I realize that updating code isnt free I'd be willing to pay $4-5 for a working version or at least one that gets updated to try and fix the issues

$2 will get you a slightly newer one (Apr 2013 vs Dec 2012): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.endoftime.android.forumrunner&hl=en
Edit: Never mind, I just installed a newer version from a different site (1.3.18.1 vs the 1.3.18 that TBN runs) and it has the same issues with images not loading and half of the bar at the bottom.

I agree, especially since as of now the app is ad-free. I'm guessing this site is generating the revenue it was at some point as more people use the app and the banner clicks have probably decreased.

Though I could see it now in the play store... "download the tbn app for free... and for $3.99 you can get the version that works!"

If tbn is already created by forum runner, why would it not have the same issues? And if forum runner works well, why doesn't tbn?

So the unfortunate reality about Forumrunner (our app developer) is that development of the app as well as bug fixes slowed considerably when the founder of the company sold to Internet Brands.

We're considering a couple of options to provide a better mobile experience, the most likely being a mobile version of the site.

Right now about 30% of our traffic is mobile and only a tiny portion of that is through the app. I suspect that would go up with a mobile theme/responsive design.

It's on my to-do list to address over the next 4-6 weeks.

Thank you for the update. Would a connection from a mobile device using a Web browser requesting desktop site show up in your 30 percent sample? That is how I often connect because the droid app is so bad with photos.

I use Chrome on my android. It works ok, but no easy way to upload photos that I know of. Anyone know how?

A good design that works in any modern mobile browser are the best solution, suppose easy handling of picture upload might be the tricky part.
