@MagpieCursedTea

Will those of us that have been testing the new app be able to continue using it? (Pleeeeeeeease? I love it so much!)

I'll find out for you, MagpieCursedTea (and not just cos you've given it such a ringing endorsement Wink)

MagpieCursedTea · 27/08/2015 16:14

Thank you Sarah! (I'll do all the free advertising you want Wink)

@MagpieCursedTea

Thank you Sarah! (I'll do all the free advertising you want Wink)

Ah, Magpie - I've checked with Tech and apparently testers aren't able to use the new app currently - but this is due to some releases they did yesterday, rather than anything old-app/hacker related. Sorry about that! You can have it back soon - promise Smile

MagpieCursedTea · 27/08/2015 17:10

I'm still using it, maybe I shouldn't be admitting to that and they'll now cut me off Grin

JeffreyNeedsAHobby · 27/08/2015 17:22

Oh, I took the pic to mean something like Anonymous had broken his mask - as in maybe they weren't supporting him and had let him down?
I may have read too much into that though - was hoping they had realised what a pillock he is and left him out to dry.

It's all a bit boring now, isn't it? The least he could do is explain these "anti dad" sentiments he is pretending to be the reason behind his school holiday boredom "reign of terror" .

Apparently he's got the horn for MN. He could have bought us dinner and a drink to get our attention...

stripytees · 27/08/2015 17:54

The Android app hasn't worked for hours, says it can't connect to MN. What's going on?

LibrariesGaveUsP0wer · 27/08/2015 17:56

It has been taken down stripey

Blodss · 27/08/2015 19:11

Gransnet still appears to have an unsecure login page as in http and not https.

BrumpyGollocks · 27/08/2015 19:36

Aww noooooo!!!
I neeeeed the new app back !!
The old app isn't working for me & I can't find a thread I started about my poorly Ds,
Sorry for stealing all the exclamation marks! Hmm

SaskiaRembrandtWasFramed · 27/08/2015 20:07

I think app users are being advised to use the mobile site, the link is at the bottom of the page

LittleRedRidingHoodie1 · 27/08/2015 21:10

At least his latest tweet reveals he is in England...

BrumpyGollocks · 27/08/2015 21:40

Thanks Saskia,
I think I have finally caught up with everything & will learn to use the mobile site whilst the apps are gone.

MagpieCursedTea · 27/08/2015 22:01

How does it show he's in England?

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 27/08/2015 22:16

How does it show he's in England?

It doesn't. His profile location is "London", but you can write whatever location you like.

TiredButFineODFOJ · 27/08/2015 22:37

That account was hacked. It belonged to a dad in London.
Because hacking dada accounts si what dad security are all about...oh hang on that dosn't make sense either.
Are hackers narcissists are a rule? We've not explored borderline offensive armchair diagnosis yet have we?

TiredButFineODFOJ · 27/08/2015 22:38

*dad's accounts is. .....feking phone

LittleRedRidingHoodie1 · 28/08/2015 03:31

Because of using "eh"- not because of profile location.

LittleRedRidingHoodie1 · 28/08/2015 03:31

Tinfoil hat

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 28/08/2015 08:03

I wasn't able to log in all day yesterday. Had to change password again

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 28/08/2015 08:08

MNHQ

Why can't I log in through phone app?
I've just got a new password, which is how I can post here, through desktop site, but when I try the app (android/Samsung) it just keeps saying "unable to connect to Mumsnet" or similar.
It's annoying.
What do I do?

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 28/08/2015 08:11

Just read back - I'm not testing a new app. It's just my normal app. Not working.
