Will you be moving to a different forum app for smart phones?
Man that REALLY sucks! Its just too hard to navigate the web page on a smart phone. I can't remember when I was this bummed last. Oh well, take care FF....
Yes, we are disappointed too. Was really slick on an iPad or phone.

Keeping Facial Forum safe is the priority, guys. ;)
Way to go, facialadmin.

Security and privacy are extremely important to this forum, but this really really blows. I usually surf FF from my phone due to convenience, and doing so from the browser is really onerous. Are there are options for iPhones by chance? This will seriously impact whether I renew my platinum membership.
thanks hun, i apreciate your point
TW: if i find one that does not compromise security, or reduce functionallity then ill look into it, but to be honest im always on here from my android, and the only thing that irritates me is that i have to zoom in to navigate.
tapa constantly locked up on me, and its full of security holes they shut down their network for 3 months due to security.

puppyboy obviously you used it to post countless times
hang on only 38 posts since 2005 thats a wopping 5.4 post per year
and one of them to criticise a decision made to benafit the forum in the long term.
taptalk is gone for what ever reason security lockups, whatever the decision has been made.
get over it and move on
Its a pitty, cause tapatalk was really nice alternative for smartphone users. Browsing the forun using f.e opera mobile is pain in the ass. someone knows similar app for android]?
Agree its a real shame but also security is important.
But its a real pain to browse the forum on smartphones: basically u either have to open pictures in a new tab (and on the iphone the max no of tabs is 8) or just open the image but when u go back the whole page reloads again.
Same on ipad. So some alternative would be nice. Or some engine (like the google picture search/results view) which would make life easier on smartphones.
I might be alone with this but i prefer(ed) viewing this forum on my mobile devices. I'm not saying i'm leaving the site for this, obviously i wont but this will make me view the site much less. My problem i know :)
On my Android phone, opening pictures in the browser is actually a far superior experience than with the Tapatalk app, which takes forever to load. With Angel Browser I just long-click on a picture and it opens in a new tab in the background. I'll just do this to multiple images and then I have a mass gallery in the background of pics. I think the limit is 20 or something, not sure.
The only problem is the zoom and horizontal scroll that doesn't leave a user-friendly experience for browsing.
thats exactly how i use the forum on my android, but anyway, we are currently working on a solution as we speak, so dont worry too much, it wont be too long before we have a new mobile experience.

There are two general groups of people here at FF, one is equivalent to the size of a mouse, the other the size of an elephant.
One group contributes and keeps the forum going, the other group uses up resources, takes a lot out without actually putting anything back in, and generally rides piggyback on the other.
Don't need to be Einstein to work out which group is which size really.

Within a short time we will be natively totally mobile friendly...
Watch this space!
I might be doing something wrong but no pictures are displayed in any threads since the update. I'm on iphone btw. Is it just me being stupid? :)
Hi all, forum runner is now available on ff.net, im using it and its perfect.

for all mobile device users:
the attachments are now viewable on our mobile style,
to use the style go to the bot of a page on the right is a dropdown box, click it and select default mobile style.

Got the mobile style working. Nice.
Only issue I have is I can't download the videos on my iPad. Whenever I download them I just get the attachment.php file.
Any ipad or iPhone users have advice? I'm new to apple land
Love the mobile site. Only thing is that there's no way to view subscribed topics.
Sure there is. Go to the 'more' button at the bottom and you'll find subscribed topics there.

Erm, I don't have a button that says that. Not on the main page or in the FF Menu area. There's a "more@vbulletin.org" link at the bottom, though, but that just takes me to liamwili's profile.
I also copied the full site's URL for the subscription page to my phone browser and it says that this feature isn't supported in the mobile site yet.
