Neopets Mobile Closed Beta

[gera]

If it just gives us a tapatalk-style forum feature for the boards I'd be thrillllllled

I would love if they reworked the boards

[Kubfu]

Nice! I hope it's don't be so long to release.
We need a app for years

Oh man, so jelly that I am not on that beta test!

This is a big step in the right direction if they finally achieve this change. These days I've noticed that most new mobile apps are just a wrapper for the browser and they just load the html5 website that has content that adjusts for the browser window size to work essentially. So all the discussion about a dedicated app in this thread, I don't think that's the right direction for TNT to take all their content. But rather, a nice modern html5 site and then start to transition flash games over to html5 as well!

I've heard there's crazy shortcomings in the way they serverside scripting was done - not surprised since A&D left TNT, I don't think anyone else had enough knowledge about the backbones of it to make wholesale changes... The database they have would be a mess since it was created really in the early days of the modern web we use. It's a pretty big task they are undertaking without losing data and without significant downtime of the website too. Will be interesting to see how it pans out.

I hope the app is successful. This is TNT's best chance at revitalizing this company.... If they don't manage it, then I think we can safely say it's the breaking point. Someone said neo is worth 22 mill right now, seems like a lot, but it's really not....Nonetheless, maybe this app will increase the value. Only time will tell!

[Delibird]

Too bad it's restricted. Maybe @(you need an account to see links) can give us some incite

[Rinna]

I'm really excited to see they are at least trying

[Oshun]

Ooo interested to see how this will turn out. Main things I'm hoping for are quick clickable dailies list, customization hub, and access to boards. Pound access would be cool too, but I'm sure it will probably be the most basic features available at first.
