    For some reason when you go to the board on the iPhone the text of the board shows up white, and so does the background color, so you can't read anything. I'm not an expert or anything but it appears that they tried to install a mobile forum plug in for the board, that didn't work so well. Either that or they broke it so that iPhone users would have to buy the app if they wanted to use the forums.

    Unless you use a different browser that allows you to set the display to 'desktop' instead of 'Iphone' - then you can access the whole site as you would from your computer. I still use the app to read and post in the forums though, it's more 'reader friendly'.

    I did use Skyfire a couple times over the last few weeks to post from, but I just don't like that browser. The PJ app is still far from perfect, but it is still easier to navigate through than a browser I think. Like there really needs to be a "Return to The Porch" button. After reading through multiple pages of a thread then having to hit Back a bunch of times is kind of annoying.

    Right. And quoting from the app is a hassle too. Especially if you don't want to quote the whole thing or you're quoting a long post. Being able to use the app in 'landscape' mode would probably help that though.

    I've said this in other threads on here before, but I really wish they would just add the Tapatalk plugin to this board. I use that app for my forum and a couple other forums and it works really well. It would literally take them 5 minutes tops to install it and that's it. Browsing is super easy and smooth and it supports PMs.
