The new network and an app

Question

Hi allAre we going to get an app for using the new group? Using it on a phone browser is pretty horrendous. Something like the Yammer app would be greatThanksGideon Kay

I thought that Microsoft was mobile-first, cloud-first. Moving this comminity back to a browser experience is putting that in reverse.

I'm sorry but having used the new forums through a browser on my phone since the launch I'm finding them unusable. I've been an active Yammer user, again on my phone where I tend to do the vast majority of research out of work hours (who wants a laptop on their lap in the evening) and maybe it's the layout but you can't even read the full subject lines on the various topics. Come on Microsoft, please either give us an app, optimise the site for mobile or switch back to Yammer please

Thanks

Gideon

The message for now is that there is not a mobile App for the new network. The team is thinking about the best approach so the new network can work great also in mobile devices

"please either give us an app (looking into this), optimise the site for mobile (absolutely working on this) or switch back to Yammer please (not an option for the community)
