How do I get the full forum on the iPhone? Tapping 'Full Version' doesn't work and clearing cookies and other data doesn't work either.

Only the full front page works when going to neowin.net/full.

Have you tried FMH's suggestion (see here)?

Clicking "Full Version" doesn't work for me either (iPhone 3GS & iPhone 4)

Sort of on topic... How do you get back to the front page after going to the forums?

There is a link to the forums in the drop down box, while on the mobile front page, but no such link to get back. Nor is there a link to NeoGamr

I'm reviving this because I have this problem too and I can't fix it no matter what I do.

I'm using an iPhone 4S and if I use Safari or Chrome I cannot get to the desktop version of Neowin it just takes me back to mobile. I've cleared cookies, cache everything I can think of.. all I can think is this is a Neowin side problem?

Used to work fine, now.. not so much. I know sites like to have mobile versions (for some reason) but Neowins mobile version sucks. No notifications or anything just basic forum reading and replying, please fix this.

i can confirm this, it gets stuck on mobile skin BECAUSE "go to desktop" link takes you to front news page (which gets turned back to the desktop version) but then the forum is still stuck on the mobile skin

I'm still having this problem for as long as I can remember since I got my iPhone 4.

Mobile version is okay-ish, but lacks a few features I use frequently, so it's a pain in the behind.

    • I like to reminisce about the good old days, way back in autumn 2025 when building a gaming machine was fun and the drives were about $150 when you caught a deal. Yes duh, back in the day we had it gone. Then baby Skynet came along, hiding in AI datacenters demanding more processing power until it reached singularity. End of a not totally fictional story.
    • My experience in the past with older Windows 11 builds was not great on unsupported machines but I recently used Rufus to put the latest build on a older 5th Gen Core Thinkpad T that we upgraded with a SATA SSD and 8GB of RAM four years ago when hardware was reasonable and it seemed pretty fast and solid. Customer is very happy with the performance and will probably get four more years out of that venerable laptop that he loves so much. Another customer just retired his Dell Studio laptop from 2009 running Windows 10. It got an SSD over 10 years ago and did everything he needed it to for 17 years but he also retired last year and is happy doing everything on his iPad now.
    • Apple's newest AirTag 2 gets first big discount by Taras Buria In late January 2026, Apple introduced its second-generation AirTag trackers, bringing a refresh to the old model that has been on the market for half a decade. Now, you can get these new trackers at an all-time low price, thanks to the first big discount that brought the price down by 17% on Amazon. While the second-generation AirTag looks identical to its predecessor, it packs meaningful upgrades inside. The second-gen ultrawideband chip works 50% farther than the original AirTag, allowing you to detect lost items in a wider range. In addition, the second-generation AirTag features an upgraded Bluetooth chip for extended range and a significantly louder speaker (up to 50%) so that you can hear it better when locating a lost item. Note that the second-gen AirTag only works with iPhones and iPads that run iOS/iPadOS 26 and newer, so you need a compatible device to use the tracker. Like the original AirTag, the AirTag 2 is available in two packs: one and four pieces. Both are now available at a notable discount on Amazon, and you can purchase them using the links below. Apple AirTag 2 tracker - $24 | 17% off on Amazon Apple AirTag 2 tracker (four-pack) - $89 | 10% off on Amazon Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S.- specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."
    • “Could” … in the IS the healthcare is run by insurance companies that make indecent profits denying basic treatments to people that are paying money for nothing. Besides, where are all the Trump epigones who were stating that the tariffs were going to paid by foreign companies and not the US citizens? …
