    is there any handy way of flicking through pages on boards mobile and other discussion forums
    i find it too tricky to hit the right number on the touchscreen when i'm going from page1 to page2 etc.??

    thanks

    Install Chrome as your browser, then when you are clicking the number if it doesn't know which one you tried to hit it will embiggen the area so you can choose which number you want.

    What's your screen size?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,431 ✭✭✭M cebee


    4"
    the page numbers on boards mobile and other sites are too small

    i've changed the zoom settings on opera which seems to be the best browser and i tap to zoom

    pinch to zoom is too much work?

    is there a separate mobile version compared to the touch version? i find it quite easy on the touch, no zooming.

    The boards android app is unofficial and, in my opinion, has a lot of issues with it

    I generally access it via Chrome, as recommended by an earlier poster

    I use Opera mini which I find good to view Boards. The strange thing is the m.boards version stopped working for some threads (i.e. vodafone) but others, like the Android are fine.

    I tried Opera mobile but couldn't use it at all for Boards as the view was way too small no matter what I did. I have a 4" Huawei Ascend.

    +1 for Opera mini. Plus I'm using a 5.5" screen. It's true, the bigger the better :D
