Huh, someone is listening. Hats off to ya.

1. Useable search.
2. The ability to customize what is diplayed and in what order. Recent posts, rating, date, views, replies, status.
3. Ability to customize the view. Your dealing with Pocket PC's, Smartphones, Blackberries, Iphones. With the ability to display in portrait or landscape.
4. Text alerts might not be a bad idea if you could improve along with topic alerts. Being bombarded with useless post isn't an improvement.
5. Something like a subscription service or bookmark so you can keep a list of important topics for quick reference.

Need to think on this more......

how about just not breaking it again? A while back I couldn't get on at all for like a month.

I would like to have easy login functionality, rating of threads and the 'hot' icon.

It would also be nice to have these options at the top of the page, so I wouldn't have to scroll all the way to the bottom to click 'Next' or 'Last'.


I'll vote for that also! Especially the "Last" link. I can't tell you how many times I've had to scroll to the bottom.

+1

cyfan said:I need a view sorted by most-recent THREAD first, not most recent response. I'm tired of seeing 2 month old threads on the .mobi site because of the old "bump" philosophy.

I'm with cyfan. The only thing that discourages me from using Fatwallet Mobile is the inability to filter by most recent topics rather than most recent messages. I always want to see the latest deals first rather than see who has replied recently to a topic.

The other improvement would be to have account login and access. If we could log in to our accounts, then there could be countless other improvements added, such as access to favorites (this is the best way for me to track a deal while I am away from my computer), making changes to Fatwallet Mobile settings directly from your account with the main Fatwallet site, and having Fatwallet Mobile use the same settings as your Fatwallet account by default.

These would be really great improvements. Right now, I rarely use Fatwallet Mobile even though I am an avid mobile internet user.

Yeah what everyone else has suggested.

Also allow me to view FW in all its glory (classic view) on my iPhone.

Editable preferences or Sorting ability at the top of the screen. Link to the previous/next/last page at the TOP of the page.

A quick link to B&M or PM deals? If I am using me cell phone to browse FW, probably I am actually in some store trying to find an item or do a price match.
An easy reply function would be nice too as I can quickly tell other FWers that it is OOS/ how many left after I visit the store.

Actually, I've always wondered why FatWallet isn't following the existing Message Order preference. It has always annoyed me that, despite the fact I've got "newest first" selected, when I'm looking at the mobile version, I have to click through to the "last" page to get the most recent posting in a thread.

I never knew mobi existed...I think I'll stick with the regular FW on my Nokia 770.

I've been meaning to post this as a request too! I typically access the mobile FW hot deals forum only when I'm in a store and I think "I wonder what's a hot deal here?" It would be cool if we could quickly find hot deals for leading often-shopped B&M stores.

My request for the ability to search only in titles is for this same reason... to find any hot deals available in a certain store. It would be better if I could easily find all B&M deals for a given chain.

I don't like the First, Previous, Next buttons on the right side of screen. Have to move the cursor from the left where the links are to the bottom right. Not very efficient.

I think mobi is perfect the way it is at least on my Playstation Portable. I use my PSP around the house to see what is happening on FW. The format is perfect for the PSP.

I also use the 8300 BlackBerry Curve and it seems good, functional.

Thanks!

Ratings are up on .mobi
OOOPS, fixing glitch, back soon

What you asked for most, with questions to clarify your desires:

Sort by recent topics.
Add ability to choose number of posts displayed (12, 20, 100).
Allow reply. Quick reply?
Allow title-only search. Make default?
Add page navigation (previous/next or page numbers?) to top.


I'll get next most popular up soon. Since design time is a bit limited, we'll focus first on features not requiring such attention.
