MMO-Champ iPhone app

**Regen** · 2012-02-07, 04:06 PM

I honestly would love to see this. I've had every iPhone since the original and just love them. One of the many great features, as we all know, are the apps. Now, mmo-champ forums can be hard to navigate sometimes and clicking some buttons here and there can be tricky, and I personally think that an app could solve these problems. Just the convenience would be really nice to have in my opinion.

Hell I'd even venture as far as to say I would pay for it if it were $0.99-$2.99

What are your thoughts on this? Would you like to see this? Would you use it? Would you pay?

I'd only use it if it were free, yes I'm a cheapskate.

**Regen** · 2012-02-07, 04:11 PM

Haha obviously that's of preference. But then there would be ads. Maybe then they could do it like a lot of the games are. A free with ads and paid ad free

**peggleftw** · 2012-02-07, 04:14 PM

would prefer it on android

but i would love to see a mmo-c app, tryna browse it on my phones browser is horrible, and orange safegaurd likes the block half the pages :\

Haha yeah because there's a lot to the site and it gets clunky. Like right now typing. I press the buttons for 4-5 words before they show up. Then they end up wrong half the time haha. So an app would make my day

a lot of clever people on here, surprising no one has made one yet to be honest.

Because I'm sure it would have to come from their side. Like curse.com but still it's doable. Hell they could probably hold a contest for it and get it done. Like user submitted apps and use the best and give a prize. No work with profit.

From the S&F FAQ:

Q: Can you make a mobile version of the site?
A: We'd love to get a mobile version of our CSS for easier browsing from mobile devices, but, again, there's no ETA.

I would love to see this as well. I tried searching for an MMO app just the other day and was a bit disappointed that there wasn't one.

Gief!

**Alceus** · 2012-02-07, 09:14 PM

A curse app where you also can view the other sites with ads, or without ads on purchase or with a premium.

**Regen** · 2012-02-07, 10:32 PM

See, plenty of great ideas!

Arlee, sorry :/ not exactly what I meant but I'm sure that could have led me to deduce the app would fall under that

**Arlee** · 2012-02-07, 11:40 PM

Yea it's all sort of under the same category. Something that seems like a good idea but how to do it/getting it done time frame is sort of still in the air.

**llDemonll** · 2012-02-07, 11:41 PM

What Arlee was trying to say is that there aren't current plans to make a specific smart-phone application, but rather a mobile layout. With a mobile layout instead of an app people don't have to worry about updating the app and the lovely staff doesn't have to worry about keeping each application up-to-date

edit: he beat me to the response..

**Scarlot** · 2012-02-07, 11:42 PM

An app for a forum? Nah, it's better and probably easier for them to just make a mobile-site, + that works with all phones.

In case people would like to read past threads/responses on the subject (and there have been TONS):

Just because your fancy and can actually do a real quote from it Elysia, QQ

**Regen** · 2012-02-09, 04:23 PM

I'm sorry to have started a mod war

But alas, I was unable to read the FAQ or search! For I was on my iPhone and it's too inconvenient for the time being. I was just a lone college student, sans laptop, hoping to spark a response for an easier in class distraction. I mean macroeconomics, who needs it?

**Baelrah82** · 2012-02-15, 05:56 PM

I'm kind of confused now. I've had an iPhone app for MMO-champion for like a year now. It had 3 pages: 1 for recent forum posts, 1 for the main page announcements and 1 for blue forum posts. I check it every single day and it's an awesome app (apart from some scaling issues on blue posts). Yesterday I updated my 3GS to 5.0.1 and now the app doesn't load anymore, it just crashes when I try to launch it. So I went into the appstore to find an update, but I couldn't find it. I then went into Installous (yes it's jailbroken) because I wasn't sure anywamore where I got this particular app before, but also there I couldn't find it.

So, if the mods from mmo-champion are saying there never was an iPhone app, I'm not really sure what I've been using the past year, but I sure would love to have it back!
If you want I can post a screenshot of how it looks, because before it crashes, I still see the app.

**llDemonll** · 2012-02-15, 07:38 PM

There was an app, and if you paid for it then I'm sorry, but there was never an official MMO-Champion iPhone app. Anything you downloaded was made/maintained by some 3rd-party person who used the MMO-Champion alias to gain attention for his app

I recall seeing this about a year and a half ago when I first got my iPhone but never downloaded it because I believe it cost money
