An App? - AsylumParty - 06-27-2017
I was wondering if there is anybody capable of creating an easy-access application for the league?
Now, I know next to nothing about the process so excuse my ignorance, but I'm assuming it's not terribly difficult, and of course it would only be a quality of life improvement for mobile users, so maybe it isn't worth creating yet if its a lengthy process, but I think it's something to at least consider for the future.

I have no idea how it'd work but if anything with mobile phone application knowledge is here, PM me we can work something out with compensation.

Am I the only guy who likes the mobile site?

I think the mobile site works great. You can even switch to desktop at the bottom of every page. It's great

It's doable, but there's not really much point making apps for forums IMO. Admittedly the mobile version of the forum isn't ideal, but it works well enough. At the moment, an app would just basically be re-skinning the mobile version of the forum.
Maybe if more aspects of the league moved to a quasi-web app status (things like player updates, contracts, predictions... stuff that could be easily checked and automated by code rather than people) then the idea of an app would make more sense, because you'd already have the infrastructure (which isn't best suited to a forum) and you'd want a new interface.

I agree. If there were a way to turn the forum into more of a web app that would automate a lot of things for us it would be better. This would also make the mobile page easier to use. The hardest part I've found about using mobile is updating your player with post links and what not. It's not necessarily the most difficult it just takes much longer than on desktop.
