Modern web UI is nice, but at the end of the day when it comes to mobile, apps are still king.

 

If the purpose of this is to replace the interaction we had on Yammer, a mobile app is a necessity.  Ease of use is critical, and navigating via browser does not give the features and interactivity that the Yammer app does. App specific notifications for replies, quickly navigating to favorite topics/groups.  Just because it can be used in a mobile browser doesnt mean it should.

 

I see lack of a mobile app as a real barrier to winning user adoption and getting the most participation possible based on the proven success of Yammer Office 365 Network.

You may install Microsoft Edge and then visit the Microsoft Tech Community website and pin it as an application which will work like an application.

@Reza_Ameri I meant an application for the above mentioned idea.

 

Not like visiting somewhere and doing the stuff!

When you pin a website, it will act like an application and it shows the logo and when you click on it, it act like opening an application.

Developing an application would required more resources and new developer and testing team while make website adjust for a phone and pin it like an app would perform the same task without need to assign so much resources.
