To all members

Moderators have noticed that there seems to be an increase in posts where numbers are appearing as emojis and making posts difficult to read, we appreciate this must be frustrating for the poster and those trying to interpret the post.

This is more than likely that the poster is using the DCUK app to post, unfortunately both the android & IOS apps are out of date and in the process of being updated so not all the functions work as they should.

We advise that you use your browser to post anything on the forum rather than the apps. Below is the latest information on the app development from admin which was updated July 2024

Thread 'Diabetes Forum App'

You can simply use your browser, no need for the app.

For my part I only use the forum because of the app. I find accessing via the browser clunky and am faced with so much info to sort through. Have a definite aversion to it.

Great news. Thanks for the info, I’m so glad the app is being updated. I find it much easier to navigate than going through the browser on my phone. It has become increasingly problematic over the last year or two though and as a result I’ve used the forum less and less.

Tapatalk app works quite well and does not have the emoji issue

It's a good stand-in until the official app hits the stores

That’s what I’m using now, , but I’ve started having a few problems with this too in the last couple of days. Maybe it’s just my ancient phone!
