Help us test the new South Carolina Sporting mobile app (Gather)

[Alan]

Hey everyone,

South Carolina Sporting is now available inside the Gather app, and we'd love a handful of members to help us test it.

Best part: you don't need to create a brand-new forum account. Just sign up / log in using the same email address you use on South Carolina Sporting and it should link automatically.

Download Gather:
iPhone (iOS): https://gather.forum/ios
Android: https://gather.forum/android

What to test:

• Install Gather and search for South Carolina Sporting
• Log in with your usual email
• Browse a few threads, try a reply, maybe start a new post
• Let us know what feels off (login, loading, posting, notifications, etc.)

Where to leave feedback:
Please reply to this thread with your notes. Even a couple bullets helps a ton. If you include your phone model + iOS/Android version, that's perfect.

One extra perk: inside Gather you can also create your own private groups (local cutting crew, equipment chat, firewood plans, etc.) if you want a space to talk without posting publicly.

Thanks for helping us make the mobile experience better.

So far so good.

The format very closely resembles the web version.

It seems intuitive and very easy to use. Very few apps resemble their web version.

Just got into it. Will see how it goes but at first blush it behaves just like I would expect from a forum app.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out! I will appreciate any feedback you have. We are making improvements.

One thing I've noticed - since I'm in a number of forums, my home screen shows the latest activity from all of them, which takes a little getting used to but I think I'm actually going to end up liking it. When I click on a post (say, on this forum), when I finish reading the post and back out, I end up in the forum feed rather than the aggregate feed where I started. I have to then tap the home button to get back to my full feed. It would be nice if it acted like a browser and went back to whatever you were on last rather than like moving up a directory in a file system.
