When will the hamb app start working again?

I haven't been able to see anything lately.

 

It's gone for good.

 

The app was my only way in for quite a few years.
I can't spend my whole afternoon tunneling under the fence just to peek and see if anything new happened.
There just isn't enough bored-out-of-your-gourd time to make it worth blowing a whole afternoon doing what used to take just a few mins.

Oh well....
..... so much for that...
it was fun while it lasted...

 

I don't get it. It takes me seconds to check the hamb and I don't use the app.... And the app sucked, it's way easier to log in with your browser.

 

Your making a mountain out of a mole hill, just log in with your browser, it's actually very easy. HRP

 

............What!?......

 

This would be hilarious if it just wasn’t such a damn good example of where society seems to be headed.

 

Lots of my posts are made from my phone. I have never used the app. Why is it a dealbreaker? Any smartphone that supports the app also has a variety of internet browsers that handle the forum just fine.

 

I placed an icon on my home screen. Click it and I see all HAMB threads that have new posts since my last visit.
I never logout. Just close the browser window when I'm done.

 

I’m still using the app. Only issue is to reply I have to hit the “+” to open its own window then type away.

 

Bummer it has to be this way, bring tech savvy this just makes me have to go out of my way, it’s worth it, just a bummer. so do I just delete the app now?

 

Oh cool app still works!

 

Ope pictures won’t post….

 

So you're saying the app is gone? just kidding

 

I don’t know if the app is gone or not, I don’t have a clue.
All I know is that due to the changes I can’t use or figure out how to use this site any longer and I am disappointed about that.

I only have an I Pad to use and I am most certainly NOT a computer guru.

I am confident that there are talented computer users on this site that could write a clear description about the site and how it is supposed to work. If that is done I should be able to successfully make the best use of the site. I will be
very grateful if that is done.

Thanks, Dave V.

 

So do you look at other things on the internet on you pad? I don't own an iPad, but everybody around me does, and they're always on the internet. Go to Google and type in jalopy journal. Or the hamb. Go there and log in

 

@Wheeliedave , using your browser, Safari or ?
On the red bar at the top of this page, where it says jalopyjournal.com,
Click or tap on the three horizontal bars to the right.
Then click or tap on HAMB.
That will take you to the forums.
This stuff is not that hard. Just keep navigating until you get where you want to be.
Hope this helps.

 

Dave, how did you post the above reply? You had to log on to do that right? Everything else is explained in the rules and tutorial sections.
When you open the questions and suggestions section, the tutorial section is at the top under the heading. Lots of good info there.

 

My.phone defaults to app, have to use desktop

 

Uninstall the app and it won't be able to do that.

 

General !Phone question: I'm two months away from turning 71, can never afford an !Phone, can't stand the obscenities' involved with someone trying to show photos on one. How come I've NEVER SEEN anyone with an owners manual?

 

Usually phone manufacturers post a manual on the web for every phone model.

 

Been a member of the H.A.M.B. for a long time and I have never used the app on my phone. (I hate "apps"!) The times I've logged in from my phone, I do what @Moriarity says and it works just fine. Spend a little time doing it this way and you won't miss the app at all:

And if you read the post by @corncobcoupe you'll appreciate why the "app" was ditched.

 

I guess he wasn't willing to try anything different, he hasn't been back since his last posting. HRP

 

Too bad, doesn't know what he's missing.
