Having recently switched from an iPhone to Android I'm amazed how poor the Android app is. The iOs app is just right; all the essential features without bloat and you can pop on to the desktop version for messaging or advanced search for example. In comparison, the Android app is pretty much unusable.
Problems I've noticed
- if other posters use formatting it comes out as a load of asterisks and acute symbols
- all links say 'click here' instead of showing a url or description as they do on iOs. Many links don't work at all and without a descriptor can't be googled so you can follow the thread
- images in threads can't be expanded so are usually unreadable
- watched threads don't show when there are new posts
- something in posts (punctuation maybe?) renders as mumsnet emojis so posts are littered with stars or gin bottles. I'm pretty sure it's not on purpose!
Any plans to make the Android app user experience as good as the iOs one please @MNHQ?
