Big Al Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I don't know how user friendly this site was before I replaced my old ManPhone with the Xperia I'm now carrying around, but I gotta say, the site sure looks nice and is mighty easy to navigate from my phone. Hooray!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I just got an iPhone last week, and the site looked and worked great off it also, what wonders I've been missing. However, no matter what I use, I still can't spell worth a darn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medjuck Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Maybe one of our more computer talented members could develop an Organissimo Forum app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wheel Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Maybe one of our more computer talented members could develop an Organissimo Forum app. Why would we need one, though? The mobile version of the board is lightweight enough that I really don't see what extra functionality an app would accomplish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mobile version of the board is lightweight enough that I really don't see what extra functionality an app would accomplish. no zooming, browsing to the site, etc. an app would just be an optimized version of the site for the android OS.

.:.impossible Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 There was a nice upgrade to the mobile software about a week ago. I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wheel Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Yup, I noticed that also (I'm running Android 2.2), and that's why I don't really think a dedicated app would be that useful. It does look like you can't zoom, but I'm not sure how great it would be if you could, since the mobile board right now is formatted so the posts take up almost the entire phone screen. Any more zooming in and you'd be doing a lot of scrolling, either up and down or (worse) left and right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.:.impossible Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I just go to the site like I always have. It seems there was a Software upgrade last week because the board looks optimized for iPhone now. No download necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medjuck Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Thanks. Don't know how I missed Jim's post about this. It's great. Sent from my iPhone. Or as my son says: sent from a device that makes my spelling even worse than usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my browser settings unchecked for mobile versions, so that I always get the full versions of web sites when possible. I just checked the mobile version of this site and it looks no different than an app would. How did I miss it too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 I posted about the board updates and the new iPhone app in these threads. I downloaded the iPhone app, but have yet to use it since the mobile skin for the board is really good, imo.BTW, before the update, the mobile skin really stunk.

Locate the "version" dialog box at the bottom left of the page. If it says "IP.Board", change it to "IP.Board Mobile". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Wheel Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 I think Jim might have tweaked the skin a little bit today so it looks a little different. Also, if you are on your iPhone I'm guessing the skin appears a little different and shows you that link to get the app. On Android and my PC the mobile version looks like this at the bottom left: Whereas the regular version looks like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 However, no matter what I use, I still can't spell worth a darn. No worries, I don't think anyone under the age of 30 can spell at this point anyway. They just make up their own words. MAN, I got so hammered last night...I was OBLEVIATED!
