Sciencemadness App
Would it be possible to make an ios and android app for sciencemadness?
It would include all features of sciencemadness, but in an app.
I do not know much about designing apps, so I would need help.
Please leave ideas and what you think of this below.

Not sure how many members would want their identity,
phone number and location tethered to their activities on this forum!

It wouldn't necessarily need to be tethered to the number and location.

Technically it would be. A phone's IP would be bound to the site, making it that much easier to trace the person, though in practical terms, it would
make no difference. Over all, such an app may be used by many (I don't have either type of device though), but it would have trouble clearing ios' app
registration process, because of this site's content.
I know a bit about programming, and I figure it wouldn't be too terrible to make, but it would require at least 100 hours of work, preferably by more
than one person. And it'd be simplistic. And require probably more work by provolone than he'd wish to put into such a project.

I could probably throw an Android app together in a few weeks (depending on exactly what we wanted it to do). However, I have no experience with
iPhone programming.
However, what (more than browsing the forum) is necessary?

Right. I have a 2008 Nokia N800 tablet, but I can browse the forums because I have internet access, an app isn't necessary.

But an app would be cool. It probably isn't worth the trouble to make it though.
I would definitely use the app if it was made. I use my phone quite a bit on this site. [This was typed on it]

There is an app that allows you to use any forum. The only thing is that the forum owner (Polverone) needs to install some sort of client on the
server end I believe. Haven't read much into it because Scimad works fine on my device (iPhone 5s)
