TMS App/iPhone problems
Hey guys/mods... after a few questions I've learned the mobile device users can't see the tabs - like New Posts, Search, QuickLinks/today's posts; and can't see smiley's.
I don't know a dang thing about mobile devices or apps, or which is causing the problem that the site can't be fully seen.
But it is leading to numerous DUPLICATE threads over and over again.
And not seeing/using smiley's has lead to a number of threads deteriorating in politeness and locked threads because readers often don't know that a poster was kidding.
Can you fix the TMS App so users can see the site more fully??

As an FYI, the TMS App for droid is working well for me. I can't see the 'smileys,' but I can see/read the smiley text (: lol :, : nice :, etc.).
Also, multiple threads are nothing new to the internet/forums/TMS. Whenever there is a new 'hot topic' people post about it multiple times and in some instances, multiple locations.

That's how I see all the current threads across the forum.

I'm able to view the smileys but you would have to click on the actual message while viewing the thread. Or u will just see
: nice : I put spaces purposely because u will just see the words rather then the actual smiley.

I like the iPhone app. I read all the new posts on the subscribed tab then go to the current tab to see what is new. I can r"ead" the smileys. I actually find the iPhone app better than the full blown web page apart from picture resolution and that I suck typing on the tiny phone keypad
I know apps get updates from time to time, and some users don't download the updates. Maybe that is contributing to some of the problems.
