Please will you give us a date, MNHQ, you keep teasing us. It's all 'soon' here and 'any day now' there but I WANT TO KNOW WHEN

Last mention, it was with Apple. So they may not know.

Especially with the new iOS to be released any day.

HelenMumsnet · 19/09/2012 17:23

Yep, still with Apple, we're afraid

I beta tested the Android app. You really really don't want it. Grin

Android app in pipeline, Empress. Honest.

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 21/09/2012 01:36

Oh good thank you. RowanMumsnet says next year?

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 21/09/2012 01:36

Tee. You beta-tested it? Do I seriously not want it? What was it like?

ThingsThatMakeYouGoHmmm · 21/09/2012 01:43

I updated my phone today with ios 6 if thats what you're on about, its out.

ThingsThatMakeYouGoHmmm · 21/09/2012 01:44

Click settings, go to general/software update, and it should be there. Plug the phone into a power source while updating, and it takes a little while so do it at a quiet time lol

terrywoganstrousers · 21/09/2012 04:27

I meant the new mumsnet app, I've already got iOS 6 Smile

Do you know, I might actually have a smart phone/i-phone by the time one of these aps appears and works properly and I'm a really old gimmer who is veeeeeeeeeeeeery slow to embrace change.

ThingsThatMakeYouGoHmmm · 21/09/2012 16:54

Ahhhhh i see well won't it just 'update' when ready? What improvements are going to be made do you know?

Tee2072 · 21/09/2012 17:02

Yes, I beta tested.

It's okay. I think, just like with the iPhone app, there are a lot of things that are available on site that could be available on an app and aren't. Like colouring your own posts/OP's posts and things. It is, actually, better than the iPhone app for a lots of things.

I beta tested the new iPhone App as well. It's also just okay.

Sorry HQ, but you already knew I felt this way! Well, Darren knows. ::bats eyelashes at Darren::

ThingsThatMakeYouGoHmmm · 21/09/2012 17:06

LOL well as far as honest reviews go that one works for me, i have the app, dont use it much and never used it to post, i prefer the PC layout :)

MrsAFlowerpot · 22/09/2012 09:35

Android android. I regularly just check if it's available - even though I know it's not! PLEASE can we have it soon?

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 22/09/2012 10:16

Rowan said it won't be this year.

Thanks Tee. So the mobile site's just as good?

Tee2072 · 22/09/2012 15:24

I think it is much easier to move between the Mobile Site and the Desktop Site than it is to move between the App (either App) and the Desktop/Mobile Site.

I just find the Apps so different from the Sites.

I actually think the Mobile Site is fantastic as it is just a trimmed down Desktop Site.

The App(s) are like their own creatures. Grin

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 22/09/2012 20:16

Ok. Thanks Tee.

Oh and there's a piece of State's Victoria sponge in the Puddle with your name on it Grin

HelenMumsnet · 22/09/2012 20:19

Did someone mention cake?

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 22/09/2012 22:53

Come and snuggle with us in the Puddle, Helen.

We have State's gorgeous beaded cushions and luffly warm chenille covers, and we're drinking hot chocolate and toasting marshmallows on the fire.
