I agree and my main "issue" is that there is no "sync" between the browser version of FT and the mobile app and no option to view first unread post in a thread (or even have the app default to viewing the first unread post) and it is a royal pita to scroll the numbers to get to the page of a thread where you want to see the first unread post.

That is my #1 complaint about it, too.

And if "the other place" can have an app that does just that, why cant F/t?

And then to be greedy, I'd love to see the option of being able to log in to F/t with the e-mail one has on file with f/t for Talkmail, thread updates and member messages as for me, using various iPhone apps which do allow signing in with an e-mail address, it's a simple copy once and paste many option which I find quite useful
