Hey fam! I hope all of your cooks went delicious this week. If you had any questions, learning experiences, or really tasty dishes you want to throw into the conversation mix - please do! Yes, you lurkers can contribute too (I see you!) 😛 😛 😛 **A question I thought about:** Do you think having this community accessible via mobile would be cool to have? ---

Isn’t it already? I’ve only been to this forum a handful of times on my computer. ---

You can access the website on your phone but I was thinking something a little more accessible like an app. ---

Is this going to stay active or is the focus going to move to Facebook? ---

I primarily access this forum on my cellphone. What benefits would an app bring? I’m not trying to be negative, and I’m open to the idea, it just seems a bit superfluous in my mind. That said, if there were real benefits to using the app, I would use it. ---

Much like Mr Ego, I really don’t see the point of going for a standalone app for the forum. I mean, there are various forum apps like tapper type out there, but it’s just as easy to use a web browser. It’d be much better seeing the development time (and cost) put into furthering the development on the control apps etc. It’s seriously painful having 2 cooks in the house and only being able to pair the APC to one device. ---

I feel that Anova would be better served by spending their resources on the actual devices and the software/apps for it rather than squandering them on a mobile app for a forum that only gets like 8 posts a day. ---

If you’re currently using an internet app (chrome, firefox, a stock internet browser, etc) on your phone, how would it become more accessible with a stand alone app? ---

Hey guys! Thanks for your input. I think all of the responses are fair and they make sense. Let me know if there’s anything at all you’d love to see in the community! I am all ears. ---

Nah - not negative at all. Thanks for your input! I understand where you’re coming from. ---

@acs We’re constantly improving and changing things for better usability for the apps and devices (user feedback helps us with that A LOTTT). No worries - that’s still a primary focus. Also, the forum might be small and cozy right now, but there’s a lot more #AnovaFoodNerd love to go around. Have faith mannnn. 😛😍 ---

You really need to spend money on improving the testing/qualifying department. If you even have one.
