Neowin Mobile updated

In that case, yes it should work :)

should is the key word my friend... still doesn't...

"URL Error: API not found. URL may not refer to an IP.Board install, or may be an incompatible version."

I figured it wouldn't work. I was really hoping it would though. I remember another member having an issue with the mobile app. It may be a bug that needs to be fixed by IPB.

Recent mobile forum update didn't enable an ability to jump to a specific page as was expected. However, I am glad that the main page is getting some love.

One question though: does information that isn't actionable (at least on iPhone) need to be displayed for every story? Things like tags, bubble with count of comments, even story author cannot be actioned unless drilled into each story.

Also, notice a small glitch with drawing of the Facebook like count bubble as per screenshot below. Probably Facebook's fault like just about anything these days.

Wonderful job, much better looking than the previous version but since the previous version a while ago. I just have one question; I'm using an Xperia Arc (which runs on Android) and when I use the default browser, everything is great. But when I use opera mobile, it forces me to click the "View Image" link to see the pictures. Is this intentional? It's been like this since 2 versions back and I was just hoping it was a bug.

Will try it,, always preferred the mobile site on the iPad ( more touch friendly ) but missing functionality of full site ( expected )

Edit - nice, same as the last mobile site before update,, looks little different, and the editing of posts/navigation is better

If you're referring to Mini (not Mobile) then it would make sense if it was intentional. Saves on data use. On Mobile, probably not.

Nice to see the site rendering just fine on Mini by the way :)

You're right that it would make sense on the Mini, but I am referring to the Mobile version.

It works on my forum though, it might be that the settings on Neowin disallow the API. (you can actually disable the iOS app from connecting to a forum, I'll have to test it when I get home. )

Looks very nice! At this point I've been using the desktop version on my Xoom since the Pegasus update (since the default mobile was attrocious) and haven't found a reason to go back to the mobile site, but when I'm stuck using my phone, it will be an absolute pleasure to be using the mobile site again. Very, very good work! Can't wait for the forums to be updated as well. I will miss mobile darkside, but I can easily get over that since, as I mentioned, I don't get on the mobile site very often.

    • Everything I have read is that the BBC is still Pro Doctor Who but wants a solid plan before they let anyone else try to do it. Which is fair.
    • I totally agree no one should trust governments AND big tech companies that have near monopolies in certain market segments. The difference is of course citizens at least have some say in government. Yes, requiring Apple to open up Sirsi to other AI backends is in the interest of EU customers and certainly "opens" up the platform a crack. What are you saying? I wish the US would regulate tech companies more here and even break them up in some cases. Granted trusting the government to do it right is a crap shot at best but what is the alternative? To allow a few tech companies to continue to run everything and just print money? It's crazy to me for example that in most of the world 99% of communications go thru Facebook servers via WhatsApp. What kind of dystopian world are we living in?
    • You can.. make sure you have ADB tools on whatever OS you are running, plug your phone into your PC give it approval to talk to the phone then run this command. adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.chrome So long as you leave Android Webview untouched it wont break anything on your Phone to do this. I have been using exclusively Firefox mobile since it was released.
    • If it ain't broke, don't fix it. One Commander Free also available in the Store has been my goto Files Manager for years. It does what I need at a more than reasonable speed. I do occasionally use Files Explorer just because it is there and does what I need without any problems when I use it.
    • I think you missed his point. He wasn't saying that cloud storage isn't possible on GNU/Linux, clearly it is. He was pointing out that you are commenting about your dislike of Windows on an article about OneDrive (not Windows) for Mac (also not Windows). Its about as off topic as coming to an article about Sony improving something on the PlayStation and saying that you hate Sony TVs and prefer LG.
