no more android app? [no - no current plan for Android app]

Didnt even know about this forum until i stumbled upon it this morning... my android app has worked (mostly) fine for as long as i've had it, but starting this morning it won't work at all. Searching led me to the ios thread, but that doesnt mention android as far as i read. Am i now forced to use the annoying mobile site instead of my simple to use app? The app gives a 'required client information missing' message now (version 1.5.1)

I have used it since then too. It is much more difficult for me to read on the regular website with the scrolling and zooming. I do hope they bring back the app. I wonder if they just turned it off completely or if it had to do with the Android update yesterday.

Ditto. Same issue.

Please can we have this back, the mobile version of the site is awful in comparison to this brilliant app.

Yes it seems to be back online. Good thing you checked again raybolt, I was almost going to uninstall it . I use the app on a daily (sometimes hourly) basis to get the newest posts and I don't know what I would do without it.

Not sure IB had anything to do with it since their suggestion was to use the mobile version of FT, but glad it worked out

Cheers.

The app is considered unsupported at this point, so it is no longer offered in the app stores. We hope to have a new mobile solution before too long; meantime you can use the full site, or the limited m.flyertalk.com.

Realize you can't give exact dates, but is 'before too long' Q4 2014, Q1 2015, sometime before the end of 2015?

Cheers.

It's high priority, and there are other biggies tech is working toward. If I had to guess I'd say by early 2015, maybe sooner.
