Mobile forum

I am currently trying to use the vBulletin mobile version of the forum.. and, well... It isn't exactly very user friendly.

Is there any alternative or possibility for an alternative ?

I would be happy to look into developing it if you want, I am currently doing this sort of stuff at university so it would be good practice

Edit: unfortunately the official vBulltin app is quite costly... But I have found some free alternatives,

I'll look into it some more when I get home.

You can always scroll to the bottom, and select the "Full Site" option. I prefer the full site over the mobile version. 2014-10-17 14:00:00

Full site is certainly better, but it is still difficult to navigate on a phone. :S2014-10-17 14:04:00

Well... I use my phone most of the time and know the challenges. I don't use the vBulletin mobile app at all as it is horrible. At least for on our version.

Appreciate the offer, but this site is too huge to dump vBulletin, especially since we paid for it and has so many features. At this time I would rather look at upgrading to v5 if we did anything.

It's outstandingly better to use it from a computer or the full site on your phone. On vBulletin, you never see the theme of LBPC, and don't get the option to make your text look colorful.

I have exclusively used my phone for browsing this forum and the full site option. It works well in my experience.2014-10-17 19:34:00
