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?

For a lad who works at a computer all day I appear to be a bit thick lol

What are push notifications mate and how would that work with my phone?

Even if you weren't browsing GOT, you'd get a notification of an alert.
It would drive me mad. Could have some fun with it by keep tagging @Bryan though.

Cheers Wooly.

I'd actually like this but only if everyone else was on board - unless of course it was something that could be switched on and off in your preferences?

Can't lie mate, I don't know how it would work. I just googled it and then strung a vaguely coherent sentence together, which is pretty much how I've been stealing a living for the last ten years too !

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

It's not that catchy is it?

Well, if they ever wanted one, my mate owns APPosing and is a massive blue. Hed always be able to sort it out cheaply enough..

Thanks pal.

Mobile is very important to us, we've put considerable effort into making GOT optimised across mobile/devices in the last 12/18 months in particular.

That in mind, I'd happily pay for an App (they're nowhere near as expensive as they were 2 years ago...) and we could even have an app for free (charging users to download it). Dave at apposing has gave me a shout on this several times. Only last month did I say;

GOT app, I can't see what it would do? We have a responsive site with push notifications available, though all ears if I'm missing a trick?

So yeah, now the site is responsive (responds to any device), I can't see what an App could offer.

Yeah, was just a thought. And yes its Dave whos my mate!

No doubt he was trying to drum up business! lol

...Father Christmas brought me an I-Pad for Xmas, I appreciate there isn't a GOT App but is there a way of creating a shortcut or something for ease of navigation. Funny enough, when I go into my laptop I have a GOT logo on the toolbar, not sure how I did that but I presume I could do something similar.

I'd appreciate a step by step steer for an old simpleton like me?

.....cheers. My I-pad had a different screen shot but I was able to follow your advice and now have a GOT icon/shortcut on my homepage. All sorted, thanks again.

I just leave the GOT page open in Safari....

Only problem I have (on Android) is that creating a bookmark opens the site in a new tab, irrespective of whether you already have GOT open on an existing tab.

So I tend to just leave a GOT tab open all the time and just click 'new posts' to refresh it.
