Following on from the news of the release of our shiny new Android app, we are vair pleased to announce the release of the new and improved iPhone and iPad app.

All of our Talk apps are free to download and you can find lots more info on all things mobile here including an easy to scan and download QR code to get the mobile version on your phone.

Please do take a look and come back and tell us what you think.

Please bring back the old app, until this is sorted, it keeps booting me off Hmm

Love the new app, but like others I can't flip big threads and keep getting kicked out - annoying.

Sleepyfergus · 01/12/2012 19:38

Just not liking this, sorry! I'm on the iPhone app, and find it really hard to read list of threads compared with previous app. Don't know if its the colours, or the layout. Can't put my finger on it.

Also, still unable to read long thread titles in full which was something raised before.

And it's so unstable, keeps crashing.

I have just tried the iPad app again, and opened a short thread with 3 posts. There is no box, nothing below the 2nd reply, so that the entire thread took up about a third of my screen (landscape) and thereafter was blank. The thread was only that long anyway, so it has loaded the whole of it, but nothing else.

That's why I have yet to see the weird emoticons. I might cry.

Love the new iPad app xx

GlitKnit · 02/12/2012 07:52

Adding a message should be the report arrow.

GlitKnit · 02/12/2012 07:53

That's iPhone.
I'm back on the old one. This iPhone one is crap

GlitKnit · 02/12/2012 07:53

Agree screen too small.

ChablisLover · 02/12/2012 07:59

I hate the new Iphone app

Threads are duplicated it keeps crashing

It's not as easy to read or navigate

Bring back the old app

AlbertaCampion · 02/12/2012 08:59

I may have to give up on the iPhone version: fine at first, but now it keeps crashing. Hmm

AppleOgies · 02/12/2012 09:10

Mine seems to have sprung to life?! :)

Polgara2 · 02/12/2012 09:31

Same as others on iPad app unfortunately.
Keeps crashing
Can't post as never gets to bottom and if it doesn't crash there is no box.
Threads repeating on list (thought I was going mad!)

Have gone back to safari.

Jux · 02/12/2012 10:16

Boggler, what OS have you got on your iPad? I'll just go and see what mine is....

Jux · 02/12/2012 11:03

I'm on 5.1.1, and up to date, apparently.

Pickles77 · 02/12/2012 12:11

How do you get the old one back?

LittlemissChristmas · 02/12/2012 12:15

Does anyone else keep opening to just giving link all the time when they don't mean to? I'm on iPhone and the link wasn't as sensitive before. It's driving me mad!

MrsDeterminedandSpecialMum · 02/12/2012 12:34

Updated my IPhone app and it keeps crashing when I go to threads I'm on.

Rather annoying!

skyebluesapphire · 02/12/2012 13:04

Mine just keeps crashing when I scroll through a thread...

Not much good really :-(

KnottyLocks · 02/12/2012 13:23

Mine keeps chucking me out. I don't think it's me?!

LittleTownofBethleHelenMumsnet · 02/12/2012 13:24

Yes, sorry, we know there's a problem with the app crashing. Our apologies.

We're trying to get it fixed ASAP.

GlitKnit · 02/12/2012 14:41

It's shite as well.

CuriosityCola · 02/12/2012 16:08

I still can't get on any of my usual threads Hmm. Between that and not having most active, I might have to flounce until this has been resolved.

I also hate the new emoticons. The shocked one looks like someone has dies Shock. Hmm

CuriosityCola · 02/12/2012 16:09

died

bebejones · 03/12/2012 07:31

Need a 'crying' emoticon, MN on my laptop has been SOOOO slow to load for a month+ and now my newly updated iPhone app won't open a single thread without crashing! Have taken 10mins to get to the point on my laptop where I can post this. Feeling cut off :( :( How am I supposed to shirk my Christmas preparations now?!!

BitBewilderedChristmasTree · 03/12/2012 09:04

I have defected to the mobile site. Where emoticons are not cute, but are expressive, and
