Is the SW app worth it

Suck or not suck. That's what I'm asking here.

The app will look just like when you are on the browser. You'll have it together with the list of the other apps you have on your phone. You can also enable "Push Notifications" (from the Notifications page).

@Nuno thanks! Sounds like nuno what you are talking about.

Mobile app?

I guess ok. I've used it for... uh... 🤔 quite a while now.

Since my former account.

Which I forgot the password to & lost the email it was associated with.

Over a year?

It works.


I'm not devastated.

So just to update it doesn't just look like a copy of the web page, but without any browser crap up top so I can't accidentally hit home and go to the Roger's website. And that right there is a thumbs up for me.

I do not believe there is an actual app.
You do have the option to put a shortcut on your phone or computer. That's what I use instead of going online to the actual site. It's just a shortcut that you can create.

@MarkPaul
I'm far past being a 'boomer', Lol.
To me, an app will always be one I locate in the Play Store and install from there.

@JerseyGal I meant the guy claiming there is an app.
JerseyGal · 51-55, F
@MarkPaul
I understand. : )
There's no app, just a shortcut you can use

I didn't even know there was an app. Is it new?
PhaqueYou · M
@Firegod74 yeh.

It's ok.
Firegod74 · 46-50, M
@PhaqueYou well ok is good enough for me.
PhaqueYou · M
@Firegod74 it is 🤪

If you make an account with google...they will ask you if you want to add this app to your homepage...we are pretty grassroots as much as we are allowed to be.. (;
There's a Similar Worlds game, (which may not be connected to this site) but I don't think there's an app. Not on the App Store, anyway.

Here is a link where Admin has asked users about using an App.
As far as in Play Store, there is not one available.

..ok, I almost endorse it.

Better than the regular site's functionality.
@Nuno@Andrew

Would you please settle this question?

Is there or is there not an SW app?
Ladyred · 46-50, F
That is entirely up to you! (;
Firegod74 · 46-50, M
@Ladyred for it to be up to me I have to install it. I was hoping to avoid that if it sucks
Ladyred · 46-50, F
@Firegod74 what I mean is, it depends on how vulnerable you want to be. Sometimes we feel if we are vulnerable, we are automatically rejected! Not always the truth, sometimes we are vulnerable and find our tribe, our community, our family in some cases! (;

@swirlie The SW app was the downfall of this entire website

Where did you get this from? The app (on Androids) is just exactly like using the website on the browser.

@swirlie SW app were introduced to this website back in 2015

We launched Similar Worlds in 2016.
