Default Android App

First of all I want to say thank you to the creators of NeuroTalk and the moderators for such a wonderful support group forum. It's been a great source of help, information and support during my time of need.

I just wanted to suggest creating an app for Android for us to be able to easily access all the forums from our phones. I'm currently recovering from a brain injury and using the computer causes problems for me...so I usually access the site from my phone. However, its difficult at times to click on things using the touch screen, lol.

Also, is there a mobile version of the forums I could use in the meantime?

That's all, thanks!

What happened: I was randomly assaulted from behind in June of 2011. I was knocked unconscious for an unknown amount of time (less than 30 minutes) and have no memory of the event. CT scan showed contusion and hematoma of the left frontal lobe. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome in September 2011. Currently have Medicaid and SSI.

Current symptoms: Brain fog, anxiety, panic attacks, memory issues, confusion, problems with spontaneity, sensitive to loud noises, trouble thinking, problems with producing speech, spacing out, word finding difficulties, tinnitus in both ears, random tingling in different parts of my head and many other things that I can't explain. I'm very easily overloaded which makes it nearly impossible to watch TV or use the computer.

If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all OK.
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these.

I don't know who actually makes the Android apps, but maybe locate & contact them about making a more user friendly interface for forums users.

This is the only format we have that I know of, I can imagine it is tricky on a phone.

If anyone knows more about the subject , I hope they post also.

How about an APP specifically for PCS sufferers to help with organizing, keeping notes, doctors appointments, weather reports to screen too bright days for us, help us find the hundreds of things I misplace everyday. I agree that monitor use causes problems, I'm sitting here typing with sun glasses on.

I'm sure there are organizer apps available for Androids.

Here are a few links to help you find something that might help.

monitor /screen brightness-
If you scroll down the the bottom of the pages here at NT, you'll see a drop down menu for changing the "skin' or "theme" of the forum on the lower left.

You may have to be on the Main index page of NT for the settings to change/save - it can also be set in your user cp options at the bottom of that page .

I also darken my monitor settings a bit.
