Where best to enjoy this forum...

[qwertyup23]

As far as I know, there have been attempts on integrating this forum in a friendlier mobile application for ease of access into some services, which was discussed into this topic already:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5296215.0

Though I do agree that accessing the forum is easier in a desktop setup, I would love if some would develop it fully in a mobile application. Given that lots of people are using their mobile devices almost everywhere, having a designated application for this forum would not only be helpful but also convenient.

I read and write on the forum from a computer; a large screen and a comfortable keyboard are big pluses. By being able to see the entire text, we also have a greater ability to move around the forum comfortably, even with such a strict style that some people find boring.

I think that is the point of this post- OP is asking if there are any applications or attempts on creating/developing a "friendly mobile" application to access this forum. While I do agree that this forum was created primarily to cater to PC or laptop users, there is always that demand for a creation in mobile applications.

If you want to see the desktop look then there's desktop mode or desktop in browsers but as other forum members explained that the text will be small so that you have to zoom it. Well, we all have our own preference on what we prefer to use like using computer or mobile devices. For me, I don't have any issues whatever I am using either a computer/laptop or a mobile phone for that matter and I can enjoy the same forum either using a computer/laptop or even a mobile phone since you can use either of the devices to read or respond to other forum members posts.

I have been using this forum on my desktop and laptop and so far I have never had any issue. Even on desktop I have zoomed the forum a lot so I can see the text fully without losing focus.

A few times I have used this forum on my smartphone but the experience on mobile screen wasn't good at all, and I found it not enjoyable.

I prefer to use this forum on either my desktop PC which's the main device that I use to browse this forum,  or on my laptop when I want some portability.

A look at the design of these forum speaks louder for it self... Saying you might not enjoy it using some devices...
When writing or reading I guess you know how it is with your android....
I didn't try it until reluctantly I decided to open bitcointalk.org on a computer system. Over there the difference was alarming compared to using your phone...
As much as it can be used on phone it is best with a computer system... I even noticed that without a computer system some challenges or updates one will not be able to follow up...

I think the interface is the same in both phone and system. The browser you are using is what makes the difference in the view of the forum, but the mode of operation and ways of navigating through the forum is the same for both phones and Desktops or PC.

The only difference you can see is when you install the BPIP extension on your system’s browser. If you install the extension, you will see different functions your phones will not show you direct, functions like merits in the last 120 days, forum ranks, number of posts in various sections, the sections you mostly interact in.
Using PC with extension installed makes the forum easy to use.

This forum is better on computer but I like it on some browsers on my Android which makes it nice for me. I like it mostly on VIA and Duckduckgo. If you know how to use PHX browser and disable the notifications and news feeds, it is also good on the device if you can always skip the ads. You will even like the dark mode on VIA and PHX. But I also like the automatic dark mode on my Edge browser on Windows. I type faster on phone which makes me use phone than laptop and I like the experience.

There are two places, namely when outside to use your free time using a smartphone but only to control and see market developments. and when I'm at home I usually use a laptop because I can work more optimally while sleeping and can also open several tabs or browsers. Another thing is to distribute working time because this is also a strategy to make more optimal and systematic use of the forum. Even so, still follow the suggestions and input from others, who knows if there is a better way.

Computer system and desktop are not the only devices that you can see the forum in a bold size, because they are also iPad, which when using you can see the forum in a bold size, but those three devices are not compared to the phone, because not only for the stress of zooming in or zooming out you might have some health complications that can affect your eye due to the prolonged stress to the eye that can cause migraine, dry eyes, blurred vision, and many more, but if you are using the desktop or computer you will have less danger to your eyes, so the best and recommended way to have a good experience in the forum is using the computer system of desktop, and again i can also recommend iPad, because of it size and is will have less stress to the eyes and movement because you can't move freely with your computer system as you will move with your iPad.

Most of the things that are invisible in the mobile phones are visible in the computer. And another this again. When you are uploading avatar and signature, mostly signature it is very simple when you used desktop computer or laptop to upload them. In mobile phones it is very difficult to highlight the signature text and insert in your signature space. But in computer it is very easy to highlight and put it in the space without stress. Just that most of us have mastered using the mobile phones than using computers.

The hovering of Op to see the prescription behind can be seen only on computer. So for those who are good with computer enjoying using computers compared to mobile phones users.

[Kelward]

I think that when it comes to convenience and clearer images, the computer is more preferable than the mobile phones, with a computer you can relax and engage in the forum activities business-like, than with a mobile phone. I however use a mobile phone, because I don't have the luxury of sitting down during the day to navigate the forum, I can move around anywhere anytime and easily bring out my phone and brows through. So a mobile phone is better for me because of easy accessibility to the internet anywhere that I am, so far there's internet connection in the location.

This is not only applicable to this forum but majority of the website are more convenient and clarity when browsing through computer. If you want to have the best experience, PC would serve you that but each individual has their preferred choice of browsing and interacting with this forum. I prefer to navigate on the forum using my phone for many reasons. Firstly, phone is more convenient to me since I have other activities to engage with offline, I don't often have time to sit and face the pc. Secondly is the faster typing. I type fast using my phone whenever I want to contribute to any discussion here because I'm too familiar with my phone keyboard. I am a slow typist when using computer, not that I'm not familiar with the keyboard but I don't often use it make it strange to me when typing. Pc of course offers best experience regardless but the choice is yours to go for the one that makes things easier for you.

