CruisePirate Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 Is there a mobile friendly app to interact with these message boards? Please don't say just use a mobile browser, that's not very friendly option. I use Podcast Addict to read and follow along via the RSS feed but I can't see pictures or post any comments this way.

twangster Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 No app for this site. Find a browser that works for you, I just use the native browser on my Apple devices. Baked Alaska 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baked Alaska Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 I have a Samsung Note 8. I use the Google app on my phone to interact with the boards. I can see pictures, too. If you're using an Apple device, I'd suggest downloading Google if you're having problems with your Safari app. Rebecca Ann 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here I have saved page as a favourite which means an icon appears on homescreen just like an app page. Matt and wllm1969 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's much better now and I can be much more active here. Matt and SpeedNoodles 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I used to use for a different message board before they disabled the functionality. I tried using it back some time ago for this site but it didn't work, it's not compatible.

CruisePirate Posted October 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 OK pinging @Matt Me and the mobile browser are getting along very well . Only one small feature request, can you add a "Go to top of page" link at the bottom? I read in chronological order and when I get to the end (bottom of page) I want to mark everything as read and have to scroll and scroll and scroll to get back to the top in order to do so.

Glad it's working well for you! The message board software is created by a company...but, on my iPhone, I can double tap the very top of my screen and it will scroll you to the top.

Atlantix2000 Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 There is a "mark site read" at the top and bottom of the page (at least on the full website). If that's what you're clicking, no need to scroll to the top! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 Your Firefox browser is (artificially) zoomed in. To fix it, press CTRL and 0 (zero) at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest you adjust your computer's monitor resolution, rather than artificially zooming with a browser. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/14108/windows-7-change-screen-resolution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
