Hi all,

We are aware that there are some ishoos with our app, but we've been taking keen notes and have passed them onto tech. Some fixes will be worked out soon.

There's a big thread for moaning feedback here

@RudolphsNoseInMyXmasStocking

Can't see how to start a new thread in a topic? Can anyone offer some help please!

Hi Rudolphsnose,
To start a new thread, go to Topics > Whatever Topic you want to post in and then tap the 3 dots in the top right hand corner and select 'Add to my topics'.

@CelticPromise

I quite like it. Mobile site drives me mad, I'm forever accidentally clicking top, bottom or report.

I don't like the upside down threads though.

Hi CelticPromise, you can change the reading order by going to 'Menu> Settings> Flip Direction' OR if you just want to flip the thread you're reading then tap on the 3 dots in the top right hand corner and select 'Flip this thread'

Hi funchum8am,
When you're in the thread you want to reply to, click the 3 dots in the top right hand corner and then tap 'Add Message'.

@glitch

I like it but why is the original post at the bottom of the page? Is it just me or is everyone reading the threads backwards?

Hi glitch,
Go to Settings on the Home Screen and press flip direction, this will make the first post at the top.

@valpollicella

I've just noticed that when the thread is long, and it loads more of the messages you suddenly lose where you were on the thread, so you have to scroll back up

Also, would it be possible to have a button that returns you to Active, instead of going back to Home and then Active? If I've spent an age reading an epic thread, I usually think, ah no point in going Back as all of the threads I hadn't clicked on will have moved on, so I would go to Active to refresh.

Don't seem to be able to do that now without goin g to home and active (MINOR issue btw)

Hi valpollicella,
Do you have a back button on your handset? You can use this to go back one step rather than having to go via the Home Screen.

Hope that makes sense?

Hi All,

Thanks for your feedback, I've tried to answer some of the easier things but have made a massive list of all the other things you've mentioned which I will pass on.

One general thing, I think if you've got a smaller phone screen the text box is being hidden by the keyboard- I'll make a note of this to see if we can make it scroll in the background so you can see your post!
