Android friendliness

Post by Tom Allen »

Don't mind me, I was just wondering how friendly this is with my Galaxy S. Some boards and comment sections can be a bit wonky.

Hmm. The wrap looks a bit off. I composed that in wide-screen mode.

A mobile theme would be useful if it isn't much trouble, I use my iPhone quite a lot on the train, so would be good for then

I am an iPhone user, as well.

I have an iPad but haven't really warmed up to it. LOL.

Yea I have an iPad also, the problem with the iPad on the train is that it's big enough tat others on the train maybe able to see what I'm reading, which given the nature of this forum could be an issue, the iPhone is small enough though ;)

I don't see a way to add a mobile theme, but I can look into it some more. I find the forum looks fantastic on my iPhone...

Just sayin'. :D

The forum looks fine to me. It's just that on a lot of forums my phone does some odd things when I open up a comment box. No biggie.

If you search the app store for php forum viewer you will find a bunch. A couple look good but they require an addin to work. They have links to information and a download on them. It might be nice for those that use an iphone. Mobile safari does a good job but I have to do a lot of zooming and pinching to navigate.

I downloaded 'Forums Pro', I think it was 1.99 or so and it works without any addins. Not as full featured as I would like but it is pretty good for reading. My biggest complaint is that you can't quote text on a reply. Not that I would want to do a lot of replying on the iphone but maybe on the ipad.

Not much for PHP apps in the Android store.

I'm experimenting with different browsers, though. I was using xScope, which was pretty good, until the upgrade broke. I'm experimenting with Steel and Skyfire. Steel is nice, but it doesn't seem to wrap the text on a page when viewing, and I dislike side scrolling. Skyfire supposedly offers good video options, but I dont' expect to use that much.

Android's best browser is arguably Dolphin, but I use that as my main "vanilla" browser. No sense in having anybody use my phone and getting an eyeful of my history and bookmarks.

Skyfire seems to render the page normally, but typing in the box is still a bit wonky. I can't see a cursor, and for some reason I need to arm wrestle the text into position.
