To access the forum from a mobile device, you will need to download an app called "ProBoards".
Right now it is available on iOS and Android for $2.99. The iOS app is universal, which means it is optimized for both iPhone and iPad use.
Once you downloaded the app, just follow the steps below to add the forum.
Android Devices:
Launch the app and then press on the "Me" tab listed at the top of the screen.
Press on the "Add Forum" button found at the bottom of the screen
What you type in the box that comes up depends on the web address of the forum you want to visit:
- If the forum you want to visit has a .proboards.com address (ie http://wristwatchforums.proboards.com/), simply type in wristwatchforums into the box, then just below the box choose the top option that will display wristwatchforums.proboards.com. Once selected, press the OK button and you'll be taken to the forum.
Apple iOS Devices:
Launch the app and press the "Forums" tab at the bottom of the screen, and then press the "+" button found in the top-right hand corner of the screen.
In the screen that comes up, what you type in the box provided depends on the web address of the forum you want to visit:

Once selected, press the OK button and you'll be taken to the forum.
Here are some screen shots to give you an idea of what you will see.
then...
You will then be prompted to log in.
Make sure you log in with your username and not your display name.
For example, my display name is Chip but my username is "admin". (that's what ProBoards automatically assigns to the first member)
I would use "admin" to log in and not Chip.
That's it!
