Hello,

Our community forum has become a good platform where lots of problems are getting solved every day. Almost every day I spend some time to look for an activity happening around the forum, and I literally learned so many things from reading it, replying it.

However, I was wondering if we can have mobile app design for our community forum. I know we can access our forum site on Mobile since it’s responsive, But using a mobile app is different and quite handy. I hope you will with agree with me.

Regards,

Sachin Mahawar

Team,

Not sure if this request already raised, but is there a plan to create a Mobile App for OutSystems Forum? It will be really helpful to review and provide comments even when you are not in front of your PC.

Doubt it myself, because it works (not 100%) already on mobile...

Hi J.

You mean just use it like a web application on mobile browser right?

I was thinking more towards a native mobile app.

Yes, understand what you mean.

But why make an app for an already working mobile website?

Every website can work on mobile in the browser, then there is no need of Mobile Apps. But still people go specifically for Mobile Native Apps, that's the answers.

Merged this idea with 'Outsytems application forum' (created on 22 Oct 2018 07:58:47 by Diogo Coelho)

Hi people, 

I think it would be a good idea and since we are also app producers, why not develop a mobile application for the forum? I think it would be useful to have a mobile application that allows reading post, reply, etc. We could start with the forum and then extend it to other features. Nowadays I have to access the browser on the mobile phone if I want to do something.

Best Regards

Merged this idea with 'Outsystems community android/ios application' (created on 01 Nov 2018 04:53:34 by Tushar Panpaliya)

Mobile applications for to access community forum/ideas etc. would be helpful I guess.  Current if someone comments on a post of mine , I receive  an email notifying that. Then I have to click on the link and then login to reply. A mobile app would just make life easier in this scenario I believe.

Do we have an Outsystems Mobile App?


If not I think it will be handy to have a mobile app which helps users to be more active in community and forums.

Native mobile application for Android and IOS to manage and view users outsystems account.


Covering features like 

  1. Jobs
  2. Forums 
  3. Ideas
  4. members
  5. badges


A Native mobile application can be a simple go to solution for all of users queries related to his/her outsystems acount. 

A reactive application works but features like notifications and realtime updates on technology would be something amazing to have.


Example Like - StackOverflow, Github

Outsystems could consider creating a mobile application Forums for Android and iOS users, with push notifications so that the users could ask or answer queries from other users on the go.

Hi there,

I think it would be good to develop a mobile application for the community, with access to content, a forum, and others. Easier to navigate.

Kind regards

Merged this idea with 'There should be a mobile app for Outsystems Community' (created on 28 Oct 2022 06:10:47 by Mohd shuaib)

Hi folks,

I think there should be a mobile app (android and iOS) for the Outsystems Community.

With the app, we would be able to access community discussions (questions, answers, new threads) from anywhere.


I agree with you Mohd. A app for at least the forum community could be very useful.

I hope there should be one App for the forum Like Facebook. So we can get anytime active on a forum to help people and also they can able to get the solution in their Mobile and can able to check it then and there.


I hope it will be very useful.

Hi Sudip.


We are not planning to implement this idea in the near future. Because of this, I’m marking this idea as “not right now”. Although we are going to keep an eye on the engagement and popularity of this idea.


Nonetheless, thank you very much for your idea, and keep it coming. Thanks!


Cheers

Merged this idea with 'Mobile App for Forums' (created on 19 Jun 2024 14:37:07 by Prasanna Laad)

A mobile (android and iOS) application for Forums.

  • This will enhance the accessibility to go over the posts and to answer questions on the go.
  • Personalized Notifications for the posts posted, liked or commented (instead of email which is current scenario) will help in keeping the post live and collaborative resulting in more engagement.

    What more can be done? 
    Learning in the app, Offline saving of course videos, curating relevant documentation etc., we can even introduce Ideas section on the app (easy scrolling through the content getting new ideas and more visibility to OutSystems world)

    This has endless possibilities, but yeah, the main idea is for Forums
Merged this idea with 'Create a dedicated mobile app specifically for the official OutSystems website' (created on 15 Apr 2025 10:03:53 by Iheb Maatali Riahi)

Create a dedicated mobile app specifically for the official OutSystems website. The idea is to use a WebView to make it easier and faster for users to access all the platform’s information 

The advantage here is improving accessibility and convenience for users, especially those who prefer mobile access. This can help support and grow the community by making information more readily available anytime, anywhere 

Merged this idea with 'Mobile interface Application to handle Out Systems Community.' (created on 08 Oct 2021 06:20:44 by Deepa Tiwari)

I would suggest a Mobile interface Application to handle Out Systems Community.  So that we can more easily access the application even we are on mobile and can also be more active with the forum.

It will be more flexible and manageable once profile over mobile and also participating actively with the community activities.   

Did you ever try to use the community pages on your mobile browser?. It works great most of my OutSystems moderator work info via my mobile.

Hi @Daniël Kuhlmann thankyou for the reply . 

Yes i have an exposer with the community pages on mobile browser and yes it works great!.

But that we are accessing on browser, my suggestion was to have an application for the community pages, that we can install and use from our mobiles. Instead of using the browser we can have our own app for the community. We can update our profiles comments , have notification etc handy.


seria interessante um aplicativo móvel nativo, integrado ao site

There should be Mobile Application for Forums Questions and Answers. 
To view it we have to log in to the community on the web and go through it. 

i upvoted this idea.  

I would be happy to loing and use the website of the forum on my mobile (and I often do) but it is such a bad user experience right now.

Merged this idea with 'OutSystems Community Mobile Application' (created on 13 Oct 2025 05:52:14 by Sherif El-Habibi)

The OutSystems Community is already available on the web, but having a mobile app version would make it much more convenient and engaging for users.

The app could allow us to:

  • Browse forums, post replies, and share ideas easily
  • Edit Personal Profile
  • Receive notifications directly within the app instead of by email

While the web experience works well, a dedicated mobile app would help community members stay connected and engaged anywhere, without relying on email updates in case of replies and so on.


Please search first if someone posted your idea before, I will need to merge yours into the one posted in 2017.
