Mobile app - can I make posts different colours?

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 26/01/2013 18:53

Am using the mobile app on my iPhone.

I want to colour the op posts and my posts on a thread like normal.

I can't see a setting for this though, can it be done?

It's on the customise tab. I have done it on mine.

RubyrooUK · 26/01/2013 19:06

Where is the customise tab?

fanoftheinvisibleman · 26/01/2013 20:27

It is underneath the 'active' button on my display.

RubyrooUK · 26/01/2013 20:32

Hmmm...I can't find that. Are you on the newest app version? (Thank you for the help by the way.)

fanoftheinvisibleman · 26/01/2013 20:35

Possibly...not sure to be honest but I have inly had the phone a couple of months so can't be that old.

RubyrooUK · 26/01/2013 21:10

Hm, there's nothing under "active" for me except the latest posts. No options of customising. Will have a play around.

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 26/01/2013 23:06

No I can't see anything either. Have been into settings and can see the option to flip the thread but nothing else.

It's harder to follow with out them, I always forget who the op is and get a big Confused

I'm using the app.

Will have a look on the mobile site and report back!

An now on mobile site and have the option, I prefer the app though.

MNHQ why are there no colours on the mobile app?

Will report the thread to see if tech can do some jiggerey pokerey and sort it out.

Another one who would love to do that on the app.

RubyrooUK · 27/01/2013 07:49

Yes me too. Find the app easier to access and read than the mobile site so would love to do it on here.

SnowLiviaMumsnet · 27/01/2013 09:11

I don't know the answer to this but will find someone who does.
Thanks Happy Sunday all.

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 27/01/2013 09:52

Thanks SnowLiviaMumsnet Grin

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 27/01/2013 09:52

Also bold doesn't work?!

OP posts:
HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 09/02/2013 16:07

Did you manage to get any info on this one SnowLivia, or anyone i'm not fussy tbh i just want it sorted as it's driving me mad

OP posts:
Arithmeticulous · 09/02/2013 16:47

I'd like different colours and bookmarks on the app - then I'd use it, because unlike the mobile site, it doesn't crash my phone if there is more than 250 posts.

HelenMumsnet · 09/02/2013 21:11

Hello. Sorry not to have come back to you about this.

It's definitely on the bloomin long list of things that need fixing on the app. But we're not sure when it will be fixed, we're afraid.

Sorry. We know that's a bit pants but it's complicated our end. We are on the case, though, we promise.

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 09/02/2013 22:20

Thank you Helen

At least i know you know Grin

OP posts:
HelenMumsnet · 09/02/2013 23:40

Oh we know, we know

Caoilainn · 17/04/2013 20:10

Any joy with this yet?

Have been using site on iPad & iPhone using a regular browser as i don't find the app very useful without customisation. Hmm Blush

Oblomov · 04/07/2013 05:00

Any news on this please? Drives me mad.
