While there is a mobile version for the forum, it's not very good. And the options for a better mobile version just isn't there without updating the forum platform (which I plan to do).
I'm curious to know how many people use the forum on their mobile device and how it's working out for you.
Personally I switch to the default template while on my phone and I'm able to post on the forum/chat without any issues. However the mobile version of the forum is pretty much worthless.
Are you on your phone now?

I use my phone a lot and always select the Default Template, which is strictly done when on my iPhone only. When I use my iPad the regular template is automatically shown so I don't have to change it.
The mobile/default way is fine for me. I am not a fan of most mobile website looks anyway, so for my part it isn't a big deal.

I would suspect most people are on their phones when accessing the forum.. at least that's what analytics is telling me.

99% on my desktop - sometimes on the phone if travelling but the tiny screen and typing = annoying. I haven't tried that aspkin forum app

I access from both desktop and phone. When on mobile I request the desktop view as I'm not too keen on the mobile version.

Desktop view on the rare occasion I do.
However I used to use tapatalk but found it problematic. Not sure if its down to the app itself, or compatibility with the forum/version its running.

Had to attend a MVA last night
Tradie driving home and he took an incoming phone call 30 seconds before a bend in the road.
Perfect driving conditions yet he totalled his set ofwheels. |

I use both. Desktop at home and phone on the go.
When I use my phone I default to desktop version and just zoom in.

Laptop when at home
iPhone on the go. I bought an iPad recently though as seeing things on the mobile (this forum as well as other internet forums and websites) was just too much of a PITA and I couldn't really get much done
Its much better on the iPad though
When I did use my phone I always set the forum to desktop mode.
