Hey Fever app-ers,

I'm currently working on an update to the app, hopefully to be released in time for the new season, but can't think of cool new things to put into the app. So this is your chance to suggest a feature that may (or may not) end up being included in the update. Currently on the list of things to add:

  • View the Active Topics list
  • Quote/This posts

Suggest away!

Possible to change the way the page loads so instead of scrolling up to get past what you just read you scroll down to continue reading?

Tidy up quotes, fix post loading, and allow zooming on images/make them bigger.

Please.

Actually another thing, I can't get youtube videos that are in posts to work. If I go through website they load and play, but they don't for me in the app

Thanks Jeff. I'm pretty happy with the app. What about player profiles?

My experience is with iOS:

Working links.

A way of sorting out heavily nested quotes so they don't make you scroll heaps.

Subscribed threads - subscribe and access through a subscribed threads section.

Graphics sized properly (they all appear tiny and you can't zoom).

The PM function is something I'd like to see as top of the list, even for this website if possible.It is the only thing missing.

Have a separate app for pm's so you can add more features to that app and later charge a premium for that app, despite the fact that all you have achieved is to make the original app less usable. ... wait, this is Bookface right?

I agree that the iOS app lacks the ability to play videos and click on links of pictures, so that would be huge if that can be fixed. I like the idea of subscribed threads, but if you can have an Active Topic button/thread like on here then that would be fine for me.

It occurred to me that there might be other things at the top level of the app, not just forums.

There is the Fever Card that still says 2013/14.

Other ideas (go ahead, be brutal):
- reference for reasonably settled chants (for new people - the forum for this doesn't really do this?)
- YF merchandise ordering or offerings
- player profiles
- podcast player/pod list
- contact YF details
- stadium rules (vs what security think they are)
- league tables/results for other NZ and local leagues (assuming there are feeds somewhere - is there an app for this already?)
- event calendar (games, friendlies, club nights and so on)
- analysis graphs of performance (these are posted to threads sometimes - some would be interesting to check often)

Oh, and an iPad/tablet version of the app would be great. Someone might have said this already.

Pull down to refresh thread/thread list/forum list.

I really like the simplicity of this app. I get my nix news and forums. Sorted.
And its presented in a stylish way.

The little changes I think my improve it are:
Being able to edit avatar/quote in app
Removing fever card function
And the ability to scroll back through previous statements on a thread topic.
(If this can already be done id love to know how)

Cheers

I have an amazing ability to find my way out of mazes. I'm pathological.

How about a built in podcast button to allow quicker android access? Prferably without the adverts other software insists on.

The beta platform testing environment released for iOS and looking forward through v8

Version 2.0 for Android has now been released, and it's completely free!

Features:

  • View the list of Active Topics in the forums
  • Quote/This posts
  • View all the chants
  • Download and listen to 'In the Zone' podcast
  • View the latest A-League standings
  • Push notifications when we add a new podcast or chant

If you've already downloaded the app, the update may have come through automatically, but if it hasn't (or for some reason you haven't downloaded the app yet...), head to https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.... to download it.

An update for iOS will come out soon - it won't have all the features we've added to the Android app just yet because our resident iOS programmer is gallavanting around the world, but we promise that we'll add them all in soon!

Lads, this update is superb. Well done to all. Super impressed with chant section. Stoked about active topics option and the 'this' and quote buttons. And push notifications for poddy is great too. Plus the fevercard format is now legible! Thanks once again!

Listen up everybody. Patrick has gone nuts on this app and put in hours and hours of dev time. And he hasn't even fucked it up.

This is very un-Fever and above and beyond the call of duty.

So. Epic round of applause for Pashtrick and everyone should buy him pints on Sunday and get him ratarsed. This will be more in keeping with the expectations of the Fever.

Love your work Paddy.

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

He's not old, grey, fat or jaded enough to be granted "Full" Fever status.

One thing. When the whole thread doesn't load if fails to load the newest posts once you select '7 newer posts'. It used to fail, now it does nothing.

Two small things Patrick. What should i upload onto my tablet to hear the podcasts for my android samsung galaxy tab3. I get ghe page just fine but no play button. 2nd thing is, can you add a stayyed logged in option into the app. I do this with the normal webpage on the laptop. A shit load of work you have done. Stand very proud of it.
