I take it that the App is Android only as I can’t see anything in the Apple App Store? Jim

how do you switch them off ??
There is no app, to speak off. If you follow the link Jim posted in #7 it explains how to do it. Basically if you use Safari on your iOs device (iphone, iPad etc.) ope it and go to go to the motorhomefun home page, then at the bottom of the screen click on the square with an arrow pointing upwards. Scroll down until you see Add to Home Screen press the + sign and you are done. The 'app' (PWA) will appear as an app on your screen. I don't have Android, but I suspect it's a similar process.Now this is the first time I have heard of a fun app.
When folks have asked about it before Jim has always said there isn't an app it's just a link to a website that you put on your screen.
So now have we actually got an app or not.?

Now this is the first time I have heard of a fun app.
Wasn't criticiseing Jim I'm quite happy as it is, just that I thought there wasn't an app as such, in fact I don't see that it makes any difference anyway.We configured the forum for Web app functionality a couple of years ago, but that was only on Android. Apple doesn't like web apps because they cannot earn money from them. Last year, we finally got the ability to use web apps on apple. Only for apple to then remove it from the EU over a privacy spat. Luckily, not being in the EU, we kept the ability to deploy web apps.
Web apps can now be added to the app stores, but its just as easy to install them without. See this help file.
The only way I could enable them was to 'hard' press the Motorhome Fun icon, click the (!) button & enable permissions there. As it's not an app, I can't do it through my normal phone settings & it didn't work via 'preferences'.
