      For the best XDA experience on mobile, try our new app, XDA, built entirely in-house: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xda.labs.play

      *Please clear app data after installing v4.0.x if you encounter login issue (settings>apps>xda premium>clear data)*

      This app lets you access the world-famous XDA forums, plus reply to threads, add new ones, manage your PMs, and more!

      The premium XDA app is ad-free and has additional features versus the free XDA app.

      Please note: XDA Premium works best over WiFi or high speed cellular data. The first load might take the longest even if you're on WiFi.

      Great but buggy I am a new registered user and every time I want to post something a pop-up message prevents me to do it, it says something about spam and blablabla, but the thing that concers me is that it says I cant post outside links but and not attaching any link to my message :( it is just a normal message. Crazy app!!!
      Paul Leeming
      Many bugs Subscriptions don't show. Can't tell which threads are read or unread when I can get subscribed threads to work intermittently. Less information density. Pretty sad for an app designed for a community of devs...
      Mitchell Copeland
      Poor performance. App was perfect on the old layout before everything got updated. App now freezes for 5 seconds at a time, threads load slowly, all around performance and just disappeared now. Rolling back to when the app used to work.

      It works great... On newer devices On my old device it just tries loading a bunch, even froze my phone the one time. Would love to see it work well on both low and higher end devices

      Good improvements. +1star Good application to browse my favorite mobile dev forum. The few problem I have seens in previous version seems to be fixed. I will keep one eye on it. Sent from the app is there, I like it. I will have a look further, I just installed the last version today.

      Favorite I don't like the new update at all. Can't just go to a topic you keep a eye on then click back to the device instead have to go through all forums to find the device your interested in

      NEW UPDATE BLOWS CHUNKS The new update sucks balls. You cannot REPLY to a thread or a post!!!! How can I interact if this function is not possible come on XDA get your act together. Also subscribed threads are not showing up either. I've even clicked on a forum to subscribe and nothing shows up. I mean come on this is ridiculous we paid for this app it was great before the update. LIKE I SAID GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER!!!

      Utter garbage The fact that XDA developers can't provide what should be a beast of a mobile app, is the height of irony. This app is a shambles, even after the latest update, subscribed topics refuse to show.

      New Update Thank you, finally this app has been updated. I paid for this app years ago and patiently (not really) waiting for a UI overhaul and bug fixes and finally it seems like they came thru. Just the UI alone has won me over.

      New update is great! Since the jump to version 5 I've had a much better time with the app, still a little slow to load and doesn't seem to consistently open to my subscriptions but other than that it's great!

      Bye, Tapatalk I only really use Tapatalk these days with XDA, and Tapatalk constantly infuriates me as they seem to change the design of their app every week. This seems lightweight enough and responsive to be a good replacement.

      Used to work great. And it does again! (12/16/15)-Used to work great, now it don't work at all. I left it hanging on the start up screen for 10 minutes then I gave up since they obviously broke it. (Alcatel idol 3). (2/27/16)- still doesn't work guys, are you serious. (4/12/16)- well you guys finally put an effort in on this and not labs, and I'm happy with it thanks guys.

      Finally no more crashes! After several years of being the most buggy, crash prone, laggy app I've ever used, they overhauled everything and it's working great the past few days consistently. It's amazing!

      Sub par Since last update, all subscriptions are not coming up, not that it worked correctly before either. Threads or topics. Cleared data and cache. Amazed at how poorly this app has been. A paid app for a forum of phone developers.......oh well.

      good but not great although i like the new look of the app, i miss the "favorites" tab and a custom tabs option so i could manually choose which tabs i want to be shown in the app... also, some better separation of read/unread threads/posts would be nicer (i.e. unread - orange & bold, read - gray & normal)

      Would it be THAT hard to allow searching for a certain device thread? Example, on the website I click search, type "no" and by that time it is suggesting the Att Galaxy Note 4 already! I've been on the app 10 minutes... Searching there only returns posts, not form or thread titles. Even worse, the forum sections (hundreds) are jumbled in no apparent order, so finding the category for my note4 att version is taking forever! Try this: have the app lookup the the model I am using, suggest that categoey. So far, website is much better... I keep trying this anually... Never change
