Blizzard Forum App

Since we need something new to complain about every day, let me kick it off today. What’s going on with the Blizzard forum app? You asked me to download it, and it’s just a built-in browser for the forum with no extra features—and it looks terrible! Hard to believe a billion-dollar company can’t even get the endgame (forums) right.

Post from the app.

I still haven’t found the app because I never got a pop up for it. It’s not the one embedded in the Bnet app is it? Is it a completely separate app?

Yes, it is separate. I got the pop up while browsing the forum this morning. The logo is Diablo IV.

Not “we” more like they.

Now I need to find the app so in can test it for myself. To the App Store! What’s the name of the app btw?

Diablo IV. It was a direct link from this forum. I can’t find it in the app store.

Damn, I was trying to find it through the App Store. Are you using an android or apple by chance? Trying to find a button on the forums for the app or a link or something lol.

Search Battle.net in the App Store

Gives me a list as follows:

Diablo Immortal
Battle.net App (which I have that includes the authenticator)
Hearthstone
The Battle Cats (no idea why)
Warcraft Rumble
D3 Buddy for Diablo 3
D2 Pal Pro for Diablo 2

And then goes into random other apps of varying degrees. I’m not finding a Forum App at all. Now the Battle.net App itself has an option to go into the forums, but it looks identical to opening up a browser on the phone.

Android. It’s a seperate app from Battle.net.

That may be why, I’m on apple, so it makes more sense now.

You are not missing much. It’s basically a browser but I just found out there are tabs for patch note and store. :grinning:

Forums are hosted by a 3rd party company OP, they just created an app with the browser defaulting to it. If you want to complain, it’s by a company called Discourse

thanks for this. reading their .pdfs

I used to have it but deleted it so can’t find the link to post it here

It’s not Blizzard’s app. The entire forum system is done by a company called Discourse. They do forum management for many different companies.

I’ve actually clicked on it, and it does nothing for me (Android).

Yea I’ll take ownership for that. I have my default tracking set to normal, so unless it’s a reply to what I said, or someone @‘s me I don’t see updates to posts. I probably replied, got busy doing other things, came back and the post was beyond the first 20 or so topics.

Sorry :pray:
