That would be awesome. On iPhone the site looks pretty spiffy but there is some broken functionality. Especially with regards to uploading images. Doing some mobile QA and bug fixes would be a great step.

I find mobile versions of the sites annoying. Pinside works very well in safari. If you want to be able to upload images there as well, jailbreak and install the safari uploaded tweak.

The iframes are all messed up too. Nearly impossible to add or update a location on the go. I think the map should be a major part of the functionality if there was ever an app.

Chrome for ios seems to work a little better the safari. I remembers the unread count correctly after returning the the post list after reading a post. And the iframe handling seems better.

OP
Quoted from ChadH:
I thought I read somewhere that there was a Pinside iPhone/iPad app in the works?

Dream?

No, no dream. We are seriously looking into it. However, as it will take a lot of time to create such an app, we're not sure yet if we can fit it into our schedule and if it will be worth investing all this time in. And if we're going to do an app, we want it to add some unique features to the table and not just be a translation of the current site. So we're looking into ways to make use of the unique features of smart phones with regards to Pinside and pinball in general. To be continued (I hope).

I have been using my phone only for Pinside for the last few days traveling. The map is the only thing that has given me trouble. I was wanting to see who I was traveling near.

I can't get the map to work at all on my iPhone. This would be nice while out searching while traveling. Any solutions?
