Mobile Apps for IP.Board Update


Recommended Posts

Invision Power Services, Inc. is pleased to announce the update of our iPhone and iPad app is now available!

 

You can download the update to our iPhone / iPad app in the Apple App Store. This update fixes bugs reported in previous versions. Please be sure to let us know if you experience any issues.

 

About the iPhone and iPad app for IP.Board

 

Our iOS app for IP.Board allows you and your members to easily login, browse, and post to your IP.Board community anywhere they are. The app remembers their login, has quick links to often used features, and allows your members to upload images to IP.Gallery, and even has Push notifications for new activity to encourage your members to come back to your community.

 

The app is free for anyone to download from the App Store and members can add the logins to all the various IP.Board-powered communities they visit to easily browse and keep up with all their conversations. Push notification service requires an active IP.Board license.

 

 

Future Improvements

This release only contains bug fixes as we wanted to get things working better before getting into new features. Upcoming improvements in the mobile space include further improvements to our iOS app, Android app, and white-label services. Here is a quick overview:

 

iOS

 

We will be further improving the stability and speed of the app. Future versions of IP.Board will also add support for other areas like IP.Gallery and IP.Blog viewing and posting blog entries on your mobile device. The iPad experience is also a big area of focus as everyone with an iPad knows how fun it is browsing communities.

Hmm . . if I translate your last post correctly into English, Viggen, does that mean that I can now look at UNRV Forum on my iPod Touch? :P

OK - I downloaded this App, and am happy to share the findings with you all.

 

I downloaded the app to an iPod touch. It took a small amount of setting up before seemingly 'Loading' indefinitely. Having eventually given up and re-launched the app, it then worked well, allowing me to set up UNRV in my list of boards. (there was also a directory of forums, but UNRV didn't seem to figure in the list anywhere).

 

Upon accessing the forum, the app merely seemed to give access to the web page, viewed as it would be in Safari or similar browser. Sadly, this is not really suitable for a small screen such as a smartphone. Also, despite my having enterted my screen name and password, it didn't automatically log me in.

 

In short, I'm not sure what this app offers over merely storing the website URL in your faourites and accessing via a browser. Shame, as it would be wonderful to have a truly mobile version of UNRV.
