yeah I looked last night but didn't see it and checked the Amazon store as well. Maybe we can get one for those of us with Nexus 7 Tablets and Galaxy phones

Now if they could just add an RSS feed... we'd really be cooking.

Default app?

Just curious...

why is an APP necessary to use AGF on portable devices? Until last month I had an android and (the one or two times I wanted to), just accessed the forum using Safari. Just checked and I did the same with my iPhone.

What does the APP have that a bookmarked Safari page lacks?

For me at least some things just do not work well on a mobile browser like search.

Hi UK-Fretter...

It does.

The browser works better for me on the forum on my iPad.

On the iPhone the app is better for me.

It's a lot easier to use because the App is designed for a very small screen. I installed it when I got my iPhone a couple of months ago. I'll admit, I never use it since I always have my laptop with me when I travel but I'm sure there will be times I will.

Any iPhone app can be used on the iPad as they all must past a test by Apple for graphics resolution to do so. In addition, there's a "2X" option to just increase the size, but it doesn't maintain the same quality in pixels.

But, I agree with Larry, on the iPad, I would just use the browser. However, on the iPhone, the AGF site doesn't resize to a mobile browser size so its much easier and friendlier to use the app.

Of course, the easiest is always to just use a computer, but it's entertaining to use the iPhone app for reading enjoyment.

Is there way to see ALL posts since the last time I visited? I can only see a few new posts and that is it. I tried to do the search feature and found I can choose all posts since last visit, but it appears it needs a keyword entry to do a search.

Stumped in Seattle?????

Did you already try tapping the "Forums" button at the top and choosing the "Forums" link in the menu? It should show all the threads.
