    Default Habbox iPhone App

    I'm not sure weather this has ever been suggested or talked about before but I think that a mobile app for Apple products would be amazing. I will list why below and the extra benefits I fix it could being to Habbox. But first I will show you a image that a just created to show you an example of what the app could look like. It's very simple, I just wanted to show some features it could have.






    Title:

    I put the name Habbox Portable (HxP) because it would use portable devices (iPad, iPhone, iPod). Also I thought the name was good and related to the product. Also I thought that the title could link to the main nav page.

    Radio:

    I'm not sure if you can embed the Radio onto an App (I know that it would require internet access if you could). So if you could embed the radio (ShoutCast) it could play, or it could open habboxlive.com/iphone in Safari which already works on Apple products. This should benefit Habbox because people would know about the iPhone feature to play on the HxL website (I recently discovered this). People could listen on the go.

    Rare Values:

    I know that this would be really hard to do but if most (if not all) rare values could be recorded onto the App then it would be easier for people to find values when trading. I find it hard to open habbox.com/rares because it makes my PC lag and I end up losing out on good deals. Or it could just keep a record of basic rares and be updated once a week or month.

    Events:

    I think that this would be easy to do, all that needs to be put in is a calender with event dates. If you couldn't have it update automatically to daily events you could maybe change the title to Notices and only have big events like Jade's Rares Giveaway!

    Forum:

    I hate using the Forum on Safari and I just don't use it in till I can get access to my computer so if you could make it accessible by the app then that would be cool and easier to use. Or it could just link to habboxforum.com/forum. This would give users more option to using the forum.

    Even More:

    Even More could be the next nav page with minor things like Radio timetable, staff, dates, request line etc




    I'm only suggesting ideas to grow Habbox community, I know it would be hard but I think that most of us would use it. I would pay up to £1.49 for this app on the App Store if it only had half these features. The problem is, is it even possibly and does Habbox have the funds.

    If you don't like this idea then fair enough but I just wanted to help and I liked creating this post. Thanks for reading!

    PLEASE MOVE TO HABBOX FEEDBACK, POSTED IN WRONG FORUM!

    That's what I thought . In all fairness, everyone who works on this site volunteers to do it anyway (esp. coders/admins) and don't expect anything in return. But yeah making an app. would probably be harder and money needed etc.

    Yehh I know that they is a lot of ways of accessing Habbox but not in one place. It would be much easier and if Habbox ever did make their own app they would no what I think!

    iPhone application designing is pretty simple really. Google some of the 'basic user guides' to creating an application. Not a lot too it. The hardest part might be the graphic designing.

    P.s LOL "skimmed that part."

    A web app makes more sense to be honest.
