Hey, im sure this has already been suggested , but any idea if NS will come out with one of these. I personally spend more time on my phone rather then my laptop and a newschoolers app would be cool and way more efficient for people like myself!

So, what do you think ?

Every time this comes up I feel the need to ask the question, why? What will an app get you that the mobile site won't?

a mobile app is more efficient rather then going onto safari and search NS everytime.

Set it as a home page button.

A native app would literally just be the same as the mobile version, but it would take time to create, time that could be better used to make the entire site better.

Can't you leave it as your home page or always have an NS tab open?

There was an app before but it never caught on. The mobile sight is incredibly well made imo. Except I just want a drop down forum menu.

An app would be cool but it's not really needed. Messages are the only complaint I have for mobile. You have to type like one long line so it's really hard to respond. Also, you can't go to a members profile and look at their pics/ watch their videos but again it's not really the end of the world. I could be wrong but I think this is on "the list" of things they want to do. Again, i could be wrong but I think I saw that somewhere.
