P4um - DebatingChristianity.com site viewer for Android

Post #1

Post by otseng »

For all you Android users out there, I've created a free app to allow you to read the forum. Right now it's in beta mode, but it should be fairly functional. When time allows, I'm planning on adding the ability to post and access PMs.

You can get it at P4um.

If you install it, post here and let me know what you think.

They don't have a published version to support phpbb2 (we're too archaic here). But, I'll see if I can hack the phpbb3 plugin to support our forum.

Are there any Objective C programmers here? I can help you write an iPhone app to access this site.

I looked at it and it's way too difficult to do. Sorry.

But, if anyone happens across a free phpbb2 plugin for tapatalk, I'd be happy to install it.

Recently hadda spend time away from my desktop computater, so I used the reader to keep up. Love it!

My only problem is that when it comes to typing on my little phone, my thumbs are bigger'n the all outdoors :)

Very good work, sir.
