is really not liking this recent upgrade ....when my lappie died a slow and painful death I was in a quandary as to buy a new one or upgrade to an iPad ...now whilst I admit am not the sharpest tool in the box when it comes to technology even I can see that it's really not that compatible with this site....well it isn't now.
I no longer have a member list at the side of chat and have to access it from a different screen
I no longer have a cam list ^^^^ see above. Or room list
If I receive a pm I don't know about it unless I scroll all the way to the top of chat..really frustrating as I'm having to leave the main chat n often miss parts of conversation
If I say for instance go to check my fb or messenger I'm auto thrown out of chat for inactivity
I no longer have a bold underline or italic option
A lot of the cams won't open although I understand this is possibly due to teething problems
I understand I cannot open my own cam n that's my fault for buying an iPad without researching properly as to whether Adobe was compatible with it and I can live with that (for now) but surely seen as a lot of people are now buying tablets as a way of accessing the Internet a site upgrade should have taken this into consideration.
And breathe...rant over!!!!
Did you try the mobile option:

Defeats the object of buying a tablet cubes lol
Not really... an iPad is a mobile device. It's just a big iPhone. ;)
I just tried chat (not the mobile version) on my iPad and it all seems fine to me. However, that was using the iPad in landscape mode (sideways). When I turned it round to portrait mode the right hand menus vanished because the screen isn't wide enough. Seems you need to use landscape mode. :thumbup:

I mentioned this in another thread last week re my Hudl2.
If I use landscape then I can't view cams and read/write in chat at the same time. The problem doesn't replicate itself in other furums' chatrooms.
Whilst I still have a functioning computer, I rarely use it to access the interwebby now, and I don't want to start it up just to enter a chatroom.
The mobile version doesn't want to play ball with my hudl.
We will take a look at that.
In portrait its really a case of where to put these things so that cameras and the chat dialogue can be seen, there's still options at the top though to view the other bits, we will have another look at the tablet layout to see if we can squeeze them in next to the cameras.

I'll drop you a pm about that.
Just wanted to say, Ive been using iPad since before the update and its now much better, and a lot more useable, so thank you. Still a few wobbly bits but overall very good

Thanks, I guess we can't please everyone, but that is the aim, the thing with portrait layout is that space gets reduced and if everything was plonked in at the side there wouldn't be a lot of space of chat dialogue, even with the old layout you'd need to drag it around to see everything, but were always open to suggestions if anyone has a good idea for a decent layout.
I always use the iPad in landscape for browsing so never had any issue with orientation and sizing issues biggrin
A change has gone up, if you refresh chat you should now see different options at the top, the one that says Cams/Rooms/Watchers alters the layout to show the other stuff.
