TalkBass App To Be REMOVED/DELETED [security concerns]

Sorry if this has been mentioned, but on the iPhone or iPad, go to your watched threads in Safari, tap the "share" button at the bottom (box with arrow pointing up), then tap "Add to Home Screen". Name it what you want, then boom. Instant access to your watched threads from the home screen, or whatever folder you want to put it in.

Android users can do the same, using the chrome browser. You simply tap the three dots up in the right hand corner and near the bottom of the menu list, you'll see "Add to home screen."

I still preferred having a dedicated app for TB but at least there are options. *shrug*
 
Yep. I guess its a pushbullet issue, then? I've never used the service before (and I'm not the most computer savvy) but it seems there's an option for sites to create channels for themselves... Will TB be considering creating one?

Is your device set up with pushbullet? Can you log into pushbullet.com and send yourself a push notification to test?
 
So did I miss a notice about Pushbullet no longer being an option for an external account to get notifications with on here? I noticed I don't really ever get the notifications when I should and I don't see it as an option anymore in external accounts. Was this intentional? Should everyone on PB move over to using pushover instead?

Let me investigate

Yeah, it looks like it's Pushover as the only option now (lack of support from pushbullet addon developer). I'll get an an announcement posted asap.

You have to actually open a watched thread after receiving a notification...otherwise further notifications will not be sent for that thread.
