Awesome. Thanks for the quick reply!

for those of you still interested about forum browsing via iPhone. the touchBB app downloadable from the app store works well and there are both free and enhanced paid versions available. I use it on a couple forums so I mentioned it to Dave and as of a few days ago, he says adding the code to allow it to work here is in the works and he'll post up in this section when it's good to go. for now if you want to download touchBB the easiest way to see if a site has the code up and running is to just add the URL in app and see if the forum comes up when you add it.

Great, thanks for sharing.

Dave...any time-frame on when the code will be in-place?

Just to clarify, I'm not certain which iPhone browsing software IB is going to install.

I'm checking on status and will post up when I know more or when available.

Sorry for the lack of response. We have been deciding what we will do with mobile templates, as the currently available ones have 1 of 2 issues
  1. The templates available integrate poorly with the forums
  2. The better ones require the user to pay for them.
After reviewing all available options, we have decided that we will create our own template for mobile devices.
The good part of it is that we can build something that will be much improved over currently available options, but it means that it will take longer than we would like to develop.

If it was cheap ($.99), I'd wouldn't mind buying the app...

But I don't mind a free solution either

^I agree, I wouldn't mind paying for an app - that puts the onus on those that would actually use the app instead of adding workload for IB to build a feature everyone may not use. After all, not everyone has an iPhone... yet.

i have both the free and paid versions of touchBB application for iphone. from what i see/have experienced its a solid VB browser viewing/posting app.. the only difference between the free and paid (.99 cents last i checked, maybe more now but who cares; there's a free one) versions is that "posted via touchBB for iphone" is appended to the posts you make on the forums using the free version... no big. anyway, tried them both on vipstylecars and 2 other forums. after i suggested to admin to add the code it took about an hour to work, so im sure its just a matter of a board Tech's time available/willingness to add the code as opposed to the time it actually takes to add..

you really checked out touchBB, (free and/or paid) on an iphone? ive been using it for a while now to view 3 other forums and have had no problems viewing all forums, creating new threads, replying/posting, PM'ing, posting pics, etc... not sure what is lacking there that you'd consider poor integration...

i noticed a small glitch in the software a month or two ago that kept sent PM's from showing up in the "sent" box but after mentioning it to the developers the bug was fixed in an app update a day later
