It looks as if my HU app has died - no new posts on it for a couple of days.

Is this deliberate?

The app has been abandoned for a couple of years, I'm afraid. Its use has been discouraged for some months.

See this post from roseabi from the end of September last year: healthunlocked.com/bridgeto...

Thanks, Nowster. Perhaps we need a new forum for forgetfulness.

As nowster mentioned, I fear HU stopped supporting the app, and rather suggests to use the website.

On a smartphone you can save the homepage of HU on your “Home Screen” and for most that functions just like an app.

(TIP: However, I also still use the app - besides the website - and logging out and logging in will help with your app getting stuck)

I didn't know there even used to be an app but this is very useful, thank you. Now have a short cut on my home screen 😃

Yes, and the great thing is that you can save different entry points. I have two HU saved on my home screen, one with general feed, and one that shows just my posts (as I often refer back).

Great! 👍🏽😊👏

Don't give me more ideas - running is taking over my phone as it is, what with C25K, NRC, Strava, apps for my watch, physio app etc! 😂

Ah yes, I was in all of a muddle when the app stopped working! I found the website very different to use. But I got there! 😊

Mine is still working 😝

It’s been unsupported for a good while, and they had annoying flash screens on it for a bit, but all is normal now… it was still available in the App Store when I changed phone but I believe this is no longer the case so I need to not smash this one!

Are you getting new feeds? My first clue that something was wrong was when all posts were at least 2 days old. All a pity - I’m finding this website messier to look at and navigate.

Yeah, feeds are intermittent I’d say… I never used that anyway.

Website is a mess to navigate by comparison, which is why I always stuck to the app.

Such a shame! The app was so user friendly.

Still using it but my replies don’t always post.

It doesn’t take long to get used to the website HeavyFoot , and its much more reliable than the app. My posts kept going into a black hole in it. And as nowster says, some advantages too…..
