Will the app ever have access to the forums?

I have an IPhone XR...through the app you can login to the RHP website and it's just like you're on a desktop.

I'll never say never to this - a read-only mode might be possible initially.

There are a few technical reasons for not doing this right now. (And currently all app work has to be done twice - natively too - for both Android and iOS.). *

So the responsive web site is probably your best bet right now.


*It could be possible to embed the web site forums within the app to avoid this.

Yeah, I usually just access the website on my phone, even to make moves.

One-stop shopping, so to speak.

Me too but apps use a lot less data.
I'm on a fixed data cellphone plan.

This is certainly the case with RHP too - the apps do use considerably less data.

Google Chrome is the worst for data usage. IMO
