Why does the rennlist phone app lack so much? I mean seriously just pay a person to develop an app that simply works. It would keep your paying members paying. Even make the app a member exclusive.

Have you visited the site with your mobile browser if you dislike the Garage Talk app so much? We are able to make and are making adjustments there quite frequently.

Yes, safari with iphone. If you quote a post you cannot see what your are typing as it always defaults your view to the bottom of the message window, so you always type blind. Pretty annoying, try it out.

95% of my usage is mobile.

Okay, so quote this post and place your cursor Before the [quote and and start typing a sentence and let me know what happens to your view while typing.

I have had the same issue as OP. I have to type blind and then scroll up to see what I have typed and I was using Google Chrome. It is not great. Just my two cents.
