FT iPhone app
Is there a way to quickly refresh the messages on the FT iPhone app? I am new to the iPhone world, and recently downloaded the FT app.
When I go to the app, I see the forum messages as I left them during my previous session. They need to reload to get current messages. The only way I know to refresh the message board is to go out of the forum, and reload. Is there some trick I can pull while in the forum to refresh / reload? |
I find the Android app to be worthless. I suspect the same is true for the iPhone version.
Have you tried the mobile version of FT? I think you'd like it. |
FT iPhone app
I just downloaded the recent update to the iPhone app. It's failing to load the airline programs subforums. I click on airline program, and then nothing comes up.

I had a tough time with the airline program subforums. I found, with some effort, that holding down the little arrow icon would cause the list to load. It's buggy, but eventually I got it to work. |
To open subforums, find the small arrow pointing left at the top right corner of the forum; click it so that it points downward, and you'll see the subforums open.

Paul Posting using the mobile version instead :) |
Hmm... definitely not seeing that.
Are you on the current iOS version? I have iPhone 4 running on AT&T, iOS 5.1 and it's working great. I wish I could help some more, but maybe you can try deleting the app and reinstalling?

Still getting blank screen for airline forums (using iPhone app). If I toggle the arrow down, it lowers the screen and shows it being refreshed, alas still blank. All up to date... Posting using the mobile version instead :) |

Tried it again after a nice BNE-DRW-BNE break...working tonight. Still prefer the mobile version, but I'm just about to ditch the iPhone and its horrifically bad battery life for a Nokia Lumia, so the app and I won't be together anyway :) |
cannot post in airline forum
Hi while using an iPad or iPod I am unable to post in the airline forum at flyertalk. Technical update needed I guess.
|
Threads merged; please try uninstall/reinstall, as I cannot reproduce the error.

If not, what version of phone and iOS software are you running? |
A couple of comments and requests and/or suggestions
I do like the chevron for the sub-forums but in the next iteration of the app, is there any chance it can be moved to the left/closer to "Subfourms (xx)" as maybe it's me and my fat fingers ;) but more often than not, I end up hitting the reply button when trying to expand the chevron Could the subscribe feature at the bottom of the screen moved as again, with my fat fingers and flipping fast to the bottom of the page, I am hitting the button I do like the go to first unread feature but it doesn't work properly as there is no sync to what I read on-line to what I read on the app as when I use the feature on the app, it takes me anywhere from the first page to the second to last page and never the last unread post I viewed. Also, on a one page thread on the app, if I hit the last unread option, the page does not go to any post at all but rather the "little wheel" just keeps spinning around Is there anyway to mark forums read as there is with the on-line/browser version? Also, I have noticed that the app crashes much more than any previous version and usually after I make a post or hit the log out button Thanks :) |
FT iPhone app
Sorry was not clear earlier. When trying to create a new thread, while trying to chose a sun forum in cannot chose from within the airline programs.
|
I'll add this here as opposed to starting yet another iPhone app thread....
I am unable to read any of the announcements that appear at the top of each forum on the app as when I tap on it, it briefly changes to the word "label" and then shows a blank page |
