mobile access

[koony]

Im writing this message on my Nokia E72, its great that you guys have worked hard to achieve this. However what I have visited so far has been a bit of a cluster bomb LOL. I hope that in future you will continue to update this usage, such as in the way of interface lol. Also i dont know if some navigation links/operations are quite working correctly, i will post later if there are replies. Sorry if this is in the wrong place, takes time to check things correctly this way lol.

When using an Ipod I normally use the normal skins and not the mobile skin, because I like to see what has recently been posted rather than having to click on it to look for yourself.

Asked about Tapatalk multiple times (which works on just about every phone imaginable), they said no for some stupid reason (seeing as it's free :rolleyes:), and Jamesy doesn't appear to like the vBulletin iPhone app.

The staff don't seem to like the fact we think the mobile skin is **** :)

[Mr-Trainor]

The mobile skin is good and I use it every day but it lacks some features like reputation and multi quote which can be annoying :P.

[Casanova]

the mobile skin is awful :S? I've tried twice with my blackberry bold 9700 and it was all jumbled up. it's a disaster.

(may be an exaggeration)

[Jamesy]

Can people provide screenshots of what the mobile skin does on these devices? I've only tested on Android / iOS.

[Richie]

loading hxf on my mobile is a big nono, takes about 5mins to load one thread lol

[Samantha]

I can't even get HxF on my phone anymore it's so ancient; my other phone broke. And the other one I have is a big stupid pile of crap as it blocked HxF I used to be able to get on it via google and not just going on web but to no avail now.

Anyway, I use the mobile skin on my dsi, I find it quicker to use, but it annoys me that I can't click 'You have a new visitor message' I have to click 'Samanfa' and read it that way.

[Jordy]

Don't know what you're on about, used it on Windows Mobile, iOS and Android fine without any problems, can't fault it anymore tbh.

[Jin]

I have no issues on windows, android and iOS.

I wish intelligent people posted in these threads, as oppose to trolls/griefers.

The reason we don't want to use tapatalk is because we don't feel users should have to purchase the app if they want to reply to threads. Especially users who only use Habboxforum, what the "genius" above failed to mention is that the read-only app for the iphone and android is free, the app which allows you to edit and reply to threads is not free.

[Casanova]

the mobile skin is all jumbled and takes longer to load than if i view the forum as normal and not as mobile.

when i use it as non-mobile it's fine, some things over lap though. if i can be arsed i'll take screenshots and post them :)

[Jin]

Would be nice, we do appreciate that its not easy to print screen on mobile devices.

[Recursion]

In reply to Jin's negative rep about using mobile apps, can you not at least make a more touch friendly mobile skin?! Have you tried clicking tiny text links that are close together?! :P

[Casanova]

im sure there's a few apps to do it. i'll check later on.

There already are, but for various reasons apparently cannot be used :P

Which links? I've not run into any difficulty on a smaller screen than yours with fat fingers. We keep blabbering on about screenshots because there are a lot of links Tom ;)

[Casanova]

no, apps to screenie on your blackberry. and there is, i'm downloading one the now and i'll take some screenies and email them to myself, upload.

[Jin]

I have been fine with links on my iPhone which I feel has a far more klunky touch screen then the android phones I have tried.

[Recursion]

Fat finger syndrome is a problem in this case, particularly the top 2 and bottom 3/4. Selecting a page number is hard :(

[Casanova]

the only issue i have with habboxforum non-mobile is some of the links merge and it's quite 'heavy' to browse, ie it takes a while.

i really dislike the mobile site, it takes LONGER to load.

here are some screenshots. they were taken with an app to screenie so ignore any watermarks!
