Pop up on phone

[DrHenley]

Now, every time I go to DPF on my phone I'm getting a pop up window asking me to install the app.
Only option is "Install".
This is VERY bad form! At the minimum there should be a decline button, and better a "don't ask again" button.

I'm not getting a Pop Up as of yet. . . Really hope I don't.

Do you have the save to Homepage, or save App ever done where you have an icon to come directly to the forum? Save app would just be the Icon link to the forum. And what type of phone do you have?

 

[DrHenley]

Android phone (Android 11). I have a link directly to "New Posts" on my Chrome home page.
It also happens EVERY TIME I hit the "New Posts" link at the top of any page.

Now it is popping up on every page. Sooooo annoying!

I was told by my carrier that I had to upgrade my phone when I had the Android 11. It was no longer going to be recognized after early this year and I want to say it was Feb of 2022. Not sure if this helps you.

It is the DPF website that is doing it, not my phone or my carrier.

Can you not Block the web site , personally I have never tried to block one

I have just tried it with my Android phone. But I went through the icon I had saved to homepage, which could be called save app.
Are you just going to the Chrome app on your phone and then posting in the forum that way? Do you not want the icon (app) on your phone home page?

 

[DrHenley]

Do you not want the icon (app) on your phone home page?

I'd like to decide for myself what icons go on my phone's home screen and what apps to install.

DPF has an app now? I didn't know this, although I've never visited this site on my phone, usually just my laptop.

You will have to make the decision. It is not added without you making it happen.

I switched to a "de-googled" phone over a year ago and haven't had any issues. My son says the same thing.

It runs a copy of Linux which you can download, compile, and install -- if you want to make any changes.

I got it from Rob Braxman. It cost about $300. I use a monthly plan which is about $35.

But then, I also don't live on my phone.
