    It is such a pain to browse this site on my phone when the buttons are impossibly small to click. Thanks.

    How much would you be willing to pay for an app?

    Wasnt expecting a troll response so quickly. Anyway, there are tons of websites that switch to a mobile device format when browsed. Do thy charge their users for this convenience? No, they do not.

    I think we've all proposed multiple stuff over the years (tapatalk, forum runner, etc) . I doubt it will ever happen but if so I'd be more than willing to pay a fee for an app though.

    I think ATW was making the point that your suggestion would carry more weight if you were a "contributing member". ;)

    GREAT... let's propose something that already has been proposed in 34610874 other threads in this same section of the BBS... and let's NOT even look for it on the first or second page of the FEEDBACK... LET'S. :rolleyes:
    Fixed your post for you, sir. :p

    If Clutch somehow made a mobile app and charged idk say 1.99, I think everyone with smartphones that browse clutchfans would buy it.

    They probably have folks who are employed full time to create apps or layouts for those web sites. Perhaps if you were a contributing member, your request would have more merit.

    You can install Tapatalk, forum runner plugin for free, but it will probably require and update to the forum software which takes a bit of time. I have done it for a number of forums I admin.

    so only paying members can suggest ideas that would improve the forum browsing experience for everyone?

    I have never seen this policy before in my life real or internet.

    Perhaps if there were a smooth mobile browsing experience on here, more people would pay for it.

    There's really no legitimate reason for a mobile version of this site to exist.

    (sorry ... was fixing an issue for another user)

    I did one months ago and like most things (cough, the Texans style), I stop at 95% done for some reason. I want this to only be available on mobile devices, and it got messy when I was running scripts as it would appear on IPads, etc.

    Anyhow, for one day, feel free to test out the mobile style on your mobile devices. Go to the bottom left and choose "ClutchFans Mobile (BETA)". It's not done and some features are not available, but let me know if this improves your mobile experience.

    Thanks!
