ive had a look and cant seem to see one anywere, Wouldnt it be a good idea to have one made for the forum setup say abit simular to the facebook app were it loads new replies up and stuuf, plus it could be a good way for the forum to make some extra funds? sell it in the appstore im sure all of us who use the forum would buy it if the price was right, or include it as a free download when you join up to the +member status.
anyway just a idea i had and just thought id share it.

There is a "forum reading" app out there that is compatible, but the forum is running an older version of the software. At present, there are no plans to upgrade.
This should really be in the forum feedback section I think - i'll suggest to the other mods that it's moved

I'm aiming to have this done before the end of the year .
I don't believe a dedicated application would provide much benefit over the mobile skin which will be introduced with the new software as at best, the application would be just another browser, except it'd only access TMF, which seems a waste of time to me.

Come on now, you don't have a special programme for the forum on your laptop or other PC do you? You use a web browser like anyone else. In fact if your home computer is an Apple it's likely your web browser might just be called Safari. Funny that.

Erm, there is an App. It's called Safari and it's an amazing thing that displays literally any web page you want!

Never? Really i must be behind with the times in the technology dept.
it was just an IDEA maybe to raise some cash for the site and also have a simple format so not to have your fone downloading every part of the screen using up your data usage allowance, but as it as been put in previous there wouldnt be much point due to the forum being updated to a new version which as a mobile version built in.

The bottom of every page has a button marked 'Lo-Fi version'.
Personally I find it easy enough to view on the 3GS without zooming, but then everyone is different. As said though, the new version will be smart enough to know what you are viewing on.
