Any applications exist for iPhones and other mobiles running under Android to read PH?
Much obliged.

nope, I think it is on their long list but towards the bottom.

There are forum apps out there, but mainly for BB code, etc. PH is custom code I think, so none of them will work.

I don't see what benefits an app would offer over the mobile site.

Just save the PH homepage to your home screen - you even get the smiley! smile

Besides the lack of a 'delete' button and the occasional double posting issues, what is wrong with the mobile site? confused

can't say I've ever used the mobile site on my Iphone, find it much easier to just use the full site

Well the lack of a delete button and the double post issue are intrinsically linked and one could easily be solved by adding a delete button

No report button

No access to the non car bit of the classifieds

Constant 4000 millisecond timeout issues if the main site is running slow

No quote all button

No search access

But apart from that it is peachy

I try not to use it tbh and just use the main site but occasionally my mobile browser directs me back there

Great thanks, I didn't know this was possible, also done with some other sites.

To be honest, with an iPhone 4/4S (or in fact probably any high res screened smartphone), I prefer to use the full website, rather than the mobile version. I'd keep the mobile version for less capable phones.

What about making the forum available through the Tapatalk app? It works really well with meganesport.net and detailing world forums. Just a thought anyway
