I do a lot of browsing on my iPhone and it's not as simple as it could be.

There's not a lot of work that would be involved in making this forum easier on the eye on a smartphone.

I know of a few people that I've spoken with that have expressed their interest in this idea.

What do you all think? Maybe with enough votes we could get Paul's attention.

e; Also, I'm not sure if there's a charge for putting apps onto the app store. If you made this app. $.99 I'm sure most of the users interested would still buy it - probably improving your revenue as well.

I've spoken with a few people who have offered to do the coding for him free of charge. No response to them though.

I'm sure if the community expressed enough interest that he could enlist the help of someone.

I don't use d2jsp on my mobile, just because of the inconvenience. I vote yes, would love to see this.

Exactly this.

Paul wrote this about a mobile version of the site, which is basically the same reason why an app won't be designed. The app version will need constant updates, and it will eventually get cluttered as users are constantly wanting more and more added. Just not worth it, considering the site works fine now on tablets and current phones.

I do not have any plans to make a specific mobile version of d2jsp at this time. I am, however, always working on keeping the site as small and fast as possible, which includes being as mobile friendly as possible as well.

Mobile phones are pushing more and more towards a desktop view of the web. I do not believe a neutered version of this site is the "wave of the future".

If there are specific page(s) that perform especially awry on mobile devices, feel free to make suggestions for improving their layout/display so they also look good on smaller screen devices.

Thanks

I would love if it went mobile. I browse on my Android a lot, and constantly zooming in and out becomes a pain! 100% yes.

I am just speaking in terms of the poll..

Pretty much what this topic is all about. Trying to browse through the forum is a real pain. You constantly have to zoom in and out to be able to read and scroll pages. I really dont think D2jsp is mobile friendly at all..

I have an IPod Touch btw, not an android.. I dont think it makes a difference though.

Voted yes ofc...

Exactly.

However, if that quote is real then this thread could be damn near pointless.
