Is there a app yet or is it on tapatalk app there should be a passion ford app for the iphone.

Joe

 

No apps i dont think. I just can't use the PF website on my iPhone.....way too frustrating. A 'mobi' version of the site would be good.

 

I use it and other than not being able to get directly to my pms eveything else is fine, possibly smiley issues as well sometimes

 

Now the site has a lot of cash behind it, this needs to be looked at I think!

Not showing pics is really annoying too

 

The problem with using the full version in safari on the iphone is potentially that the page has a LOT of tracking code and adverts etc attached to it, which makes it very slow to load on a limited speed connection.
It still works of course, just a bit on the slow side.

If they use tapatalk etc then it would be a lot quicker, but they then wouldnt have all their tracking code and adverts, and obviously they want to force all that shite down our throats cause it makes them money to do so.

Will be interesting to see what happens!

 

Never heard of tapatalk tbh, but it looks promising

 

Fuck all will happen

 

What is taptalk?

Benni.

 

Absolutly no chance this will happen.

1. It will cost them money to make the app

2. Like chip says it will loose them revenue also.

The main prioity to this site is to make money, what is best for us only happens when it conincides with making them money.

 

What's the problem with viewing it on the phone? It works just like any forum does?

 

+1.

 

Just read up on it, and it looks similar to Echofon (twitter client). Gives you updates from subscribed threads in a way that is clear and managable. Using PF on the iPhone is pretty rubbish imo, not sure about other phones.

 

taptalk IS the app, passionford just nees to enable it

point 2, kinda true i guess as there are no adverts on taptalk

 

Didnt have a problem on the iphone that i know of.

My N86 can only view the site in mobile view though, due to the site not the actual phone, they should make it so that its permenantly full version like a pc, a mobile version was only needed about 5 years ago

 

I'm still confused.....

To be fair I don't have any issues browsing the web on me iphone.

 

There are no 'issues' really, i'm just impatient and PF takes ages to load.

 

Have you got a 3GS or 4? 'Cos on the 4 on 3G it's pretty damn quick!

 

Surely that's more about your connection speed rather than a fault with the phone?

 

PassionFord only becomes slow when I'm on a non 3G connection, so I don't bother. It is slower than every other site i use, but have no problems browsing on the IPhone.

I used the twitter app and joined PassionFord on their which seems to upload every thread posted, so I've stopped following it due to too much crap

 

But if you were on tapatalk it would be quicker on a slow connection than it is on a fast one now.


As per you, I find it bearable on the iPhone, but it would certainly be better without all the adds and spyware massively increasing every page's footprint.

 

I find it fine on my iPhone too.

 

Fine on my Iphone 3GS and on my Iphone 4 both using google to surf the net

 

The ESCOS site is on taptalk and it's way easier to use!

 

passionford takes ages to load on a pc never mind on a phone
