Mobile site playing up or is it just me?

I have had to switch to desktop settings to start this thread.

The blue bar is missing from the bottom so I can't use the short cuts. I have reset my phone and internet, no change and been like this for a good few hours.

Argh!!! Help!

Just coming here to say the same thing!

So pleased to see this thread. It's so annoying to get only random occasional use of the blue bar.

Laineylou · 02/07/2016 21:46

Me too (android)

Yokebe · 02/07/2016 21:49

Yes - android.

MartinRohdesBellybuttonFluff · 02/07/2016 21:52

Me too.

PortiaCastis · 02/07/2016 21:52

Me too, using Android

ITS NOT JUST THE MOBILE SITE.

Sorry. I can't bloody tell what I am typing. The desktop site has gone tiny and it's even smaller if I don't use my Adblock because the bloody advert takes half the page whereas the text just shrinks.

IonaMumsnet · 02/07/2016 22:21

Hi again everyone. So sorry about this. It's a right PITA. ExLtEveDallas - sounds like a daft question but are you on the desktop site on a mobile, or the desktop site on a desktop PC or Mac? And if you're on a mobile, is it Android? Any info like this we can give Tech might help them fix it sooner.

Needmyowndesertisland · 02/07/2016 22:23

I'm on windows phone and the mobile site keeps crashing. No blue bar either.

Swearwolf · 02/07/2016 22:44

It's happening on mine too, I'm on Android. Wish I'd checked here earlier - I logged out to see if that would fix it and couldn't get back in!

PointlessUsername · 03/07/2016 00:08

I'm on Android. The blue bar will come up randomly but if I click away it disappears again.

emotionsecho · 03/07/2016 00:18

Good news - Mobile Site obeying the instruction to keep me logged in.

Bad news - the blue bar disappearing randomly. Very slow and posts take an age to type and load

Samsung Tablet, Google Chrome

Hi Iona. Desktop site on a mobile (iPhone) iOS 9.3.2 using Safari.

Only started happening on Friday. Jumps between desktop and mobile constantly, doesn't stay on either if I go to another app. Logged me out a couple of times and it took ages to be able to log back in because the 'log in' button disappeared completely. Have tried the usual fixes, clearing website data/cookies etc, haven't done an iOS update for a while. No other site I use has this issue.

DappledThings · 03/07/2016 08:00

I can't get onto the mobile site at all. Been redirected to the desktop site from my phone (Android).

quirkychick · 03/07/2016 08:49

I'm on android, still no blue bar. I agree it is very slow!

quirkychick · 03/07/2016 08:50

Samsung tablet here, too. I am on the mobile site - yesterday I couldn't get on, but no blue bar at all and links very slow.

NotCitrus · 03/07/2016 09:49

Samsung Android phone, been having the site go unusably slowly all weekend since Friday, now lost the blue bar.

DonkeyOaty · 03/07/2016 10:13

Samsung android mobile site

ilovesooty · 03/07/2016 11:04

Samsung Android mobile site. Blue shortcut bar almost completely absent and bookmarks not working when returning to a thread.

Callmecordelia · 03/07/2016 11:13

Still not working for me - Samsung Android mobile site here too.

ChippyMinton · 03/07/2016 11:20

Windows phone, longer threads won't load fully. I can read the first few posts then the page stops scrolling.

Swearwolf · 03/07/2016 11:36

Still not getting the blue shortcut bar on the mobile site on my Amazon fire phone.

ArmfulOfRoses · 03/07/2016 12:03

I'm on mobile site on android.
No blue bar, and the options at top to search topics etc don't work so haven't been able to start a thread, been waiting a couple of days for one to pop up in active!

I've been refreshing active using the circular arrow thingy at the right hand end of the search bar.
That's very technical info there but hopefully tech will understand it Grin

IonaMumsnet · 03/07/2016 12:20

Thanks for all the extra info, everyone. We'll make sure Tech have all of it and will update if we get any news. Thanks for your patience in the meantime.

SheWhoDaresGins · 03/07/2016 13:09

It has took me all morning to get back on this. The page was diving around all over the place making it impossible to access it.
