How do you visit the forum via your portable devices?

[xxMATTGxx]

This isn't going to lead onto anything like our own forum apps or anything like that. I am just curious on how many users actually visit the forum via a portable device and if they do, which option do they use to browser and use the forum on such devices.



Mobile Phones / Smart Phones
Tablets


If you could vote in the poll so I can see the amount of people who just use the site itself via one of the skins or use one of the applications available on many devices.

Poll Options Explained:


Full Site Skin - This basically means one of the normal skins you would normally use if you were on your computer.

Mobile Skin - The mobile skin that is avaiable to you which is made by vBulletin

Tapatalk - Phone/Tablet App

Forum Runner - Phone/Tablet App

None of them - You don't visit the forum via a portable device.

Oh I just voted for mobile skin but I sometimes use Forum Runner, it depended which phone I was using, and the fact I didn't know that when it said there were apps available for Habbox Forum (Tapatalk/Forum Runner) we didn't actually have to download one lmao :P.

[Rachel]

I use full website all times :P

[Red]

full site :)

[Ms.Aquamarine]

On my iPod Touch (and sometimes Kindle Fire) I use the full site skin. :)

[Nick]

Voted for full site

[Martin]

On my ipad I use the full forum skin

On my Phone I sometimes use the mobile skin (for visitor messages etc)

but most the time I use tapatalk 2 xD

Personally on the phone I find tapatalk easier to use, but not for visitor messaging and stuff :P

[FlyingJesus]

Oh I have a smartphone I just don't use it for Habbox I don't see the point when the only time I want to use the forum is when I actually have time to sit down and get into it :P

[Martin]

I guess its mainly for the addicts with no lives who have nothing better to do than browse the forum during their lunch break at work etc :'(

[Zelda]

Full site skin for me, most of my forum use is on phone really :)

Blame vBulletin for not making suitable mobile skins.

Agreed with this lol :)

plus I ain't paying for a app just to visit a forum lool

[Jurv]

i always use the full site skin on my ipod cos i wanna see notifications

[j0rd]

I use Tapatalk mostly, full site skin sometimes and Forum Runner rarely. I just have to be awkward :D

[Lee]

Mobile and Full skin in Indigo :)

[lawrawrrr]

Crappy mobile skin on my phone even though I loved the old one, my phone can't handle loading the full site

then Tapatalk or the full site on my tablet depending on which one hates me less

The thing is this is actually true, to even use Habboxforum on a mobile device is ridiculous.

well that's a bit harsh, what about when you're not on your laptop because it's broken or it's overheated or you bought a tablet so you don't always have to lug your laptop around everywhere or the internet is down and you have 3G.... there's so many reasons other than being addicted, which I guess is what a lot of people do do, but it's not ridiculous when there's tons of genuine reasons.

make an appppppppppp or something because the mobile skin is pretty hard to use because its long and stuff and you cant even rep

[GoldenMerc]

Don't think you can rep, you def cant view or reply to vms on tapatalk which is a shame. Its so much work for a app, altho i'd pay a couple of quid for a app, So if 100x done that, thats £200. Could get a nice looking app for that ;) sort of an investment.

[xxMATTGxx]

Use Tapatalk :P

[lawrawrrr]

Use Tapatalk :P

can't rep or read/reply to vms on there either?

[xxMATTGxx]

Never tried to rep via a mobile device so I wouldn't know. An app made by Habbox wouldn't be ideal as we would want one that is cross-platform.

[sex]

i'm not paying for taptalk ;l

[xxMATTGxx]

i'm not paying for taptalk ;l

Going to have to deal with the mobile skin until vBulletin sorts themselves out :P

[lawrawrrr]

Can't we have the old mobile skin back? At least that one had all the features...


and also I was saying you can't, not asking haha.

[Tunechix]

I use my tablet and I use my browser to see the mobile skin. It keeps me entertain during school. Its pretty cool

[Mr-Trainor]

I use the full skin (Dojo :P) when on my iPad, and if on my iPhone I'll use the mobile skin - but rarely use the mobile skin, only if I reallyy can't get on my iPad and need to get on the forum asap :P.

[Chris]

Mobile skin on iphone and the full skin on ipad. I do have tapatalk but I don't really use it. :P

[orientalframe?]

usually use the full site skin on my phone :)

i've asked for it back so many times but matt g is grumpy and says no

[xxMATTGxx]

I didn't know putting a skin back on the forum that is broken is classed as me being grumpy but fair enough.

[wixard]

WELL FIX IT THEN MAYBE

[xxMATTGxx]

Maybe but it isn't a priority.

[wixard]

judging by your poll results you probably should make it a priority

[xxMATTGxx]

The poll doesn't mean anything, I did state that in the first post. Just because a lot of people use the full skin on their mobile phone doesn't mean they are demanding for the very old and broken skin to be brought back. Faster internet and more capable smart phones with decent browsers such as Google Chrome make it able to be able to use full website versions of forums and so on without having to use a "Mobile Style".

Other parts of Habbox are more priority. It isn't like Habbox is without any mobile phone options, there is a skin that you don't like and there is apps available to make it easy for users to browse and use a phone across various of devices.

[lawrawrrr]

v7 -> fix mobile skin

okay thank you

if i knew how to design a skin I WOULD

[Chippiewill]

v7 -> fix mobile skin
We already cancelled V7 to work on mobile skins. Sorry.

[Jackuffmarshall]

I use full site skin on my ipad and I dont go on hxf on my phone or ipod. If I did I would use main site anyway.

[Tom]

Now I mainly use the full site skin but it depends on what device I'm using. I also use the mobile skin and Tapatalk.

[:Markster:]

The mobile skin takes a bit of getting used to but yeah, that's what i use on my Galaxy S2
