CALLING ALL BLACKBERRY USERS!

29 replies

ColetteTech · 01/11/2012 16:20

Hi All,

We're looking for 5-10 blackberry users to have a play /pull apart the upcoming Mumsnet Blackberry App.

Unfortunately, we don't have a long time to do this, so you'd have to able to play around with it and get some feedback to us by Monday.

We're just looking for some feedback on what's working (hopefully, all of it!) and what's not to feedback to our developers.

So, if you'd be interested in being a tester please post here on this thread.

Thanks

ColetteTech

Ooo me please!

Did I miss the announcement of the Android app?

Or did you do a survey and discover that more MNers have BackBerries? (berrys?)

Or is it just easier?

QuenHelle · 01/11/2012 16:22

I'll do it.

Frontpaw · 01/11/2012 16:24

App on a blackberry? Well, I never! I can break anything going, so if you really want it put through it's paces count me in!

Oi! What about the Android app?! BlackBerry are on the way out you know...

marmitericecakes · 01/11/2012 16:26

I can do it. Free from tomorrow + off on holiday on Monday - perfect timing.

Tee2072 · 01/11/2012 16:28

Android app was tested a few months ago. I'm sure it's in the works.

We're in the final throes of finishing iPhone, iPad and Android apps. We're like this close. The reason for the delay is that we wanted to ensure that these, fun, things all work - which I'm reliably informed is a tricky thing to do with apps like ours.

I'm not going to commit to a timescale for this but I can confirm that the developers are working very hard and have almost got it working.

Watch this space.

Hello Darren, how's the non-beard?

Good of you to sacrifice it, Darren. Grin

StaceeJaxx · 01/11/2012 17:20

I'll do it.

Trills · 01/11/2012 17:24

I am impressed, I've not known anyone remove their proper beard in order to start from scratch on a movember mo.

BrandyAlexander · 01/11/2012 17:26

I can do it!

I'm posting from I now Grin will have a mess about with it now and email you :)

Ruprekt · 02/11/2012 11:30

Is it too late as I have a blackberry AndNoLife

ManifestingMingeHooHoosAgain · 02/11/2012 11:35

If you want another - me please.

MNing from Blackberry on tinterweb is pretty crap.

KnickersOnOnesHead · 02/11/2012 11:35

It*

jen127 · 02/11/2012 11:35

I can do it ! As my BB is physically attached to my hand or so it would seem! Also need and android app for my samsung SIII which is attached to my other hand !

ManifestingMingeHooHoosAgain · 03/11/2012 11:40

Anyone else struggling with this? I can't get it to work at all.

Frontpaw · 03/11/2012 12:51

Mine won't download a single one. Maybe if they gave us all iphone5s we could try it again?

ManifestingMingeHooHoosAgain · 03/11/2012 13:04

Good plan. I'll pm my address to MNHQ now Grin

BrandyAlexander · 03/11/2012 14:00

Mine is working fine! Lots of feedback for mnhq though Grin

ManifestingMingeHooHoosAgain · 03/11/2012 14:13

I replied to the email but not heard anything yet. My BB is a bottom of the range Curve and I don't know which OS/app version it uses, the number I found on the phone starts with a 4 - so is it just too crap to use for the app?