In terms of ease of access, using a cellphone would be the best. especially those who are quite busy at certain times and want to access the forum during their break.
However, in appearance, accessing the forum using a cellphone is not comfortable. especially for those who experience problems with their vision. reading by having to zoom in and out is very torturous. especially typing with a keyboard on a cell phone, which becomes even more difficult if you have big enough thumbs.

Enjoying the forum on a mobile browser is not as free as enjoying it by opening it on a computer or laptop desktop browser.

The use of mobile browsers on smartphones is very limited in terms of area and each keyboard letter is very small which does not fit the size of my fingers even though I can also use it well even though there are difficulties in typing posts and other parts such as technical matters.

In my experience, using the desktop version of the forum is better than using it on mobile.

[Ricardo11]

This forum is most comfortable to use on a computer. I've been working on mobile for a long time, but I never felt satisfied working on mobile, and I couldn't work on mobile for long, and this forum is designed for desktop. So after working on mobile for meny day, finally I bought a desktop a few days ago. Now I feel very satisfied working on this forum through desktop and I feel satisfied working long hours.

[GxSTxV]

Give it some time to get used to it, and trust me, you will enjoy it on every device you use. The issue might be with your browser rather than the device itself if you didn’t enjoy the experience on android, moreover I have noticed that the larger screen is better. Personally, I mostly use my iPad with the Safari browser.



Xd, I think I might have developed an addiction to the forum because I can't resist not checking the updates every few hours, at work or while studying.
Try browsing Show unread posts since last visit. It will keep you updated on what's happening in the Bitcoin, altcoin, and crypto world. Take your time to engage in discussions with members here and make friends. The forum's design is simple and easy on the eyes to me, without too many visual effects.

[ferida504]

The forum by default operates on a desktop version and not a mobile so it will be better on the former but you can easily get used to either.
The new forum software should have a mobile version, so expect that for whenever that gets released.

It's more fun with a laptop or PC, apart from being able to open several windows, you can also read news sources more clearly, that way you can be more relaxed at work and focused, even when you're at the coffee shop you can have more freedom. Forums are more enjoyable if this is done, the important thing is that every job has to have love, even if the job seems relaxed, because if it is not relaxed then everything will feel boring. 2024 will become a reality in achieving this success.

You are a big lier and don't think that everyone in this community does not have a system. Well using a system gives you the organic design and makes it looks good but for typing and writing, phone is better for mist people not ust for me. Almost 80% of people in this community would prefer to use phone for writing compared to a system. There are some certain things you could want to do that would be better for you to use a system but their are still people that use phone for everything they needed to do on the forum including reading because you would not have to go close when you use a system. Also there are some certain browsers you are going to use that will make it difficult for you to enter the forum with you phone.

Mobile phone as the name implies is portable and will allow you access the forum at anytime even when on transit. When I understood that LoyceV has another account called LoyceV mobile, which means he visits the forum often on desktop. I can only visit the forum more often with desktop if I have a permanent online job that keeps me on the computer every time. For now, I use my mobile phone far more than I use a computer. I think that I'm just okay with the mobile version unless I have voluminous thread to make which involves charts and more.

One half what it uses to write in the forum so on neither use computer to make your post or you use Android phone to make your post was not most of us that uses a computer cannot type with a Android phone that is the difference between people that use computer to make a post and the people that use Android phone to make a post, like me I find it very difficult to make use of Android  they and its boring to me and I don't enjoy it for me I prefer using a laptop computer to make my post and it is faster for me

The first half of your post is unclear but I think I understand the latter part. Choosing between accessing the forum through a mobile device or pc is a personal preference so I’m not going to ask you how using a mobile device is “boring”. We all will opt for the one we are most comfortable with. For me, I often visit the forum through my mobile phone. My daily activities do not give me the opportunity to sit in front of a computer, but with a mobile phone I can access the forum whenever I want.

[Mpamaegbu]

Nothing is complete in itself without its demerits. Maybe PCs and desktops will give better coverage than mobile phones but have we also compared the comfort and ease mobile phones afford us over computers? You can't have your cake and eat it. I can't remember accessing this forum more than twice on computer since I got registered about seven years ago, I'm a phone person. Apart from the demerit of having to zoom in and out with phone, I prefer using mobile phones to PC. It's way comfortable for me. I can do my reading and posting even while on transit but that won't be comfy for PC users on transit.

The fact is that using the desktop is best when we come to do something big, which is in such a capacity that our Android phone cannot do the type of work you want to apply for the phone. And the most challenging reason that so many people's face why they're not used to computer systems or, let's say, laptops is because not all people know how to operate them. That's why almost all people prefer to use their mobile phones for whatever they want to do.

Like this forum, I know some people are using laptops to do their signatures, and according to them that, it's very fast for them to use the Android phone. But for me, I preferred to use my mobile, because I always took a laptop that I was not able to operate since it would not make my work faster the way I wanted it, and that's why I was proud of my Android phone by the time I'm used it for the Internet and other things.
