    It's technically a web app. You'd be surprised at how many popular apps are also web apps; wrapped for distribution in app stores.

    For some reason when I'm sending messages via the mobile site my commas (,) turn into %2C and my question marks (?) turn into %3F. Is this happening to anyone else? It makes message quite hard to understand!

    That does not shock me as those are the standard escape sequence for those characters.

    I'm getting the Error Loading Page notification when trying to load Forums. Everything else loads fine.

    I noticed this today as well, it appears every character is being encoded.

    IPhone 4 here too. I've been having the same issues for about a week now. I also get the error message when I select Search.

    From the badge added to the home screen%2C I am no longer able to access the application%2Fwebsite as it fails to allow me to login (guessing this might be related to escaping characters%3F). I can access fine from within Safari but the problem exists only when added to the home screen. %0A%0AI'm using an iPhone 4S.

    And as you can see since I posted from my iPhone, the substitution issue is definitely present.

    Any chance that @Mike could comment on what has changed recently and what can be done (if anything) by users to get it working again?

    Android here, and I feel the mobile site is useless until this is resolved

    Thank you for the reports. I believe this character encoding issue has been resolved. It may take a few moments for the fix to work its way through your browser cache. You may speed up the process by clearing your browser cache manually.

    Looks like it has been addressed in my opinion!!!

    Still have the issue of the invalid login even though the same login works for me on the mobile and full sites from in Safari - failure only when added to home screen.

    Any ideas?

    We need the Top 100 lists!!!

    Also, a 'Last Page' button would be nice for the forums. I don't want to have to use the spinner every time to get to the last page.

    Still not fixed for iphone. It seems I can get into everything but the Homebrewing forum.

    Seems set up well but slow..im just glad BABE doesn't automatically direct you to the mobile version right away and are at least perfecting it first. Cheers to that.
