New chat room - using mobile device

Jean_TX · 03-09-2013, 11:45 AM

The new chat room works well on my 7" tablet (Android OS) ...YAY! The only difficulty is that the text size for my postings to chat are in a very very small font, whereas other peoples' postings are in a uniform readable size. I cannot control the displayed font size, so it makes chatting somewhat difficult. Would it be possible for y'all to contact the folks who supply the mobile chat software and have them look into a fix for this?

I want to thank all the people here at BFP for making chat possible with mobile devices - it may not be perfect yet, but it is doable and very much appreciated.

We'll ask them about that. You probably can get around that by using a browser on your table to access the room.

I could possibly look for another thread but I have a cold (insert pathetic face) ... I don't see the icon for the chat room at all in the green banner. Is it somewhere else now?

Thanks

Look right above the link for the reunion info click where it says chat room

I have tried mobile chat using both the mobile Google Chrome browser and the Dolphin browser. The results are the same. Like I indicated, chat itself works just fine - it is only the display of my postings that is sightly problemmatic.

Thanks for looking into it for me/us!

I use it on an iPhone and the chat and font is fine

This may be a very stupid question, but I can't find the chat room. There isn't a link that I can see, and I have looked all over.

Fever-

On the front page there is a rainbow-colored logo that says "chat room". Just click it!

Ok so I need help. I am trying to run chat on my phone. I downloaded the app. But it asks for a chat integer??? I dont know what that is..
Then i try to open chat through the browser it just stays on the Welcome page. Just sits there. So wondering how to get chat to work on the samsung galaxy s3.

Thanks,
Curly
