Grand old app

[Dubai Blue]

This is a question I guess for the @GrandOldTeam staff, but is there any chance of an iPhone app? Am sure the costs would be quite high, but even if it was a GBP1.49 download, i'd still be interested.

Anything in the pipeline?

I couldn't handle having all them unread emails, missed calls and what's app messages on my screen.

Open in Safari and then add it as a bookmark to appear on homescreen. The icon appears automtocally

Thanks Tony

It's prohibitively expensive to produce an app, hence why we moved to this new device-adaptive software.

If you want an icon on your phone screen, set up a web shortcut for it, as explained here; http://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/grand-old-app.68020/#post-2788477

cant we get an app on a season long loan? ffs!

...You'll realise an app is expensive and the new site runs well on mobile devices anyway.

It's not that catchy is it?

Been humming it all day tbf

Just buy a mug mate.

At £6.00 plus postage they're an absolute bargain, and you get a roll of sellotape thrown in for free !

Always good to see suggestions on how we can improve.

As for an App - what would it do? It's no longer just cost really, we're approached regularly from developers, we can get one for free (the developer would then charge for the app) but I never get a satisfactory answer to why anyone would use a GrandOldTeam app.

Forums would look for apps (as we did) when we were on a platform that didn't offer a decent mobile experience.

We're now fully responsive, which means the website should perform well on any mobile device.

I agree with you...there is no point. The only comment that I will make is my old phone did not like the new platform. It was like 3 or 4 years old, and the operating system was gash.

Looks good on iPhone, iPad and PC for me, no need for an App.

I would like something (on android) that would show at a glance if I had any new alerts.

Other than that I can live without one.
