Porcelain Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Sounds like a good idea. I have a whole bunch of other apps that are smaller forms of websites and even sections of websites. I have none of the smarts to even know where to start to make an app. Nor do i want to go and learn. Anyone know the difficulties or time it takes to do so? P.S. I guess if it can be done for iPhone too why not? Thoughts? Comments? Boogie Hands Droid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishCarBombs Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 This was discussed recently and I believe raven said something along the lines of... "Apple is very picky in what they allow to be apps, so the vision he had for one might be declined. As for 12oz itself we are rolling out a hugeeeee facelift soon (very soon by now). Then after all that is said and done we might work on an app." The new 12oz is going to be dope, some of us have tried pieces of it out already.

LEVEL 75 PALADIN Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I never really understood the point of an application for a website. What's wrong with the web browser? For an iphone a can maybe see using one for a flash-heavy site. But for android? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eviltrailer77 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 android inst too fond of flash either, just saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcay Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Currently viewing on a Droid phone, as I do everyday.. apps make niggas lazy, got it bookmarked, what do I need an app for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decyferon Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 withthe amount of work going into the new facelift to the site there wouldnt be time to work on apps, although I think Raven mentioned that IF in the future the new site could be ported or would be able to work as an app, if they chose to dvelop it. I don't see the reason for website apps though, as dcay said just book mark that stuff, never had any flash problems on my HTC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercer Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Things an app can provide that a browser cant: push notifications upload / post photo upload / post video upload / post audio faster page loads direct 1 click access Also, I think they're working to make the entire site easier for devices like iphones and most of the imitation iphones.

KM4RT Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 The most that should be done is optimising the website for mobile browsers. Developing an app seems pointless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercer Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 So being able to upload a photo directly is pointless then? Have you tried posting a photo on here using a smartphone, it's a gigantic pain in the ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
