App

[glorybound]

I would love to have an i-Pad app for this forum.

If that is an option, i'd vouch for forum runner. It is available as a free plugin for vbulletin

+1 for an ipad app...

Why not for iPhone?
Maybe there is already an app available?

Forumrunner supports them all.

I see but AFAIK it's a forum plugin, I mean it's an upgrade from the Chaos side ...or not? sorry the dumb question but I'm pretty new to whole mobile apps thing

[instinct]

Yes. It is a free forum plugin. And once it is enabled you can access the forum via their App, which is available for different platforms.

What is merits of App than web browsing?

What is merits of App than web browsing?

well, usually web pages are designed to be viewed using a desktop monitor and they (those monitors) are in general a lot bigger then mobile device displays; so using apps usually leads to better usability, accessibility and so on: they "translate" a standard format to a mobile format (well, more or less ...I think). For example nowdays online newspapers have a classic version for ordinary devices and a mobile version for phones or whatever; actually this forum has only the classic one so it's not so confortable to browse it with a mobile device.

Aha, I didn't consider it because I'm using new iPad with 2048 px.
Sorry guys.

me, too. I have both the i-Phone 4S and the new i-Pad. I rarely, outside of work, go to my desktop anymore. I would love to access via an app on both my phone, and my tablet.

I still prefer forum runner on the ipad. The standard page is not designed to be used with touch interfaces and i find myself zooming around etc. a lot. I find the apps way more convenient on both the ipad and the phone.

Our site admin said it should not be much of a problem to install Forum Runner, hopefully he'll get to it soon
