Iphone Vs Android

[construct1245]

I'm team Iphone

[gingejbee]

I'm not...simply because I don't want any of Apple's over-priced and hyped stuff.

I use Android, my wife uses Apple. When there is a problem Android is easier to resolve

I was using Safari and my iphone never worked properly with AB.  Since the emojis were introduced yesterday it doesn't work at all with AB.  I tried three more search engines, none of which work properly with AB.  My husband's android works perfectly well.

If anyone can recommend a search engine that does work with an iphone and AB I would be very grateful.

Up till this latest add on for AB I never had an issue using my iPhone on AB now it’s really annoying

It's not the search engine, it's the browser that you're using that's causing you grief.

RH, my iphone was always ok for posting, but a couple of the moderator's buttons can't be used on it.  

Since messing about with search engines yesterday I now have two avatars side by side and no emojis - and that's with Safari and the others I tried.

[naomi24]

Oh yes, that's what I mean.  Thanks 1ozzy.  Still half asleep.

[1ozzy]

And now links don't work.

Well done AB😪

But at least we have emojis 🤣

[1ozzy]

And a webpage that keeps resizing itself...

Hmm,,,

[Redhelen72]

I don’t know if I am imagining this but didn’t they try emojis years ago and had to abandon it because of the chaos that ensued

[naomi24]

I dont remember emojis but I remember they tried a PM facility.  I don't know why that didn't last long.  It seemed to work ok.

Ah, is this why I get two Zaluzhnys on my iPhone!

[Redhelen72]

can one have too many Zaluzhnys🤔

[naomi24]

You've got two avatars as well, ich?  And like me, no emojis or bold/italic buttons?

[Redhelen72]

I had the same Naomi - on laptop now so everything works

[ichkeria]

No buttons, but having seen advice from ABEditor, I see that the emoji buttons work. I am flitting between phone and laptop at the moment (I need to stop playing and get on with some work :🙄.

No indeed, two Zaluzhnys would be Russia's worst nightmare.

Thanks AB!

[naomi24]

Laptop is fine.  As far as I know it's just the iphone but I haven't tried the desktop yet.  I'm presuming that will be ok too.

[ichkeria]

iPhone keypad emojis work I meant

[naomi24]

I haven't got them.  Just two avatars side by side.

[ichkeria]

If you load the iPhone emojis keyboard that should work.

My Ukrainain keyboard already worked as I recall, but I don't think the emojis did previously. If all this can be made to work properly it should help to spice AB up a little, without having to drown out the ...
