TOPIC: [Forums] An app for android and iOS

[Forums] An app for android and iOS 8 years 7 months ago #187469

Server Name: not a server.. only the forums

Suggestion Title: an app for android and iOS opens the forums ??

How would it benefit the server: it will make everyone find anything in the forums easier with his phone ..

Potential Issues/Exploits:nothing

Additional notes: i dont know if this is a bad idea but I dont think ,, like imagine this .. an app opens the forums I mean you dont need to open the browser .. and you can like get notifications if someone replayed to your topic .. good idea right ? xD

sorry for my spelling and my grammer

I don't know about iOS, but on android why don't you use a built-in Bookmark widget linking to Zarp? An app is an overkill for that simple task.	FinalL Offline Fresh Boarder Posts: 14 Karma: 0

You would need some kind of interface (api) with access to database translating packets from the app to database queries. I don't think they would let some unofficial app SELECT, INSERT and UPDATE the database. Or you can also get the html of each page and try to deserialize it into proper objects in the layout to make such app. This doesn't look like easy to do though.

That's what i meant !!! that's exactly what i meant ..

when you use any browser in your phone and open zarp forums it will be like .. idk laggy or something like this

i mean you cant do Everything in the forums like in pc or laptop etc

sometimes when you press submit nothing happens and you try again and you press it like 8 times then it works ..

the forums are not perfect in the phones !!

that's why i said an app !!

cause a lot of forums have their own apps !!

and idk if this is hard ( i mean idk if it's hard to make an app ) but i think that there's some developers in the server right ??

This has been denied multiple times, mobile viewing for the website is simple enough with a web browser on your phone, but If I really needed to use the forums, i'd rather use it on my PC rather than an app.	Morgan Offline Legendary Member Posts: 15970 Thanks received: 6527 Karma: 105

Completelly unneeded. Already denied. On android and iOS devices you can put a widescreen view on the forums for more content (For example when was a post made) Besides, there is nothing wrong with the current state of the forums on browsers on mobile devices. Heck, I just wrote this on my phone.	ScorpionOnAcid Offline Diamond Boarder Posts: 3434 Thanks received: 452 Karma: -2

mobile-pixels.com/pin-webapp-website-android-homescreen/ lifehacker.com/5809338/add-web-site-book...r-iphones-homescreen Just put a bookmark of the forums on your homescreen. At this moment, there are exactly 0 reasons to build an entire (native) app, as it won't gain us anything.	illuminatixs Offline Expert Boarder Taste my rainbow!
