i may be the last to know, but I discovered something new today.  

If I tap on the address line up there ^^^ then pull down the menu I get "request desktop site".  Now I have the hover feature and access to all the emoticons.  

Still think I need to go to chrome to post photos etc but it's better than nothing.

I posted that small photo in a previous post using safari.

 

When the reply box first opened up some of the little icon boxes were blank, but once I clicked on them the icons appeared.

Then there are phablets amber...... I don't use my phone much for internet stuff since I got my ipad. I do have whatsapp on the mobile so people can msg me and send photos through that via wifi. Especially good for overseas contacts, it doesn't cost anything, as would sending a text or mms.

Yes...phablets 🙂 I have a Galaxy tab with SIM capability, too. Use it for reading.

Lurker, iPads and eBay are an interesting combination but it is doable 🙂 I don't even have a PC anymore.

I think it was you amber who first put me onto chrome to post pics etc?  I have found it be a bit glitchy sometimes.  I think this safari solution might be a bit better.

hmmmm

Might have been me...I was getting frustrated at only being able to post piccies as attachments here.

Both can be a bit glitchy, it can be eBay at fault too. Deb was asking about posting pics in the My Day thread a while back, put up the Safari desktop site access in there somewhere from memory, but not everyone goes in there 😉

I have been getting the odd message that my pics are too big to post, too. To fix that I go back into Photos, bring it up again, then take a screenshot, edit it to remove everything except the original pic then use that one...sigh.
