Black areas on mobile

Anyone else get this? If I'm browsing the site on my phone if I've come back to my browser from using another app the thread will be all fuzzy and have random black blocks all through it before I refresh.

Simple fix but still annoying. :s

I'm getting this too, it's actually so bad that it's putting me off using the site.

Also Honor 8 on Chrome.

dalmatianmad · 19/10/2018 23:02

I have this almost every time I try and look at a thread, why is it happening?

Originallymeonly · 19/10/2018 23:46

Are you trying to force us into downloading your app, mumsnet? It's really dreadful and putting me off browsing, so whatever you have done for more ad revenue is counter productive.

MrsGarethSouthgate · 20/10/2018 00:00

Worse today than ever - Samsung, Android, Chrome.

Nudges not working Mumsnet - how about a sharp dig in ribs and an "Oi!!! Get it sorted!!!"

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 20/10/2018 00:03

I get this all the time. Using Samsung s8 on chrome.

FishesThatFly · 20/10/2018 00:04

Phew!! Thought it was my phone! Samsung s8

Blarneybear · 20/10/2018 00:04

Me too. Makes it really hard to post. Android phone.

M0gg · 20/10/2018 08:10

Keeps happening to me. Only when marks and Spencer advert is showing. Black blocks appear on screen and if I'm typing it stops working. If I'm scrolling then the posts are duplicated and muddled up.

FlosCampi · 20/10/2018 08:20

I'm actually giving up on threads because this seems to be getting worse- Samsung galaxy 8 and using the app.

IwillrunIwillfly · 20/10/2018 08:25

Problem getting worse for me too!

AlexaShutUp · 20/10/2018 08:31

I'm giving up on threads too. Will be giving up on MN too if it doesn't get sorted.

It's getting worse, not better.

HRTpatch · 20/10/2018 08:32

Me too...samsung s7 . Bloody annoying

Harleyisme · 20/10/2018 08:35

I have this and this morning is worse than ever. Can't look or reply to any threads

SleepingInYourFlowerbed · 20/10/2018 08:37

Yep, even worse this morning. Can barely read anything now.

IWannaSeeHowItEnds · 20/10/2018 08:49

Happening to me too. Am using mobile site on chrome Samsung S6.

FormerlyFrikadela01 · 20/10/2018 08:52

I've been getting this a few weeks too. Very annoying. I'm.on samsungs7 using chrome.

Galvantula · 20/10/2018 08:59

I've been getting this intermittently too, for a couple of weeks.

Also Samsung phone using Chrome browser.

BathTangle · 20/10/2018 09:01

I thought it was just me - it's really annoying - Samsung on Chrome too.

DropZoneOne · 20/10/2018 10:57

I've been getting this too. Samsung A3 using Chrome. Today is worse than ever, it was every 30 seconds or so in a few threads.

Cococachara · 20/10/2018 13:07

Also having this issue on chrome on mobile. Really bad pretty much on every thread.

Mibby16 · 20/10/2018 13:15

I've got this too. Glad it's not my phone breaking. Sony xperia on chrome

BobbinThreadbare123 · 20/10/2018 13:17

This has been happening for many weeks now. I use an Honor 7X with Android. Its really irritating. A page refresh will wipe it but you lose your place.

M0gg · 20/10/2018 14:06

Does anyone else only get it when the M&S ad is up or is it just coincidence for me?

Winewinewinewine · 20/10/2018 15:20

Me too! Samsung S6, mobile site, chrome. It seems to be ad linked but not sure which one as that goes black too.
Been doing it on virtually every thread over the past few days.

AGHHHH · 20/10/2018 15:23

My third attempt at writing this post being ruined by it and I've had enough. I'm not bothering to use the forum until it's been fixed. See you in a week or so!

Having no update whatsoever after this long isn't on.
