Kaytri is the first browser / reader specifically for forums. It is not a browser per say, as it's not hosting safari, or doing any rendering. It works by having intimate knowledge of the forum software out there, and gathering that information and presenting it to you in a very, very navigable way. In ways, it can be faster than on a standard browser.

Currently, it works only with vBulletin Forums. In the future more forum sites will be supported, like phpBB and Invision Powerboard, but vBulletin is by far the most popular forum software out there (including what this forum runs).



Features:

- Add bookmarks by entering the URL, or looking up the forum on the web, then optionally adding login information.
- Browse through all forums and threads with simple flicking of the fingers
- The essence of posts are captured and displayed in text, with smart substitution of emoticons. No more 3 foot signatures sucking up your precious real estate. Click the blue bar next to posts and view the original post in HTML including images if needed. Tap the text to toggle between a one liner preview mode and normal text mode.
- Post new threads and reply to threads, including quotations

Yeah that's the next forum software I'll be implementing in the next major version.

The full version is done; however this kind of app needs lots of testing though. There's a reason there's no forum reader in the app store now - it's not easy problem to solve. Testing on this forum for example revealed bugs I had to fix (it's heavily modded). So a beta testing period, the submission to the app store, and it'll be available

I should metion that beta testers that report a bug or give any decent feedback will get the final app free.
