep · 09/06/2011 23:47

This one has appeared in threads I'm on now, but neither of my post natal ones do.
And why no shocked smiley?

CantSleepWontSleep · 09/06/2011 23:51

In the topics bit, can we set up our own list of topics that we are interested in called 'my topics' so that we don't have to expand every topic heading searching for the ones that we want? In a future version at least please?

CantSleepWontSleep · 09/06/2011 23:53

And yy to hiding threads - even more important on a small screen.
