So I posted this on the EUW Boards and someone recommended that I post it on NA too, so apologies in advance for the English (UK).

I'm not always at my PC, but I do use boards quite a bit, and I feel an app for it would be useful if that is possible?

Sometimes when using the boards through the internet browser on mobile, the replies and actual discussion will not load, just its title and a bunch of empty boxes. The votes also cannot be seen.

When I post on boards, sometimes I will be going out shortly after, and not coming back for a few hours, it would be useful to have an app that allowed me to see if anyone responded, have push notifications that alert me, so that I do not miss replies, etc. So that I can then respond immediately, instead of having to wait until I get home. Sometimes other questions arise on a discussion, which when answered bring up other questions, having an app means that there would be little waiting between these messages.

For example, if someone posted an idea for a new champ in Creations and Concepts, and you replied with a question, you could have a quick discussion such as: "how does that ability work?" "well the ability is a medium ranged skill shot that when hitting a champion stuns them" "how long does the stun last?" "the stun duration depends on the distance travelled with the stun from 3 - 45 seconds at it's first rank" "sounds good, do you not think that would be a bit over-powered" "maybe, but that is for riot to decide :P"

Instead of saying "how does that ability work?" to then wait 3 hours for a response, that you do not see until 5 hours later as you went out, for you then to ask another question, and so on and so fourth.

Having the app would also be useful for quick questions, instead of having to go on the internet to then log in again, to say a quick thing on the boards, and get more speedy responses as the boards would be easily accessible at all times., for example

"looking for a support for ranked team" "Sound's good, can I try playing with you in a normal first to see how our play styles interact" "yeah sure, I've sent you a friend request" "Cool, just logging in!"

"hey Rammus, do you want an app for the boards?"

Rammus : "OK."

See even Rammus wants it!

Please Riot could we have an app for the boards?

I run it on computer version, just so I can have the functionality.

Though I would love a Boards app.
