Forums presents your favorite forums in a simple and inspired interface that is designed exclusively for the iPhone platform. Forums works with most vBulletin, phpBB3, and IP.Board 2 forums. While we strive to support as many ...
Doesnt work with vbulletin Will not read threads Only the thread titles lists and are duplicated many times The login link is hardcoded and doesnt point to the right address This app doesnt work as advertised please refund my purchase Does not work
3 months have passed and this app still does not work You should be not be allowed to charge for this app until you get you act together Still not working
This app constantly crashes You should be giving it away Are You Serious
I dont have any problems with crashing that others do but some vBulletin sites dont display quotes properly causing quoted text to be mashed into the new text making reading difficult Otherwise its okay Still DEFINITELY not with the 3 they want for it Should be free at least until they can get it working properly No right to be payware
Cant log into a forum that is supposedly supported Wont let me log in
This app is a great starting point Only problem ive seen so far is how images in a thread dont show up where they are supposed to They show up at the bottom of each post They need to show up as a thumbnail where they are supposed to with the option to view as full size and zoom Great starting point
ok like most people said only thing you can do with this app is read posts and reply pages dont switch it just displays the page you were just on and it crashes PLEASE FIX THIS FIX IT
Buggy code Overpriced should be 23 app Doesnt display most inline images Constant crashes Would be nice if developer got hisher act together and polished this app up Its useful when it works which is sporadically Great concept terrible execution
Its a must have for forum users The best of its kind do far Must NEW VERSION
Very nice program but I would to be support of the Arabic language
I hope to be supportive of the Arabic language in the next version Perfect App
Waste of time and money for me Also dont see most of the photos in the Forum posts I thought Apps on iPad were supposed to be rigorously tested IPad 3 iOS 7 Constant crashing and wont work on some Forums
Worked ok before but now crashes constantly Meh
its really the worst app for browsing forums in AppStore I have ever seen it doesnt support all world language just English plz add support for koreanjapanese and Arabic Languages it just show symbols Plz fix it in next update bad
Not sure about previous versions but this one works perfect Only problem is not all forums display post time Works great
Dont work most of the time Fail
This allows users to go to most Forums Starting new threads and replying are easy It removes all of the ads which made it even better Photos can be uploaded although too many photos make it crash Most sessions crash so often that it is virtually unusable They need to update this app ASAP Good until the update Now its unstable
Youre better off using safari in basically every way This app is an awful waste of moneydarn Takes its sweet time parsing no direct page hit cant just pop to the end buggy integration weak ui Skip itwaste of three bucks Im going to attempt to get a refund this thing shouldnt even be in the app store Absolute garbage
very limited in supported forums Needs more
At first I only gave this app a one star because at the time it was 10 and had a lot of problems But now not only have they lowered the price but they have fixed most of the problems Most forums I am a member of I can import with this app The great thing about this app is it imports the forums into a style that works great on your iphone its not a web app Also you can post from your iphoneitouch This was something that was a problem to begin with but has since been fixed The only thing keeping me from giving it five stars is I feel there are two things that they need to add One the most important is that the keyboard go horizontal Not having this feature makes it a pain to type post and would be much easier if the app could rotate The second and Im not sure if you can do this or how hard it would be is to import the sign in screens to iphone friendly pages Right now you have to go to the website and sign in and thats not always the easiest thing to do It would be great if that was in app also Overall though this app is worth the 4 and is a solid app Updated Review
Cannot connect to phpbb forums you site said I could Did connect to others but app crashes when I try to access it Crashes and doesnt load forums site says it will
Pagination of large threads on SMF doesnt work at all Also the app just crashes on launch now Developer has abandoned this But at your own risk Worked briefly
It doesnt really work well but the interface is solid and has tremendous potential due to the fact that there are no other apps in the store that tackle this function If the author would at least attempt to update it would be nice I hope this doesnt turn vaporous Off to good start
I bought this thinking it would be a smoother way to view forums that dont have mobile website designs and really Ive been nothing but disappointed It crashes frequently has issues with logins and is generally inferior to viewing any of the supported forums through Safari Probably the only application purchase Ive regretted since I got an iPhone over a year ago Quite a Letdown
Just doesnt work Doesnt work
No Arabic support or other language I want my money back No language support waste of money
This is the only app of its kind that I have discovered but it is just not worth the price
I find it easier to just wait until I get to my computer to read my forums
And when it comes to posting on a forum forget it not happening Not Worth The Price
Works on a few forums and so so on others On Macrumors I cant get to the iPhone forums I use that forum the most I hear an upgrade has been released so hopefully some bugs get worked out Seems like a beta to me
The idea for this app is great I was looking forward to using my favorite forumsunfortuneately I paid 10 for a useless app I added forums but cannot do anything because the application will not allow you to log in with your forum accountfix that and it would be worth the money Waste of Money
