Worked until newest update on my phone. S7 edge was perfect. Now I'm uninstalling and reinstalling to try it. But will fix review if it works. Still UP EXCEPTION SERVER FAILED ISSUE. FIX ASAP. Was worth paying for but now it's worth never using might as well delete it.

This app has to be the worst featured app I've ever used from a "brand". You can see posts and reply to them, but that's it. * No image or video add * No capability to Like or Thank * No emoticons * No profile management And this is from a company that specializes in forums! Shocked at their naivety, as this will frustrate the majority of Android customers. The only good thing after a couple of days use, it's at least, been stable

Having the same error as everyone else with the IO server thing for awhile now. Wish the rx7 club would make their own forum app so we weren't forced to use the only forum app for the fourms

It was working fine. Then my android updated and now all I get is: "Server error. IOException Chain validation failed." Uninstalled and then loaded again and it sill gives the same error.

Update: heard back from the Digital Marketing Coordinator, and it's being worked on. New fixed version should appear shortly. Will update after it does. It used to work. As everyone below noted, it no longer does. Since the error report function in the app gives the same error, meaning you can't report the error, I tried reporting it by email. I carefully documented the problem. I just got a response from Internet Brands Digital Marketing Coordinator. She told me to update to the version we all have installed, and completely ignored my error report that stated clearly that I *am* running the latest version. I reported this back to her, and noted the number of failure reports here. Be interesting if any reasonable response is forthcoming. Meanwhile, it's still broken. Kaput. Passed on. Nailed to the bloody perch. Deceased. A former app.

"IO exception error" keeps lingering. Reinstall doesn't help. This was a neat app, but now it's useless

Useless can't even open !! F150 forms uninstalling! just using the web browser to get to f150forms much easier

This app is garbage, but IB refuses to use a third party app, so we just have to live with it. Doesn't currently work with Android 7.0. Hopefully Jose or Nolan can fix it soon.

No longer works after android 7.0 update. Looks like it's been going on for a few months with no fix.

Great for just browsing topics, but one you yet and go past the first page in a thread it like to just copy random posts from that thread and throw them in any order and make it confusing as hell.

Ads are awful. Top and bottom of every page, and they scroll with you! Extremely annoying. This needs to be fixed. You don't even offer an option to get rid of these ads. I would pay a FEW bucks for this app if it was more user friendly and didn't contain ads.

D70%
by D####:

I'm uninstalling since for some reason the developer has decided not to fix the I/O Exception for Android 7.0.

Q70%
by Q####:

Same problem as everyone else. Wish i never updated my S7 Edge, now the app does not work at all. Can't even send in the report to the app.

This app would have been wonderful in 1995 - you know, before Cell Phone apps existed. I'm a paid member of one of the forums "supported" by this app, and it's pretty shameful. *Update - now with intrusive ads!*

App is currently useless. Nexus 5X running the latest, plain-jane version of Android 7. All I get when I attempt to add forums is "Server error. IOException Chain validation failed."

As others have stated I'm getting the I/O exception message running 7.0. This worked fine on my 6.1. Loved this app when it was usable.

4 months ago I uninstalled because of the ioexception error on 7.0 ... It still isn't fixed

X70%
by X####:

App is inferior as compared to both interfacing from the web directly as well as the old app. As a company purchased by KKR for over $1B, this is inexcusable.

B70%
by B####:

As the title says. Needs major issues addressed. We have even posted a thread for all the problems the members are having and they are being ignored. Please fix and update.

S70%
by S####:

Frequently crashes. Also takes me to play store unbidden and shows me other crap apps I don't want. Easier to use forums via chrome browser.

S70%
by S####:

When my phone updated to Android version 7.0 this app stopped working. Server error. IOException Chain validation failed. Any timeline when this will be aval for Android 7.0??? Still no reply! I hope clients don't pay you money for your services....
