Title: Android forum app
Post by: elbandi on October 28, 2013, 08:19:40 PM
Hi,

I started to develop an Android app for this forum. Unfortunately SMF hasnt API, so i have to use the pages. It's not easy, but not impossible as well.  8)

Here is some screenshot: http://i43.tinypic.com/kdlhdd.png (http://i43.tinypic.com/kdlhdd.png), http://i43.tinypic.com/207uyiu.png (http://i43.tinypic.com/207uyiu.png)

Is there demand for such a application?

Very nice. Maybe you want to look here to: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=165779.0

And can improve on this, so you don't have to do work that has already been done.

Thank you. Can't wait until it's finished. I would pay up to BTC 0.05 (once) for an app that improves mobile use. But it has to include Watchlist and Posting.

I'd check it out as well!
Definitely would use it on the go. I would prefer a tapatalk plugin, but that comes at a cost not all forum owners are willing to take.

Regardless, I'd say you'll get a few downloads. In order to keep those users, the app has to be fairly good.

This app fetch data from the site directly. no need third party site, etc.

forum thread view&posting are working. messages/search/watchlist on the way.

If thats are completed, i will release a alpha version for testing.
