Hello chaps and chapesses.

If we were to enable a plugin on the forum that allowed you to browse it using a phone/tablet specific application, is this something you guys would use?

I'm currently looking at Forum Runner:

(£1.28) Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... nner&hl=en

($1.99 = ~ £1.28) iOS: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/forum-ru ... 27234?mt=8

Any thoughts? Long term, I'm tempted to develop an LG custom app - although it would likely be Android only (as I don't own any Apple kit).

[edit] Regarding a point raised by Merlin below - there is a free version of Forum Runner for browsing only if people use their phones for that.

Yes. I'm mostly on the iPad!

No as I think my iPad does a pretty good job of it already. I never login when using my iPhone, just a quick browse.

Yeah I would, as I currently browse using my phone's browser which is tiny and have to keep zooming in and out!

This is actually something I thought about whether it would be possible a few weeks back, but never got around to asking the q!

No app - to be honest, it's not too bad at the moment - just make a nice responsive HTML5/CSS3 layout for it and it'll scale perfectly on any device.

I voted no, just because its displayed really well and is very easy to navigate on my Windows phone. But I think there seems to be a need for it on some devices

Yea it does display really nice on the iPad I admit. But iPhone it doesn't.

never tried it on my iphone so probably not but dont know about future if it was there i might do 1.28 doesnt seem much

android ftw.
