[QUOTE=Hexxeh;29995884]Just did some simulated GPRS tests, maximum of 5kb/s and round trip latency of 1000ms, MTU of 576 bytes which is similar to your average out-in-the-field GPRS connection. Page loads averaged about 7 seconds, thread list load was about 3 seconds, forum list load was about 2.5 seconds. Login request took about 1.32 seconds. On a simulated 3G network, 120kb/s and round trip request latency of 600ms, MTU of 576 bytes: Page loads averaged about 2.5 seconds, thread list load was about 1 second, forum list load was about 0.8 seconds. Login request took about 0.9 seconds. Same page load in Safari took 20 seconds just for the HTML, more than double. Side note, Charles ([url]http://charlesproxy.com[/url]) is awesome for this kind of stuff. Can sniff all traffic to/from my devices for testing and even intercept requests in realtime to test error cases. Also does throttling and connection simulation for testing things like the above.[/QUOTE] Those are some pretty nice speeds. Good job
No idea if it has been asked before, but any chance of seeing a ticker on the app? Or maybe searching the forums?

A one man wolfpack you say? [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/c3fqz.jpg[/IMG]
[QUOTE=Forumaster;29997706]I take it you don't like the mockup? :frown:[/QUOTE] Not too keen. Gonna have a think about it this week see what I can come up with. BBcode support is top priority at the moment.
Well if there's any other looks you want me to work up while you work on the BBcode, just ask.

[QUOTE=Gordon Frohm;29990385]How could you have possibly missed [url="http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1087212-Snabbo"]this[/url]? There was even an announcement to everyone in the forums about the release of that app... :doh:[/QUOTE] ...I don't spend all my time on here?
[QUOTE=Pred4tor;29998179]...I don't spend all my time on here?[/QUOTE] It was up for at least a week
I cannot wait! I cant stand hitting the wrong button and having to wait for the page to load before going back.
Since you have to pay for the ACCOUNT upgrade, what would happen if you got banned? That's 2 bucks down the drain!
[QUOTE=Browser;30002848]Since you have to pay for the ACCOUNT upgrade, what would happen if you got banned? That's 2 bucks down the drain![/QUOTE] Don't get banned?
[QUOTE=Sc00by22;30003079]Don't get banned?[/QUOTE] This. Either you're new or you're an alt, so that might actually affect you.
It might've been answered already but I couldn't read it in the op. Do you plan on porting that to android?
How exactly would someone with no Java/Android experience port an application from Objective-C over to Android? (At least if I remember correctly, iOS apps are done in Objective-C)
Chill, it's just a question. I don't know what he can do and what not.

[QUOTE=Gordon Frohm;30003366]You'll want Overv's App: [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1055407-Facepunch-for-Android-App[/url][/QUOTE] Pretty sure he gave up on that a while ago. His private API server has been down for a while now.
[QUOTE=:awesome:;30003437]Pretty sure he gave up on that a while ago. His private API server has been down for a while now.[/QUOTE] He is busy with another application.
Goddamn those tab bar icons bother the shit out of me. I might go make some new ones if I get time. EDIT: Some delicious free ones to use. [URL]http://blog.twg.ca/2010/11/retina-display-icon-set/[/URL]
He'll probably go back eventually.
Man, if this app is all it looks to be, I'll fucking pay my friends to buy the app as well.
[QUOTE=Hexxeh;29966507]What's the damage? $4.99 per Facepunch account.[/QUOTE] This is highway robbery. Or rather, cell-tower robbery I suppose. $5 for an app? While I love Facepunch, it's not worth $5 to get on it through a medium other than a web-browser on my phone. I don't know about the Safari on iOS phones, but I do know that on my 2 year old Android phone Facepunch loads more than fast enough for me to use without it being frustrating. I should hope that you plan on dropping the price a little in the future. $5, while not a lot of money, can be a substantial amount for certain things, and for $5 I could buy something more worth the dollar.

Is Apple seriously that fucking... stuck up? (Not sure if right word) that they made an account on FP to gauge what the forum is like before 'allowing' an application that helps access it onto their market? That's horse shit. Fuck iOS, make an app like this for Android.
brb telling mother to drop everything else for my 16th birthday to be sure the phone is an iPhone. Need dat app

This app is perfect for any mobile device.
