Title: Bitcointalk app for iOS
Post by: Cryptopher on July 22, 2014, 09:33:06 PM
I've searched the app store but to no avail, I've found links online that lead to dead ends, some suggest that the application was removed from Apple's App Store, while some suggest that the app isn't available in my country.

I've searched the Meta sub-forum for iOS application and found only this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=640323.0

So I wonder, are there plans to (re)introduce a Bitcointalk application in the Apple App Store?

I've seen that there is and Android version, but I switched back over the Apple prior to joining the forum.

If you have a iPad or other tablet, you can simply your use browser to login to the forum and it works just as well as any app would.

Apple doesn't like anything that mentions bitcoin. :D
I'm sure someone will eventually make one, though. Your fault for switching to Apple. :P

That's not really true. They did previously remove bitcoin wallets, but nothing else related to Bitcoin. Besides, they already re-allowed wallets.

Apple previously did not allow bitcoin wallets, but they did allow bitcoin related apps, like zeroblock. IIRC apple did recently start to allow bitcoin wallets back on the iphone again.

Unfortunately for me I am using an iPhone so the website is a little cumbersome. I will probably end up switching to Android again in the future, get the app and a bigger screen. Would be nice to have the equivalent application available to Apple users too.

About 99.9% of my activity is via the browser on my machine, but I would probably be browsing the forums on the go with the application.

Try out http://bitcointa.lk when it's fixed. The Bitcointa.lk design is a lot easier to navigate on mobile devices than the standard one.

Thanks for sharing, I wasn't aware of this. Is this just a third party view of the forum, or was it commissioned by the forum operators? I'd feel a little anxious putting my credentials in anywhere other than here.
