It would make things a lot easyer and would make more user go to the forum if they made an ap for the forums. Like the facebook or other aps.

It could give all our mail and activity streams alarts and such on it two making an easy to use one stop spot for andriod and iphone users. Pulse you could make it so you can change your armatar and look at your Rep and AP, or any thing else.

Although it would take a lot of work to make, and it would have to be in a non flash format/platform (like java).

I was thinking about this just last night, and I really want it.
I would maybe even buy it for .99 cents if it's nice.
It could use flash if it was on the Droid. :3
But yeah, please consider making this, guys. C:

You mean objective-C .

Either way anyone who has access to the forums on a smart phone can just go on the forums via internet browser. Making an app will just make it easier for a very small amount of users and probably wont benefit AG at all.

guys, we're all nerds. everyone thinks that. it'll be even better if we have forums on the go?
"Did ya get a text?"
"Nope! Got my RPG reply!"
Forums don't have to be with someone 24/7. its just a thing we have, an app? no

Not really, none of my friends know me as the kid who goes on the computer.
Anyways, I think it would be something cool to add :3

We're already planning a better mobile version of the site where you can browse activity streams, leave comments, send messages, etc.. If you have a Flash-enabled phone, we could probably give you access to play the mobile games.

This will be a post-launch feature, though, if I recall, so it's a little ways off.

Oh, and it'll be web-based, so it won't be a separate app to download for any given platform.

We've already said: it won't be a separate downloadable app. You'll get to some parts of the site via your mobile web browser.

To start, we'll let you have access to your private Inbox, and expand out from there.

Yeah, A sperate App isn't really needed I have an LG rumor touch and even though it isn't a smart phone I can surf through the forums quick enough. Imagine with a smartphone, this would just be a waste of resources and time to make an Armorgames.com app

Yeah; not just the forums. I would like whole AG! I often use it now for comments and so.

I've been thinking about this for months! Sure, I use the forums on my iPod already, but it's rather difficult to maneuver. This would be absolutely perfect! Glad to know that a good portion of the site will have mobile capabilities. My thanks to the AG dev team.

Well, like I said, to *start*, we'll let you access your private Inbox. Other areas will be added down the road.
