Suggestion: link to mobile app content instead of web app content if possible



Recommended Posts

Clicking on a BP post link from another post will open that as a web page request to the BP web app instead of the BP mobile app. This is kind of weird (and annoying?) for the post reader. It would be better if the mobile app could be a little smarter about keeping the user within the mobile app context when clicking on a link to another BP post, even if that link is initially directed at the web app. Maybe this is something the mobile app can "fix" during a post composition or post editing flow by analyzing the link as the post is being read and accepted by the system. If it is determined to point to another BP post, then translate to an internal linking uri that the mobile app will understand. Maybe it is implemented as a special WIKI tag, depending on what underlying authoring language BP uses when persisting a user post. Useful?

Great suggestion!! It annoys the crap out of me when I click on a link and it opens a browser instead of working natively within the app. I added this to our app's internal feature list, thanks!!

Also would be nice if you could remove irrelevant sections from app. I'm having bypass and don't need or want to see the other types of surgery forums.

Future app updates will respect forum permissions and only show you forums you're supposed to see.

Thanks for the suggestions!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
