Sadly, I have to leave HU, because HU have decided to close the app that I use on my iPad….. wishing you all well for the future.

Despair is what I am feeling about your leaving. I don’t understand why HU has shut you out. I feel that I’m missing something. I don’t see the reason for such a drastic action. Your kind influence will be missed. Someone on HU verbally abused me, yet their comments weren’t even deleted. I just don’t know……😔

Sillysausage234 in reply toIsinatra

They are doing away with the app it’s a pain in the buttock region apparently….I’m not sure what I’m on now but I got 2 ways of accessing h.u. But don’t know what you call the non app version

Isinatra in reply toSillysausage234

Oh! So it’s not HU disciplining? I have an iPad as well and I never downloaded an app. I go through safari as well.

in reply toSillysausage234

☺️ Gerald surely would not say this to you, Sillyone. At least I hope not. 🤭

You have me laughing out loud, again. 😄

The new photo really is a nice one. The other one was just as nice. 😉

Hey Don,

You can always access the website through Google, Chrome, Safari etc . I do that all the time.

I go in through safari also. I've never used the app.

Hey Don,I am THE worst when it comes to technology. But all I know is, I just have to type the "H" for Healthunlocked on my Chrome browser on my phone, and it gets me right into the site. I am not asked for a password or anything.

Don, I found HU on an Doninternet search for support groups. My browser has the url as healthunlocked.com. I think you can just search it and then log in again. If you've forgotten any log in information they can reset it via email. I don't have an app. I use my phone most of the time and that goes via the phone browser.

I logged in thru the site itself. I didn't even know there was an app 😅

Hope you are able to stay by logging on that way thru healthunlocked.com

I’m really sorry to hear that Don.

Hi Don. I have never used an app. I get emails from HU and get in that way, hope that helps you. Martin.

Surely you do not have to leave, Don. This is very fixable, just as the others have said. 😉

This sure got my attention. Something tells me you're in the U.K. I suspect it means something quite different there than in the U.S. 😱

I have never used the app, only ever used my browser on both my pc and kindle fire

Not surprised they are closing it. I use it for notifications only. Trust me the website is better. I’m on an iPad right now. iOS 15 was just the final nail.

Veteran250 profile image
Veteran250 in reply toBlueruth

I tried navigating around the website on my iPad, no joy….. perhaps I got used to the app.

Blueruth profile image
Blueruth in reply toVeteran250

Maybe. I stopped using both apps a while ago because I had no more patience for them, especially iPhone. I keep them installed for notifications only. A mobile app developer is very expensive. I imagine that is the issue.I hear you though. When I compare a new service I am considering it often comes down to the app. No app is a dealbreaker a lot of the time. That said I don't have Facebook installed. Their mobile website is terrible and I am certain that is intentional. But I feel the tradeoff is too high.

I don’t do Facebook nor any other social media….. just HU🙂
