Feedback:

- Mark as read feature for threads
- Enlarge Lloyd sidebar button
- When going to forums, would be nice if my favorites were the first column.
- AC app is full of awesomeness! Great job!

Edit: Add Play Store links to posts. For example, the Mosaique post linked me to tagged posts but not the Play Store.

Edit2: When reading threads in the Forums, is it possible to read thread links in the app instead of launching the browser?

Really like this Android central app. Is there a way to search the forums for keywords using this app?

It would be great to be able to search the blog /news too. Search is something that I use on the website often.

It could easily be just me, but almost every time I open the app, I get prompted to choose from Drive, Gmail, and Skydrive to complete the action. I don't even know what action that is. Share maybe? Not app-breaking, but I have to hit back whenever I open the app.

Also, featured forums take me to the site on my browser.

And last thing. There's no easy way to see if I'm logged in. I go to the forums and I can't see the last three tabs, so I tap on Account on the sidebar and I'm logged in. But nothing tells me so.

And just so we're clear, I love this app. Great job!

Hi guys, awesome app! Really enjoying using it and even started using the forums thanks to it. I am curious when I download a podcast as mp3, where does the actual file go? I can't find it in my Play Music, instead I can only see it in that built in "download" view on my Nexus 4 running stock. Cheers and thanks!

So far, love the app. But is anyone else having issues with logging into their account?? :-\ Still getting "Webpage not available" when I attempt to log on via my Droid 4 w/JB.

Me too. Does anybody know where the app downloads the mp3 version of the AC podcast to? It downloads on my phone but then its gone and I can't find it anywhere on my phone either. I fall back to streaming and have to remember where I left off (as well as spotty AT&T coverage).

Love the app so far. Thanks

Cant comment on Jerry's n4 zebra article, even though logged in (I checked).

Cant revise comments, either, but that may be a Good Thing.

Hey AC,
I really like your app, especially the option to open links with the app, it's so fast :eek:
But I think, when you are reading an article in the app, the 'up' button should always get you to the app's main page, not back to where you came from.

Your phone's back button should get you one step back in time, the 'up' button (in the upper-left corner) should get you one step up in the app you are using.

I still don't know where they put it, but if you use the Downloads app, there it is. Now to see if it will remember when I pause it...

Is there anyway on the new Android app to go to the 1st unread post in a thread? Everyone I visit and click on a thread I have been reading it takes me to page 1 post 1.

Am I missing a setting somewhere?

Weird. Is that persisting?
YEP. Just tried again. And couldn't post to his recent "Google Now will change..." article.

So I went into Account. It showed me logged in. Click "Link existing accounts." Android Central and iMore show as already linked. Made no changes, click "save links." Went back to the "Google Now" piece, and posted comment "Yep." It posted. Hrmmmm.....

I don't think it supports that now. Hopefully a future update.

I'm not sure, but I think it only works on ICS and up. A lot of apps are starting to drop gingerbread support.