Added vb forum that I use All it does is display a long list of usernames for the forums If I click thru I get error Too pricey for not even delivering on described functionality Expensive Doesnt work
Im really enjoying this app Its connected to every forum I frequent and its fast Could use just a bit of workpolish and itll make this great app even more awesome Good work guys Youve got a fan Its really good
Up until recently this app worked well with most of my favorite forums However its started to crash a lot suddenly and randomly quits loading forums and has required two reinstalls in as many weeks No substantive update for some time now either Not currently recommended Used to be good
After adding the first board the is constantly crashing on launch UNUSABLE constantly crashing
The description states that nested forums may not display properly this is a misrepresentation The truth is it flat out does not work with sub forums
Until subforums are supported this app is next to useless and certainly not worth the 499 asking price Useless
Cant change pages doesnt load avatars or timestamps no inapp ability to log in read or write pms or use any forum features Some forums dont work in app you cant direct it to start in a subforum some forums show up with blank titles etc If you could read multiple pages it MIGHT be worth a buck but you cant I tried on multiple forums and threads and even though it has an interface for going to a different page in the thread it does NOT work It just reloads the first page Better off using Safari for free Tons of problems
Just downloaded the app and I see that it has potential Forums supported the forum that I post regularly on and I was able to read and reply to every relatively recent thread in the main forums However it did not support any of the sites many subforums a feature that I would like to see added in an update In contrast to some of the other reviewers I was able to access all pages of threads but I would like to see more options for page navigation The Jump to Page feature is tolerable for now but Id like to see buttons that would allow you to go the next page the previous page the first page and most importantly the last post of a thread Also while stickied threads are located at the top of forums they are not distinguished as stickied threads and should be labeled as such so they are not confused with unstickied threads My final wishes in an upgrade would be a New Posts feature in which just threads with unread posts would appear a members list and a search feature Im giving it 3 stars because while it works OK right now it is not yet worth 3 If needed changes are made I will definitely give this app 5 stars If youre actively involved with a couple of forums I would suggest first registering for the support forums and verifying that the forums you visit are supported and then wait for the next upgrade Dont buy just yet Has potential
Awesome way to monitor all my forums without using a web browser Thanks Great
Light version same as the full not many features might as well use safari Lame
Ive had this app for about a week and up until the update last night I was just using it because I paid for it Now its actually usable Its got a way to go before I will consider it excellent but it definitely made a huge leap last night Finally usable
I purchased this and none of the forums 8 that I look at work including the apple forums One of them just has a few of the forums listed and when you click on the Find out more button to find out why they dont work it just opens the actual forum in a webpage format I can use Safari for that
1 Most forums do not work at all or only have 1 or 2 of the stickied forums and none of the posting forums I have yet to get one to work correctly and these are major forums Apple Creditboards Macrumors Xbox etcso if you think this is juxt going to be as easy as picking it up and putting a forum in and it working you are dead wrong Check out the forums all of the users cannot get the thing to work and have to do multiple things to just get a couple of the forums to actually show anything Sad
2 No way to contact Tech Support other than the forum for which the admin only chooses to answer whomever he wishes He still has not acknowledged my concerns
3 This app is nonfunctional at best I would like a refund but I know that is not going to happen because guess what THE DEVELOPER WILL NOT RESPOND
This has the potential to be a great app but the execution of this one is subpar and should be taken off the app store due to false advertising
Bad App Does not work as advertised soDont waste your money DOES NOT WORK DONT BUY
This app is not even close to what is described First off it only works sometimes Half of the time it will in fact convert the forum to an iPhone interface BUT most of the time it will not and the forum will look exactly like it does when viewed thru Safari and load the same Keep in mind I have tried this app on multiple php sites including my own and it does not let you login properly which renders this app useless They also say that have a support forum but here is the kicker they do not respond to many issues that are posted I am so angry that this below par app developer got 299 of my money and I am even more mad Apple allows these apps that do not work to grab your money and run So over all this appEPIC FAIL Worst Forum Reader on here
I like the idea behind this app very much I have been waiting for an app which would allow me to check the forums I follow on a regular basis without having to use Safari and I would be willing to pay 10 for such an app The problem is Forums does not deliver on its promises Out of 3 forums I easily added to the app 1 shows up as not available 1 crashes the app everytime and 1 kind of work vbulletin but with too many bugs to make it useful the most recent threads show as not available though the older threads work fine the list of recent threads looks messy and I still cant figure out how to sign on and post on a forum using this app My advice stay away from this app until some serious improvements are made Needs a lot of work
I used it on my VB boards and its worst than using Safari No back button only a Forum button that takes you out of the site youre viewing Still have to pinch to view I see no point for this app at all Glad some of you like it but it was a waste of money to me Not what I had hoped for
