Too many stickies in active threads, 16 at the moment.

When I use my android phone with the MN app I mostly used active threads to make it easier to get around. But there are so many stickies threads that get listed at the top that it is a real pain scrolling through them. Stickies can be really useful, but there are 16 at the moment, only about 5fit on my phone screen so that is 3pages worth before I get to the top of the active threads list. Too many!

ThreeBeeOneGee · 13/07/2013 09:04

TrinityRhino · 13/07/2013 09:08

Ive got a huge amount on my Samsung phone too, its putting me off mning on it

ThoughtfulSilence · 13/07/2013 09:21

Trinity Yes, I'm on a android Samsung phone too. Just switched to my laptop cos it was pissing me off. It puts you off using the app because it makes it harder to navigate.

Will trying logging out and back in.

I'm on an android phone but using the browser rather than the app and I have 8.

JollyShortGiant · 13/07/2013 12:05

That should be 5. Sorry.

Hi - thanks for raising this. We'll look into it for you.

devilsadvocaat · 13/07/2013 17:26

it happens on my htc too. v annoying.

zeeboo · 13/07/2013 17:31

5 on mine (app on iPhone 4S) and that's irritating enough. It really does take up half the screen and as you can't scroll any further in active than just the one screen it is a waste of space. On other forums the stickies are always in a seperate tab.

Queen0fFeckingEverything · 14/07/2013 18:19

It's been like it for ages - the app is almost unusable tbh. Bookmark the mobile site instead, its loads better.

HenWithAttitude · 14/07/2013 18:23

I think I have my settings set to hide all stickies

or am imagining things

bumpybecky · 14/07/2013 18:44

last time I counted I had over 50, it's hugely irritating (android)

I don't really want to hide all stickies, but it's v tempting...

FluffyDucky · 14/07/2013 18:47

I was just thinking of posting about this! Also on a samsung android, using the app I have to scroll three ' pages' of stickies before getting to the active threads!

Indith · 14/07/2013 18:48

to get rid of stickies on android app you have to periodically clear all data from the app.

OliviaMMumsnet · 14/07/2013 19:16

Sorry we did actually know this is happening afaik Tech are trying to fix
Sorry we know tis annoying.

whenwilltherebegoodnews · 14/07/2013 19:20

87 !! on my HTC, very, very annoying!

Indith · 14/07/2013 19:39

Seriously, go into your apps and clear the data, you will have to log in again but all the old stickys will be gone.

whenwilltherebegoodnews · 15/07/2013 07:28

Wow, cleared data and now only 5! hurrah!

HelenMumsnet · 15/07/2013 12:59

@whenwilltherebegoodnews

Smile Apols again for this. We know how annoying it is - and we're doing all we can to sort it.
