Should There Be A Halo Waypoint App?

So this app created by 343 Industries obviously would be available for iOS, android, and windows if needed and would basically have everything from the website and you could get notifications for forum updates, and other news updates. Go ahead and suggest other features you would like. The biggest reason I really want this is because I use my smartphone for the internet more than anything else I have. What do you think? 343 listen please!

Honestly, I don’t think an app is needed. The website is about 95% mobile ready - it’s responsive, easy to browse and the only issues that don’t get it to 100% are with the TinyMCE rich text editor: unable to quote properly, can’t create links, can’t use source code view, problems pasting in iOS and Android. I think if the team worked out those bugs and implemented some kind of fotification system into the site, it would work fine. We have the Halo Channel app in development for Windows Phone devices though, so maybe that might bring a few extras with it

I want a App

So I can go to school and look Hey a new Update for MCC or Halo 5

For the convenience

Wouldn’t it be just as easy to visit the site and tap ‘Blogs’ ?

I can understand why you say it doesn’t need an app because the site itself is mobile friendly, but the only reason why I thought it would be a good idea is because, viewing a forum on a browser drains a phone’s battery quicker. Nobody wants that do they?

App For Android 343i, I want an app that is constant sec by sec every match details listed without even pressing or clicking the refresh button every single time, easily accessible app that does everything besides taking us to the site like a browser :confused: slim looking, Javascripted and well made Halowaypoint App Similarly like the one from Halo 4 for both IOS and Android, 83% of the Halo community wants it :slight_smile: can’t Judge that.

Ya so i can -Yoink- about mcc faster

Can’t say I’ve ever noticed my battery draining faster using the browser than an app (lumia 920). I’d guess that would be more down to how each phone OS handles rendering on their browsers. I wouldn’t say that happens with all phones.

Yes I would love an app to send my certain notifications (inbox, someone posted on your thread, someone quoted you, etc.)

Hear our cries 343! We want an aaaaappppp!!! Please

An app would certainly be more convenient, and I’m sure plenty of people would use it! Just make sure you cover all bases (Windows phone, Android, iOS) to make it as effective as possible :slight_smile:

I agree, an app would be awesome, but also, instead of just an app, have it unlock things for your MCC or Halo 5 items. Like what had happened with the Original Waypoint. I enjoyed the original Halo Waypoint because I could see all of my Halo Career in the one place. At least if have it so that once you unlock certain ‘classified’ items, unlocking more stories from the Halo Universe.

Even if you could unlock different armour pieces and create your own armour layouts for halo 2 anniversary, Halo 3 and Halo 4 for MCC. This would make playing Halo MCC feel more… like Halo in a way, well atleast personally, that’s what made my halo experience in the first place.

Yes please !
