Thanks, Big Tudor. And are you running the latest version of the iOS app?
Aha! Was running on v1.1.2. Now installed v1.2 and no longer getting the error. Thanks CleelB. In my defence I would have expected the updated version to automatically appear in the app store in the same way that other apps do. Have I missed something?
Good to know that the latest version worked for you guys, Big Tudor and herman. Notification of new app updates may be up to user settings in iTunes or on individual iOS devices, but we'll look into ensuring our updates are visible to users.
Hi, Using it on an IPhone 4 and would like to know, if there is a chance of viewing pictures and Videos as well, May be with a toggle on/off option, regarding type of internetaccess (WLAN / 3G)
Flying Bull, you should be able to view photos within the app (load times may vary based on hardware and connection speed). Do you experience otherwise, even after waiting for images to load?
I don't know if playing YouTube videos would be possible within the app, but I have put in an improvement request to our mobile development team. Thanks for the suggestion.
Hi CleelBe, I found out about the images, that when I open a single answer in a thread, the images will be shown, which is a little bit different to surfing with a browser, where the pictures are displayed within the thread itself. Because it works, no hassel needed. Tx for your reply. Flying Bull
Won't let me view my profile on the iOS version. Gives an error saying there's an issue between the app and my connection. Strange because everything else seems to work fine.

Downloaded the app and I have to say I liked it. I do, however, have a suggestion: Would it be possible to have a "Remember Me" type option at the login page so we don't have to type the username and password everytime we want to visit the forum?
Thanks for the interest! It's a good question. Currently there are no plans for a dedicated iPad app, though that could change given sufficient interest. In the meantime, we suggest visiting the main site rather than using the mobile app on iPad
