Roger88 Posted April 14, 2020 #52 Share Posted April 14, 2020 The app is not functioning correctly. Sometimes it takes forever to load or even does not load at all. I also have to log in everyt time I open the app. Moreover, for some unknow reason it slows my phone down when running. Comments dissapear or when I click post a comment, it will just freeze. I love the app in general but it needs some quiality fixes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a quick force quit it restarts without a log in. I don’t have to log in every time I use the app. Since it came back I only had to log back on once.

Rare sid_9169 Posted April 29, 2020 #55 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I was excited that the app returned, but now I'm so accustomed to using the browser version that I've forgotten how to add text then pictures then more text... Anyone care to enlighten me on doing this, as just can't seem to figure it out...

It is different for android, mixing text with pictures is a very cumbersome process for android. After inserting your first pictur e, you get this- Tap the thumbnail, and you get this box- Choose "Insert Inline". When you do, you get this gobbeldygook of BBCode- You can now type in more text, but you must make sure that your cursor is past the [/IMG], or else your pic will not appear. Now you can add another picture- Tap the new thumbnail, and add more text as above. Are we having fun yet? I can't imagine why anyone would want to do this rather than use the mobile site which is a breeze to use. (I am referring only to the android version of the app, I think that the ios version is much easier to use.) If anyone knows of an easier way of doing this with android, please tell.

Thank you so much... I have grown so used to the browser version now that I forgot how to use the app... One thing about the app, is that it allows for much quicker photo uploads using ship WiFi, which is why I was so mad when they took away the app a couple of years ago... I guess the irony is that now I can't even get on board a ship to test it out...Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is true, trying to upload pics from ship WiFi can be maddening! If they upload easier by using the app, going through all of the difficulties may be worth the trouble. Like you, I am eagerly anticipating the opportunity to test it out, let's hope that it is sooner rather than later! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please fix ThanksAre you using the iOS or Android version. I am using the iOS version and I have no issues once signed in except about once a day the app freezes. You need to sign in and out in from the hamburger menu. Sign in brings up the login box. Login from the participate button does not work and it only asks for that if you are not logged in to the app. You might have to sign out first from the hamburger menu and then sign back in.

Sent from my iPhone using Forums Using iOS When the app originally went belly-up, I created a bookmark for the mobile version which I have since been using. But, I have missed the subscribe/participant buttons of the app. In following your steps posted, should I also sign out of the mobile version before doing anything with the hamburger menu (top right corner?) And which hamburger menu (main Cruise Critic [white background] or Forums [smaller blue background])?

Sent from my iPhone using Forums Tried everything possible. But, while app gets my notifications in the blue forums hamburger menu (oddly, I can login but not logout of the blue hamburger menu (see pic) in the app but can in the mobile version), the "subscribe" and "participate" buttons in the app still don't work and keep asking for login. If you then login there, you just keep getting the login box (and Insm using the right login info). So, bottom line: 1) Mobile version works fine but does not have app's subscribe & participate buttons. 2) App version let's you sign in (but not sign out) of blue hamburger menu), see notifications but not access "subscribe" and "partipate" (which asks for login.
