  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

iPhone app for viewing BOTL

Every time I bring up BOTL on my iPhone it asks me if I'd like to buy an app that will make it easier to view and post. If I remember correctly the app is around $3 but the reviews of it are very mixed. Does anyone have any experience with this and would you recommend it?

I just put a bookmark to the site on my (desktop? dashboard? don't know what to call it on the iphone) I never see anything about an app and it works fine for me. Punch the bookmark and it opens safari and brings me here.

I use it because a few other forums I a member of have it installed too. Would I use it only for BOTL no, I would just view it in the browser. It is a much simpler way to view message boards.

I didn't search. I just remembered it being posted before and where it was.

The original thread

I would have to agree. I got the app and right now BOTL is the only forum that I view on it. I find that I am using the bookmark more than I use the app. FWIW.

There are several style for VB that would allow it to be easily viewable on an iphone. I have one installed on my forum and it works great less hassle for me and my members don't have to pay anything.
