Re: How Could We Improve Scioly.org?
Is there a scioly.org app? If not, can there be one made? I feel like it's too much of a hassle to use safari or chrome on phones, etc.

Re: How Could We Improve Scioly.org?
I believe the problem is the format of the page when on the phone is odd on safari/chrome. It can be confusing

Re: How Could We Improve Scioly.org?
Sometimes the formatting is weird and some parts are cut off. Also, it might be more accessible via app than via browser, search, etc.PM2017 wrote:Exactly what part of using Safari and Chrome is the hassle?dxu46 wrote:Is there a scioly.org app?

The scioly.org mobile site is amazingly good for me; based on my experience, I feel like an app wouldn't be better. I use Chrome on a Pixel 2 XL.

Eh, the site worked really well on my previous phone, a Samsung Galaxy S3 (literally over 5 years old at that point).Raleway wrote:R I C H : (Adi1008 wrote: The scioly.org mobile site is amazingly good for me; based on my experience, I feel like an app wouldn't be better.

Re: How Could We Improve Scioly.org?
I think it may be more to do with screen size and how the phone formats it due to that?
