OGF Phone App?

OGF is currently accessible as a web page. Not sure what an app would do that a web page doesn't currently accomplish. Plus the additional expense of developing an app might outweigh any perceived benefits.

The thought of an App Is amazing however..
Weighing the pros and cons of such an idea.
Pros: allow fast and easy access.
Up to the second notifications
Administrative access to be able to control content user access and acceptance the the forum.
Upload images right from the device, or allow access to take and post photos and video instantly.
Access to maps for events , layouts , shops ect.
Easily search the forum for specific posts , users , or items.
And the Ultimate Pro bringing it to a younger more modern generation to carry on the art and passion we all share of model rail roading!
Cons: Biggest is Cost the user would end up footing the bill.
APP development upkeep and distribution (ie. Google play or Apple store)
Over all it is a large undertaking however if anyone was to move ahead the cost could be solved with a monthly subscription fee and a cost to download the app (not really a bad thing keeps out the trolls)
Personally I wouldn't mind paying for an app related to such.
I actually love a good ol' fashion forum (it's a dying thing in itself) but it would be nice to be able to upload photos or vids without having to send them to my PC/Laptop first 😆. Anyway that's my input and im sure i missed something in both pros and cons 😀
Anyways > (insert catchy slogan here) and take care!

In most cases, apps are the same as their web counterparts, sometimes with fewer features. In fact, apps generally *ARE* simply just web pages that are launched from an icon on a device, really no different from going to the browser to do the same. This forum website actually has both a mobile version and desktop version. When you access it from a mobile devices, it will default to the mobile version. A mobile app would be no different in functionality from the mobile version of the web page.

You can actually also set up your profile to send you an email notification for a variety of events. From a desktop computer, just go to Profile --> Edit Profile (button on the right) --> Notifications. By default, notifications for all actions are set to Never. Careful, as enabling these the wrong way may result in more notifications than you may want. With a busy forum like this, up-to-the-minute notifications might drive you crazy. I personally hate notifications in most cases.

Me too, I don't use apps...that I know of.
