I would love to see an App!
would love to be able to pull up a client's board through an app, which would allow a quick view to the pics while shopping, or in the car, etc.
We definitely plan on doing this, however, I am curious to know what you like and don’t like about using Wecora on your iphone/android right now.
The site is optimized for mobile and lets you view the board and shopping list simply by rotating the device.
Please let us know if you have tried this and what you like and dont like as it will help guide the app.

@Elizabeth - sorry to hear about the troubles but this is honestly the first we are hearing about this. In fact, I just tried on both a concept and board and they both render extremely quick with comments on my iPhone 6.
As for the list view rotating, keep in mind that concepts no longer have a list view, which is why you dont see it on the iPhone. However, we enhanced that view also so that you actually see the board WITH the comments on the iPhone. We will be introducing the budget/list view back into concepts in 2015, but right now they dont exist on the desktop or iPhone.
Here is what the board looks like rotated on my iPhone:

And here is what a concept looks like on the iPhone:

As for the app and having offline capabilities, that's definitely on the radar. If you have further problems, please let us know at support@wecora.com

Oh, and I have never been able to figure out how to add the Wecora Bookmarklet to my devices...would an app help with that?

Since the re-launch in November my devices do not seem to work as well; they are slow, turning the phone no longer changes the feed to list view (may be the new ios) and images do not load correctly. It does not show comments or have all of the functions of the file/view/share tabs.It also uses a lot of battery power or so I am told by clients and vendors. Sometimes I am working in locations that do not have wifi (for my ipad) or a strong signal (for my iphone).

I completely understand and I'm the same way. Even if the app is more limited than the mobile website, I sometimes just find myself going to the app.
Once we have budgeting done we will get on the app.

I don't have any "dislikes" about using the site through my phone. I just never seem to use it. Going to a site in general just seems not as convenient. I realize it's probably two more clicks, so I'm honestly not sure why I feel that way. This holds true for me for ANY site, not just yours. I'm not sure if I'm alone on that or not.
