Android Forum Software

Is there any chance of implementing one of the forum apps that works with Android?

I know the Apple fanboys have had TouchBB for ages, but with Android use now vastly exceeding iPhone numbers, can we please redress the current bias! Wink

I'd love to, but none of the Android-supported forum reader APIs support this forum software.

Updating the forum software is a big job given the number of modifications it has received over the years.

OK Martin - noted.

Do you have any plans to up-date the forum software sometime in the future?

Yes, but by-and-large this software works and people know their way around it Smile

babyRR runs the software I'm considering as a replacement.

Just had a quick look. It's a bit brighter than here, but I guess that's partly the colour scheme you've chosen and partly just a slightly different feel to it.

But, looks OK!

I presume that's easier / cheaper / better for some other reason than just upgrading to the latest version of phpBB.

If you do decide to change - any idea on a likely timescale? Are you thinking about this year, next or 2013! Laughing

Thanks!

phpBB 3 is not a significant step forward in functionality from phpBB 2 IMO.
