I know it's been way too long, but we are in the final stages of putting out a new mobile app for Android OS.
Let me address the elephant in the room first. Yes, there is a single ad unit in the app. It is a floating banner on the bottom of the screen.
The original app was developed in August of 2010. It was released for $1.99. The hope was that sales could support continued development. They did for a bit, but it was short-lived. The app did not generate enough income overtime to support development. 18 months ago, we removed the cost and made the app free.
At a significant cost to us, we decided to rebuild the app from scratch with modern framework. In seven years, the way apps are made has changed significantly basically requiring a complete rebuild. Our hope is that the single ad will generate some revenue to recover that cost and support continued development, but not interfere with the useability of the app for our users.
We are now in beta and that beta is open to anyone, just be clicking the URL below:
We are hoping that you will help us test the app before we release a production build to the Google Play Store. Most of the functionality is in place, with one big exception. Uploading images/video from your camera roll and attaching to a post/reply is still in development, but will be part of the final release.
If you find any bugs/issues, I would appreciate if you just list them here on the thread.
Looks good so far, only issues I see is need more spacing for thread titles, op name is cut in half and when replying text area is hidden behind keyboard and ad.
in the next beta release and obvioulsy in the full release. We are hoping to beta through end of year and release shorlty after the beginning of the year.

Is there any way to go back to regular app once I update to the beta? Probably should've asked before updating lol

Only reason I would want to is for the sub forums
Yeah I'm ok with the old app (I'm so used to it's shitty functioning its grown on me like a wart)
If the beta is homo can I go back to my old paid version
Just an observation while going through the pics never not funny thread...
Can't zoom in on the pic from the app, and can't hold down to save the image. Could be my phone as I was unable to save on the old app as well (although zoom works)
What does happen is of you click on the pic or takes you to where the pic is hosted so I can still save and zoom there. Not sure that's a feature everyone will like because I can see it taking you to some questionable sites by accident
