iPhone problems with MSE forum

Anyone else having problems using the forum with an iPhone? I've tried it in two different phones and it's the same. It sticks when trying to scroll and instead of scrolling clicks on links instead. It's almost to the point of unusable.
Not sure if it's just me, my connection/my phones or something changed from the mse end?

hi
well i've just tried it on an iphone 5 using both the safari and chrome browsers in both landscape and portrait mode and it's worked fine. scrolling thru the threads and highlighting one to read etc is not an issue so can only assume it's something to do with your phone or it's settings?0 -
Yes, I've been having problems for the last few days, I was wondering if it was the phone, but email etc is okay.
not sure what Iphone it is, as it was donated, but probably a 3.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.0 -
Mine is an iPhone 4. Maybe it's just an issue with the older iPhones. It's very frustrating, as I only really use the forum on the phone! The google browser is very slightly better but still almost unusable!0

I'm going to test it on other sites in a bit. Not really been on it much lately, I'll report back if it's just mse.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

All other forums I view seem fine. Seems like something at mse has changed in the last few days! Hope it starts working again don't want to turn on the compute reverting I want to use mse!0 -
I still can't decide if its the phone or the site. Most sites seem ok but the bbc good food one wouldn't play. And MSE seems better today than yesterday although still not quite right. It's seriously objecting to me making the page bigger/smaller at the moment, but again just on here. It's just very jerky and jumpy and doesn't want to scroll.
Have you done the latest iOS upgrade? I haven't, and I'm wondering if its to do with that. (Says she, clutching at straws.) I think I'll put this on site feedback to see what they say.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

Site feedback is a good idea. I will do too.
I think it is a combination of the phone and this particular forum not working together to some reason.
I haven't done the latest update. It seems to slow my phone down each time I so it!0 -
I also get a notchy, un workable scrolling if using my iphone 4 on here. It's only been doing this in the last few days or so0

Now on site feedback if anyone wants to chip in, although I've linked to this thread anyway.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
