Title: We need an app for bitcointalk
Post by: jambola2 on June 05, 2014, 04:02:58 PM
We really need a reliable bitcointalk mobile app. I've seen a mobile site but it offers limited functionality. The only app I can find has generally bad play store reviews and tonnes of reported bugs.I don't really want to input my username and password onto any of them either.

Should the forums divert funds into an android and /or iOS app?

How often do you use bitcointalk on your devices and how much would you use an app if it was created?

When the new forum software comes out, there supposedly will be an app.

For now, Androids' can use this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.elbandi.forum.bitcointalk

I would definitely download an official Bitcointalk forum app - it would certainly be useful as there isn't a mobile version of the website - least not that I have noticed thus far.

I wouldn't say that it is a necessity per se, but I think that it would prove to be a hit.

I think it would be quite nice to have an iOS considering there is a Android app currently available.

Typical, I moved back to iOS around that time, now I'm stuck with nothing but the web version :P Will definitely be downloading an iOS version.

Let me quote myself :-

The only app I can find has generally bad play store reviews and tonnes of reported bugs. I don't really want to input my username and password onto any of them either.

That app is not used much , so I don't really trust it enough to input my username and password.

Secondly , all the reviews talk about the huge number of bugs , and the only 4-star review criticizes it for not being good and lauds it for "being a good effort"

I don't really see the appeal in apps especially as most have limited features. Bitcointalk on the mobile browser functions fine for me!

yeah, it's too risk to input our password there since no more update for that app

official android app for BTT seem cool

Why not ? Reading forum on a smartphone forces you to zoom all the time. Links and buttons are too small ...
