Mobile site keeps freezing up

164 replies

Catzpyjamas · 13/10/2016 19:38

I'm on Silk Browser on Kindle Fire HDX.
For the last 3 days, the site freezes, refresh goes on for ages, threads disappear half way down as if only half the page loaded and I have to shut the tab and start again each time.

Still happening here too. Come on Mumsnet. Makes for a very annoyed user who is losing confidence in the site.

I don't think they care about us
😭

I have trouble posting from my iphone - I hit the post button and I get the circle of doom and the site freezes. Totally random, sometimes it works, sometimes it won't.

On my 9th go trying to post this...

Catzpyjamas · 22/10/2016 08:44

It worked on your 9th attempt, Spudlet Smile

I reported my post again last night so hopefully MNHQ will update us soon?

Persistent, that's me!

Howyoualldoworkme · 22/10/2016 11:06

Still struggling here too. Works fine on pc but that won't fit in my handbag!

Emochild · 22/10/2016 11:26

Same problem on my iPhone

It's a pain in the arse

Glad this isn't just me. Mobile site keeps freezing on my (quite old) iphone. I noticed it always freezes when the top banner ad is twinkly stars on a night sky background. Anyone else? It's so bad I've had to crash out my phone for a restart several times. Thought my phone was dying until I realised it's just mumsnet.

insancerre · 23/10/2016 15:48

It seems OK today
Anyone else notice?

minsmum · 23/10/2016 15:54

Still having problems

LineyReborn · 23/10/2016 17:22

Still awful.

gleam · 23/10/2016 17:22

It's better for me, insancerre.

FiveShelties · 23/10/2016 17:40

Still awful here - would love to read a response from MN - one day -- maybe ----

Catzpyjamas · 23/10/2016 17:43

It was actually doing ok earlier today but has been freezing up again since I came on here 15 minutes ago.

Yep, its gone a bit crap again for me too

BoreOfWhabylon · 24/10/2016 00:41

I installed Adblocker plus on my ipad today.

Seems to have improved the loading speed now I no longer have the massive twinkly ads at the top of the page.

Roystonv · 24/10/2016 08:03

Still not working, seconding that they don't give two hoots as such a small number seem to be affected, no improvement, no updates. You would hope they would be interested as they have done something new and next time it might affect many more.

Roystonv · 24/10/2016 08:04

Not even any suggestions as to what might help that we could try ourselves.

KatherineMumsnet · 24/10/2016 11:43

Morning all,

We're so sorry for the delay on this. Tech are still taking a look, we're sorry we can't post anything of more use than that, we realise it's hugely frustrating. Flowers

LineyReborn · 24/10/2016 19:30

Still crap.

FiveShelties · 24/10/2016 22:28

Thank you for posting Katherine - it is good to get a response even if not good news.Smile

somewheresomehow · 27/10/2016 15:46

Its still playing up on the kindle fire
had to give up on it this morning so annoying :/

LineyReborn · 27/10/2016 17:46

It's still dreadful. Threads won't load, posting is hit and miss, etc etc

Catzpyjamas · 27/10/2016 19:09

As Liney says, posting is difficult as the page just doesn't load and needs shut down. The site is still crashing every few pages.

Still doing it here, just woken up, read first page of thread won't load second - very frustrating.
