Why can't we vote on the app?

Hi,

Just wondering why it's not possible to vote YABU or YANBU on the app?

I haven't used the webpage for aeons - and didn't really get what people were talking about with all this voting

What's the point in having it, if lots of people can't even do it?

Thanks Smile

Agreed, the app is already a rubbish with not being able to access PM's. I only ever use the app and was surprised to discover a whole stack of PM's when I signed in on my laptop after hacker-gate. Not being able to see or vote using the YABU/YANBU buttons simply adds insult to injury.

Oh - I didn't realise we didn't get notification of PMs on here either.

Just gone onto the website, and see I've been ignoring someone who'd PMd me to thank me for something.

Feel really rude now.

Confused

Yes - I can't see why the app doesn't have the same functionality as the website.

It's so frustrating isn't it?

The netmums app does messages so not sure why this one can't, no idea about voting.

@MNHQ?

Any chance of a reply?

Thanks for flagging this up, @LimeRedBanana - we're passing it on here at MNHQ and hope to have an update for you soon.

The app could be better....

It doesn't let me change topic when I start a thread. I have to phrase everything as a aibu.

Also cant zoom photos when attached to thread.

Thanks @LouMumsnet - look forward to hearing from you.

Hey guys, sorry for the delay on this one.

There's a number of features that Talk web has, that we don't have in the app. Some of these features need a significant amount of work to get in, and some features we're still testing out before committing to building it in the apps too.

The goal is ultimately to have parity between the web and apps, but unfortunately it does take time! Until then, thanks for your patience.

Thanks for the update.
