Customising in android app

3 replies

I've only just started using the app on my phone and can't see any way of customising anything Sad

I'd really like to be able to highlight all the OP's posts and add bookmarks. Is this possible?

While I've been typing I've also just discovered that I can't actually see what I'm typing thanks to the row of smilies above my keyboard. Any way around this?!

I have this too, thought I'd join in with a bit of a general whinge about the Android app (Xperia Z).

I can't customise anything except what direction I read the thread in - and then that carries over to my setting on the desktop site? I don't want to read them the same way though, you can do very different things between an app and the online site so you need different settings. (This is a recent change too, my app settings never changed my website settings)

I'd love to be able to have the OP's posts in one colour

You can't bookmark a thread, you can watch it but you can't bookmark it

And also I'm certain that the Active thread doesn't work properly. It brings up threads that just aren't active, as in you might have a list of 40 'active' threads but some of them don't have the current day's date on, and a lot of the say they are 30 posts long, for example, but when you click in to them they are 60 or 70 posts long. And that's after refreshing the page?

Sorry to hijack, didn't want to start yet another thread Smile

Glad it's not just me! I think I'll go back to using the mobile site. At least I know where I am with that.
