In addition to the iPhone app, the forum software that we use now has an Android app.

Does this Android app appeal to anyone?

I seem to get kind of a cold reception when I talk about upgrading...

... but at some point we will be missing out on features that are being added.

You're being a tease Tom, how would I know what the app does if you don't tell me? Perhaps you could upgrade ETF talk first...

Well, I'd rather sacrifice ETFTalk vs TSPTalk. If it doesn't work, then Tom can take his sweet time fixing whatever is broke. Come to think of it, why not upgrade Beltwaytalk first :toung:

Beltway has been using the new software from the start. I guess I could upgrade ETF Talk too.

I can't find the app in the market place. Does it exist now?

I have to claim ignorance on it now, but my vague understanding is that I have to buy the mobile suite, which I would use to build the app for TSP Talk, and then it can be available for download.

I think it can also be used on this current version of the forum software, so I will look into that, but at some point these new features will only be written for the new 4.0 and newer versions. (TSP Talk currently uses 3.8.7)
