Hello all,

Avid iPhone user/lover/supporter here, any others?
I have a question, any thoughts on making an FWR app? Does it already exist?
If not, does anyone on here have a favorite app to use that works well with this forum? I downloaded a 'forum viewing' app a long time ago, but it wasn't that great.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks,

Rob

Yes there is an Iphone app.
A browser.

Ya I hear ya. Safari works good and I'm happy with web viewing on this phone, but text boxes (like the one I'm using to reply to this post), act kind of funny making it difficult sometimes.

OMG...not more Jobs fanboyz....

[iRobertO]

Oh boy.. Here we go..
To avoid any unnecessary arguments, in my original post, please change iPhone to mobile device and change 'app' to thingy ma-jingy when reading..
PS: the video I took in HD landing 2 fish today worked well on my 'mobile device'

No apps for FWR yet. All mobile devices should be turned off when you go fishing.

I use tapatalk on my iPhone for browsing other sites and love it. So much easier to navigate and post from a mobile device. It is now available for blackberry, android and I think nokia. Would be great if rod were to enable this feature on the forum

I'd be much more interested in acquiring some kind of mobile jamming device! There are few things I find more irritating than some so-called fisherman 15 yards away on a formerly peaceful beach or stretch of river yakking away at the top of his lungs into a cell.

im amazed that some people actually take the time to browse the internet and post on forums with there iphones.....it will be there when you get home to your computer...go fishing.

I'm amazed at how quickly a thread can get hijacked.
I don't want the 'app' for the river. I want it because I use my iPhone more than my computer. I'm not lazy, technology evolved, that's all.

As much as I hate the iPhone I want one now.....lmao

The iPhone and any of their products are where it's at in my books. People yacking on the phone while fishing is no worse than people on a phone while out dining, unless of course they're calling every person they know telling them that the guy across the river from them just hooked their third steelhead from say lickman road, that is a total pi** off. A lot of people out fishing have responsibilities that they can not escape such as kids and families. I have gone through tonnes of phones as well from the top of the line nokia phones back in the day to blackberries and now the iPhone, and I can say that the iPhone is the best by far I have had. There's no real need for a fwr app as fwr is pretty simple to browse quickly for anything new and the fact that you can set up notifications for emails of anything new in a thread that you've replied to or a thread that you're watching.

I'd love to see Rod add Tapatalk support. It's free and works on nearly the Smartphones out there.

I have a couple ideas for some fishing apps.

1. A GoFishBC stocking update app.
2. A Salmon Identification app.

Just my ideas...or 2 cents worth.

p.s. You don't have to worry about me chatting on my iPhone on the Chilliwack river. I usually fish above Tamahi and lose my signal way before I reach it.

Just wondering if there ever was anything come of this?  Just got an iPhone a few weeks ago, and started using Tapatalk on other sites - is there anything similar for FWR (or does FWR work or can it or are there plans to use with Tapatalk??).
