    Thanks Kobajo we’ve put a lot of work into insuring that the mobile experience is complete and accessible.

    Webmaster, I’m a software developer and I’m well aware of the pain of maintain both the web and the app interfaces synced. Even big and wealthy companies like Facebook fail to do it properly. It’s just from my experience with several sites that offer just the web based app as an app, it’s usable but not comfortable, the functionality is there but it’s awkward (I’m writing from my iPhone now, and the box is wider than my screen so I can’t see the end of the previous sentence. I can’t see the post I’m replying to, or what thread am I posting to and various UI bugs like in the screen shot).
    The limitation I described comes from the iOS itself, so except for making a silly one website browser app that opens SV, I doubt there’s a way around this. But I don’t like this solution, a well tailored app would make the worlds difference.

    I would use a robust mobile web version more than I would use any all that couldn’t preserve the site’s function. But that’s just my personal preference. I’m usually the one on some random website trying to disable the mobile version because it doesn’t do half what the full site does-not a problem here I should add, which is much appreciated especially because I don’t have Internet access from my phone right now.

    I could see there being some cool companion features, like being able to make a workout calendar, pinning certain lessons to a day or adding notes, and syncing that back to the sv website….something that was almost like a “mobile trainer,” an app generally meant to be used as more of a workout assistant/tracker/planner like myfitnesspal or fitocracy. That’s the kind of app I tend to use most. Apps that attempt to replace a web browsing experience I tend to use with less frequency.

    So webby will let a fellow coder help him work on it for realistic practice? >.>

    I meant if you guys decide to make an app. Especially if it is in objective c or java for fairly obvious reasons.

    I would love to see a studioveena app to make using this site while on the go. I’m rarely on a laptop/PC outside of work so I’m usually browsing on my phone. SV already has a great mobile website but having that on an app would give users easier access.

    Onceuponapole – Could you share your opinions on why an app would make it easier?

    I think an app would be awesome! Especially if it didn’t need internet connection after downloaded/updates ect. Plus every week or however long Veena could do a paid package update with the following weeks moves? It would be fun.

    I want to clarify, we aren’t planning an app. The thread was posted to see how many “app” features we could potentially encompass with our web interface.

    My problem is that when I go to my studio I don’t get any phone signal, there’s no wifi and the owner doesn’t even have lined internet. It’s a barn conversion in the middle of country fields!!
    So even tho I find browsing SV easy everywhere else I can’t use it at my studio when I go for a practice at all! I have to write down/remember Veenas instructions on a move!! It rarely works, when I come home and check the video I’ve always forgotten something!!
    An app would help with this right?!
    So that’s why I would want one anyway

    Amiloo – There wouldn’t be room on your phone for all the videos, so an app wouldn’t fix this problem 🙁
