Logged out of Community tab

So this app and everything about it is awesome. It’s completely ideal to have the grow log as well as the forum all in one place, easy peasy.

The only thing I’ve noticed about this app that is a bummer is how if you accidentally press the back button on the top, it takes you back to your grow log and logs you out of the community. It gets annoying when you’re say, checking out a thread and you want to go back to check a different one in the topic so you press the back arrow and then you’re logged out. So then you have to go log back in and find wherever you were before. Unless I am missing it, it seems there isn’t really an intuitive way to just go back a previous page. It seems like if you click on a thread to read it, you have to either press the back button and get logged out to get out of it, or press the 3 line menu icon on the left hand side and press the ‘community’ button. Which brings you to the main home thread of the forum. Which I guess is better than being logged out and having to log back in, but it’s still not ideal. I’d still have to go back and hunt the topic I was exploring instead of just being able to go back one step.

I hope this all makes sense, I apologize if not hah. Trying to explain something you’re not even completely sure on is tough

To the admins and whatever other staff are involved in this app - thank you.

Hey @thaynes. No, you’re completely right. It is one of the minor (but annoying) blips with the app. That and not being able to post pictures unless you go into the website. If there is a way to page back in the app I haven’t found it. I’m sure they will sort both out in time.

Hi @thaynes , thank you for your input. The forum is still being developed when it comes to app-related.
It sounds and it is frustrating you get logged out just by pressing the back button of the app. As I said, we still need to make changes to the community that can work better when is being used via the app.
For the moment, we recommend you to use the desktop version of the community, especially if you want to post photos or links because the mobile version does not allow that.
We’ll review this and see if some quick change can be done.

Is there going to be a way to remain logged in through the app? It would be nice to be able to switch back and forth between plants/pics and things without having to log in every time one leaves the forum….

The access to the forum will only be available via browser, so that won’t be an issue anymore.

When is that going to start?
