We’d like your help testing a new release of the Mumsnet Talk App 3.0 (beta).

This app is for iPhones and iPads on iOS8 only at the moment.

We'd love it if you can give the app a good workout - using it as you normally do - to read and post in Talk. please do bear in mind that the app is still in beta version, so some things may not work perfectly. We have made a few changes since our last test release.

Sign up for Talk app testing here

You can use any email address to sign up.
You need to be logged in to sign up. (If you can't see the sign up page, make sure you are logged in.)
It is LIVE. Any posts you make will be seen on the Mumsnet site for all to see. We'll send you an invitation to download the app (it will arrive via the TestFlight service).

Talk app users

This app will replace the current Talk app (2.1) on your phone if you have it.

Recent beta Talk app testers (Testflight 1.0)

If you have been involved in recent app testing, you will end up with two app icons (1.0 & 3.0) on your device. You can uninstall the previous beta app (it will stop working this week).
If you previously signed up for this - but didn't accept & download the app - you will need to sign up again.

Please do give us your feedback on this thread.
Many thanks Flowers

Oh no... I miss it already!

AnnoyedByAlfieBear · 10/09/2015 20:24

Mine too. I'd just managed to work everything out and was beginning to love it!

strawberryblondebint · 10/09/2015 21:34

Pish geez ma app back!!!

peekaboo1 · 10/09/2015 22:49

Noooooo I just got the app invite yesterday. Had a blissful evening of mumsnet apping and now it's gone again. When is it back? The mobile site just doesn't do it for me.

Simurgh · 10/09/2015 23:43

No early night for Tech I guess? Wink

Also mobile site doesn't seem to be working, ta desktop site whether I want to or not ??

Flingingmelon · 11/09/2015 08:58

I need the app back. And it needs the search option on it. My parenting is suffering Wink

OberonTheHopeful · 11/09/2015 09:24

I'm getting the expired message too, though TestFlight is saying it has 28 days left.

Missing the app, I'd got really used to it Smile

FrannyMumsnet · 11/09/2015 09:49

Apologies for any effects on your parenting!

The bad news is... We had a minor snafu with developer admin type things - which we are working on, and we may have a fix in due course. We'll let you know if we get it running. Blush

The good news is... We are on the brink of getting Talk app into the Apple Store. So hang tough, and you will have it back in all its glory soon. Smile Smile

We won't add any new sign ups until we know the beta app is working again.

MrsWembley · 11/09/2015 10:19

Phew! I've been trying for a few hours now, but not had time to check via Safari 'til now.

Thanks for letting us know.Grin

Simurgh · 11/09/2015 12:01

And getting complicated apps into the App store is actually no mean feat. Read the App Store Review Guidelines and weep.

I should imagine that Tech's Gin fund will be opening shortly? Wink

OnlyHereForTheCamping · 11/09/2015 12:33

I miss it!

MagpieCursedTea · 11/09/2015 14:43

Thanks for the update Franny. I hope tech manage to sort it soon, really don't like the mobile site Sad

andadietcoke · 12/09/2015 07:54

Looking forward to having it back soon. I've never been a fan of the mobile site. Good luck with the AppStore review process. It does very much seem to depend on who does it - I've had updates rejected for things that have been in there from the outset!

SouthWestmom · 12/09/2015 13:23

Yes it's back. Thank you!

LovelyFriend · 12/09/2015 13:23

Back on the AP

Thank goodness. I really missed it

LovelyFriend · 12/09/2015 13:24

Is it working?

GetTheFudgeOutOfRodge · 12/09/2015 13:24

Hurrah! Well done tech!

LovelyFriend · 12/09/2015 13:24

Woop woop!

Groovee · 12/09/2015 13:26

Yay we're back

MimsyBorogroves · 12/09/2015 13:43

Oh bloody hell, I'm so relieved. ----
