    App problems

    The last few days, on and off, I've been getting a security message ("permission error") refusing me access to some threads. I can access them after signing out and in again. Also app crashing a LOT. Anything going on?

    DeletedUser : Unfortunately, it is important to have the app - there is a large population that interacts with our forums through the app. It is a loss leader for us but it keeps users engaged with our various forums.

    The new version should be ready in 4-6 weeks - when we're ready to launch sites as well.

    SS: Looking at it. I know we ended up blocking a few IP addresses which are well known for spam (at a global level across hundreds of forum) and this could have caused a problem with some of the app users like yourself and also MovingIn07 and Dreadnought.

    Thanks Shri. Sadly we won't be in HK then
    TB, I find it easier to quote the post I'm replying to on the app. I do agree, the mobile site is fine.

    I use the mobile browser version as well, because I prefer it to the Android App. Not a fan of the Geo app I have to say.

    I had huge problems with my blackberry access yesterday and the day before. (actually not checked since!). I think they were doing something.

    I used to use the app but I fins that the web version is more reliable for me on my phone.

    Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using GeoClicks Mobile

    Might be a tapatalk issue. Found the same bug on my old site. Also find that I have to keep logging in to read the forum, especially when on 3G
