Which browser cthulu?
The mobile site is too restrictive. No my posts and no kudos
Chrome and android browsers work but are hardly friendly.

I use Dolphin browser on my 3.2" android and it's perfectly usable... although, sometimes, I prefer the mobile version, because it hides all the useless signatures, making the threads more readable.
tapatalk, tried it once on another forum, found it to go against my way of browsing a forum, where I resort to forum subscriptions and keep to those, ignoring a large part of the whole forum.
Which brings me to a particular pain in the mobile version: the subscriptions page is missing a few icons. The icons which signal that the sub-forum has any new posts or not. I once mentioned it in one thread around here... ah, here it is: https://atheistforums.org/thread-15408.html.

Massage from Jeffrey at Tapatalk:
"Can you give me the detail info about these SQL errors ?"
Edit
Chrome beta on android 4.2.2
Text sizes are all over the place. Replying makes the text box off screen. almost impossible to use
Damn and I can't attach pictures. This sucks
I like Dolphin but it's a memory hog. Does it wrap text correctly for you?
Tapatalk works with subscriptions... You can list only those, as I do.
The participated threads link doesn't work on mybb either though. You have to check in all unread to find threads you've participated in.

I use the standard browser and the Lastpass browser (which I think is just a skin for the standard one) on both. Have to zoom to make text readable, but it works well enough.

As for being a memory hog, you may be right, but I only keep it running while I'm using it. For me, the problem is more one of battery drain.

meh, still, one more app to do something I can do with the browser. It's just the mobile version that's messed up. The full version works well enough for me.

Could we compile a list of things the mobile version is missing but you would like to have? It shouldn't be too hard to implement them, since the mobile version is just a MyBB theme, and I can just copy code over from the regular theme.

The reply box is pretty unusable using the mobile version. to edit your quote above my view is hemouraging all over the shop. The reply box is auto resizing so can never see the whole width. my cursor misreports it's position on screen, so positioning it is pure guesswork.

To me, it's just those icons. Everything else works well enough...
I've seen people complaining about missing kudos, though.
fr0d0, I never had the trouble you have with the reply box... maybe it's your device's fault?

I've created a new discussion thread for this: http://atheistforums.org/thread-17268.html
Kindly report all issues there (and screenshots would be appreciated). I'll make this a priority.
