a widget i think that could be amazing

Something like feedly:

(is old screenshot, but u can see the widget with TPU news)

Works also on my Android-X86 ICS RC1 on 1000H (1024x600)
 
Now I never have a reason not to be on TPU even when fullscreen gaming :roll:
 
What about focusing on the mobile web version, so everyone can enjoy it? I'm the only one with a wm 2005 smartphone?
I can't afford a new hypermega-cool android phone : (
 
Very cool, installing now

Keep your WM phone and get an android tablet, trust me, at 7 inch screen I find it so sweet to read the news while taking a cup of coffee in a center. With such a big screen is very comfortable

I've got this one for less that 140€, brand new.

The free games, free pocket references to [whatever you study], superb selection of applications of any type, it will pay itself, and I'm actually surprised. Don't want to encourage anyone to buy something they won't need, but I found it very useful and I just didn't want an android phone. no way. I'm still on symbian phone.

Just keep in mind that if for some reason you decide to go for an android tablet you have to take some things into consideration (like cpu, amount of ram, screen type, etc)
 
Nice, case mod section added
 
Absolutely Perfect on my HTC Sensation & already got in shit from the boss today for "using my phone to much"
 
So when are you guys releasing one for BlackBerry users? :)
 
yes a widget, was about to suggest it myself, would be awesome.

but then again, a rss widget with tpu's rss feed is also pretty sweet, which i got already
 
news item widget would be amazing, as has already been mentioned. I'd love to see some optimisation for tablets if possible, so it takes advantage of 1280x800 @ 10" , as it definitely has a phone app feel.

Also maybe call it Techpowerapp?
 
love it

Yap just downloaded the app on my Samsung Galaxy S2, love it :)
Keep on improving it :)
PS: the first review i read using the app is the review on AMD Radeon 7850 & 7870 :))
 
Works great on my LG Optimus as well :)
 
I was about to comment again with the suggestion about being able to get the URL for a thread or the ability to share easier. Apparently my fat fingers kept hitting thanks on some posts while trying to click on the page numbers.

Edit: Accidentally sent the post while trying to edit a mistake. Still a great app... EVO 3D

any concrete ideas how that should look like ?

well TBH on my android tab I just use the normal web version because that itself is almost perfect for a 10" screen, so I guess what Im saying is a layout more like the normal web version... the problem is the apps always run smoother than a web layout, so something that is almost the same as the web layout but in app form.

I love having the most recent reviews at the top, and each news item has a large picture and a link straight to discussing it in the forums. its the familiarity I'm looking for on the tablet. this is porbably most relevant to the news section alone.

thankyou so much for taking this onboard, and I'll just add that the web version does fit the screen and resolution well, but its the lack of optimisation that gets me, when I scroll through items the screen tears and the writing is maybe just a tad too small...

thanks again W1z!

I find it fine on my own tablet, but its 7" not 10"

I actually found it flawless, with a lot of room for extra functionality.
Of course the widget with notifications would be a plus. what about notifying about upcoming news also.
 
Great app, works like charm on my Galaxy S II. Thanks techPowerUp! :toast:
 
lol cool, case mod gallery ^^
 
I installed it yesterday, working fine on an HTC Desire, CM7.1 (Android 2.3.7).

Thanks! I really like the reviews, move from left to right to change page. Great APP!!!
 
other thing that would be cool was if you made a button where when pushed, activated your camera and you could upload pics directly

interface with the techpowerup.org
give you link or ability to just embed in the post
would be awesome




but idk if this is a insanely hard wish.
