Android testing

Is anyone else a tester for the android app and finding that they can't select a thread in a topic? In Chat, for example, the topics just seem to self-select at random, once I have chosen the first thread to read.

IAmAPaleontologist yes I've noticed the same thing. And its still crashing too much to be usable, so I've stopped using it. And if i try to post a comment of more than about 5 lines (which isn't much on a phone) then the text box disappears behind the keyboard and you can't get it to scroll so you can see it. Which means I can't see what I'm typing Hmm

Sorry MN but unless it's more stable you won't get any more testing from me Sad

I'm using a Samsung A3 (2015)

I have just logged on to the new version. I have tried hiding the threads that I an not interested in but when I refresh the page they come back again! Another thing is that, as a pp said above, the text hides behind a big white strip so I can't see what I'm typing...

Add you can see from my screenshot, the text is hiding behind the white bit. I have had to come on to my phone's browser to do this as I can't work out how to upload photos. HTC One M9.

I can't get it to install. My phone wont let me install 3rd party apps, only stuff from playstore.

I've noticed that it always crashes when you have scrolled to the end of a thread and the big ad comes up at the bottom.

Ive just got it going on my S7, loading an APK was a pain but now im up and in business. .First impression ls are its a tad clunky but much better that using the website ..So far so good!

OK, I've tried to install, but on clicking the link in the email, it just goes to my browser then nothing.
It's only on now reading this thread that I realised it failed to download because I was already logged in on the phone.

I've now managed to download and login.

When I click on a thread title in threads I'm on, it's actually taking me to the thread listed above it in the list.
