Tablet/Mobile Support Suggestion

Postby empy » Mon Aug 10, 2015 16:11

Hi,

I've been trying to access this forum via a mobile device. Although it is useable, the user experience is not that good especially on a 4.5 inch device (tablet support is kinda ok).

I've tried to search this forum for an Android app/solution, yet no luck.

I suggest we start supporting mobile devices. Fortunately there are already apps available for phpbb: in the past i've used tapatalk app (https://tapatalk.com). However this app requires forum administrators to install a third party plugin: https://tapatalk.com/start-here.php

Mobile app would be incredibly useful for our mafia game :)

What do you guys think?

Could be cool to make out website more mobile. I have to admit I occasionally use my tablet and phone to browse PS forums. Let's wait for techmonkey Warren and see what his thoughts are on this project :)
quoting deep:
henksmadje please read topic more carefully and other topics too where u reply, then u get the point and dont have to make stupid posts.

It was something on my todo-list, just not that high up ;)

I figured that most of us would be browsing the site on a desktop/laptop since we play ET (and other games) on those devices, but can imagine that you sometimes want to quickly check a topic on your phone/tablet.

I'll see if I can find some time but don't expect a set date :P

Some sites are better, some worse to browse on a smartphone. But let's face it, browsing comfort on mobile phone is nowhere near PC.
