2) Hyperlinks added by members don't seem to work always.
3) Signature does not sync to the web setting.
4) A thread is automatically marked as read when visited via "Subscribed" or "Participated" irrespective of whether the thread is actually opened.
5) Search functionality doesn't seem to work at all. Irritating to see irrelevant results.
6) Some pictures in posts appear as attachments rather than thumbnails.

It has been a bit of time from the old version and I seem to have learned to live with this version. For sure the earlier version was easier and likable but don't remember much now.

Thanks R for editing my above quoted post and asking me to add examples. I have the screenshots from that day, but I am unable to upload them via this app (reason noted below). Sorry am too lazy to forward them to email then download and upload using a laptop.
I would like to add,
1) The "EDIT" information is mot available on the app. Ex: R edited my earlier post but such information is available only on web view.
2) I do not know how to edit a post, neither using app nor in Web View.
3) In timeline view, same threads (like two or three) appear twice especially after ads.
4) Unable to upload images using app. Upload Fail: User may not have access to this feature error.

Thats all I really want. Ease of usage, navigation and posting should be of paramount importance.

The phone app issues I faced on IOS

1. Broken images
2. Loading time ( takes forever for images to load even while using 3G)
3. Cannot upload images on cellular network, only wifi
4. App crashing once a while
5. Long PM messages are not being shown, need lo login on desktop to check the entire mesage.
6. Few links in a post do not open at times.

Amar, use the email notification system in the site, it even let's you decide how often you want the emails to come (immediately, daily, weekly). Works like a charm for me

Coming to the app itself; I really, really miss the ability to thank people for their posts. Guys, if you're listening... Me needy thanks in app. Mucho gracias.

It would have been very pleasing, if we had got a notification for every time our posts have been quoted. But notifications just don't work in the new app. Looks like I shall follow your route now. I wish the old app was still available on the AppStore. And yes guys please add the THANKYOU button. If would be very easy while on the move.

Thank you Dry Ice, a4anurag and Thad E Ginathom for the clarification. Appreciate it.

One more query as well as suggestion. Could we have the 'Thank you' and 'Multi quote' features on the mobile app? And also a way to view thanks given for each post? These seem to missing on mobile app.

Multi quote feature is available already in the Older App of Team BHP. No idea about the newer one as I haven't updated it.

For the Multi-Quote:

1) Click on the Grey bar that displays the handle name and post count. As below.

Name:  ForumRunner_20140813_104946.png
Views: 387
Size:  185.8 KB


2) Click on 'Select' for the two or more pays that you want to quote:

Name:  ForumRunner_20140813_104956.png
Views: 357
Size:  106.5 KB

3) Click the menu button (Left key for most of the smart phones)

Name:  ForumRunner_20140813_105005.png
Views: 327
Size:  153.2 KB

You'll find "Multi-quote reply" as an option. Click on it and your good to go.

For viewing the "Thanks" for any post:

Team-BHP App for your iPhone / iPad / iPod Touch-screenshot_20140813105425.png

It appears automatically at the end of every post.

Like the one above. A thread created by you on you Yeti.

Hope this helps.

Anurag.

Thanks a lot a4anurag for the detailed explanation. Unfortunately the app for iphone seems to be completely different. I can't find multi quote and thanks options on the iphone app for T bhp. Can't see the thanked-by list of any post either.

Sorry I din't mention I was talking about iphone app. Was not thinking apps could be different for different platforms.

This is for the Multi-Quote feature and the procedure for it:

And according to the thread that is running for the iPhone/iPad there is no way to see the thanks. Check the below link.

The earlier version of the App used to provide close-to-desktop experience with the features. I use the current one only for a quick read. Otherwise its always the regular site on Safari

The older version of the app for iOS had more features like multi-quote and thanks? If that is the case, I wonder how come they are missing in the present version.

Well yes, the older version had all those options. The change happened when all the mobile apps (iOS and Android) got shifted into a new platform.

I am not sure if the current one has got multi-quote feature. I have not tried it out

Mods, any chance of getting a better app? Or can we move back to the pre Tapatalk one? It's been several months and we have seen no updates here.
