I prefer the desktop layout on my phone because it displays charts that people make much better and the only gripe is that if I go to make a post and get side tracked before I click the submit button,it reverts back to the mobile layout and I lose the whole post.

On the mobile website, you can go into the Options page and set it to never return to the mobile website (or delay much longer before returning).

maybe you can default this..
Then nobody would ever get to the mobile website -- that kind of defeats the point of having a mobile website. There is an option for you to "turn it off" if you don't want to see it. That seems reasonable to me.

The reason I'm requesting feedback for the mobile website is to involve the people using it (YOU) in the decision-making process for what to add next. If someone at my favorite website asked me what to add next I would gladly provide some comments about what I'd like to see. I would not be asking them how to get rid of their website!
I'm glad to offer the opportunity to everyone to be involved in future development -- or you can just leave it up to me to guess what you'd like.

I specifically turn off the mobile website to only use the desktop website. I like to read the most recent posts in the pick 3 forum for my state. Despite turning off mobile, when I go into the state post on the pick 3 forum, ie "Ohio: 5/1 - 5/31/2018" I can successfully enter the thread; however, the site switches back to mobile. When I switch it back to desktop, I remain in the thread, on the first page. When I select last page, the site switches back to mobile. When I turn off mobile again, I am taken to the first page of the thread in the desktop format. This becomes a repeat cycle at this point. If I select last page, the takes me to the last page but in mobile format, AND if I stay in mobile format and begin to scroll, the thread shows the very first (or earliest) posts in the thread instead of the most recent (or latest) posts.
I hope that made sense. Feel free to ask me to clarify.

Under results/daily numbers games/ go to calendar/ go to a prior date/ display the daily numbers for that day/ then in my case select Maryland for eg. in the daily numbers grid to display the sequential list of draws day/night dates......it always goes back to the present day not to the prior date list in the calendar where I would like to view the list of sequential draws, to view that prior date you have to scroll back to it....This would be good on the desktop side also. When I am at my desktop I use a spreadsheet, so no problemo, just when I be out and about with my android it would be nice>>>>>>>>>>
Thank You Very Mucho for all the great stuff you do!!!!

If I used it in a mobile applications I would like to be able to use P3 systems on the go. It would be nice to pull up a system and use it when I'm filling out the slips at the store. I usually do my knockout or mirror adjacent on the back of the playslip. This would make it great for the lottery player.

Hi All,
As many of you know, in March we released a big update to the Lottery Post mobile website — the website that you see when using Lottery Post on a phone — and now a second round of updates to it have been completed.
So now I'm looking ahead to future development, and I'd like to incorporate your feedback into what gets implemented next.
What additional features and/or content would you like to see on the mobile website in the future? For example:
Is there something that would be particularly useful on the phone website (as opposed to the desktop website)?
Is there something in another app or website you use on your phone that you'd like to see here?
Is there something on the desktop website that you'd like to see also on the mobile website? (Why?)
Any other suggestions for the mobile website?
Also, there are some people who specifically turn off the mobile website, so that they only use the desktop website. If you're one of these people, have you tried the new mobile site? If so, what is still missing? If you're still going back to the desktop website, what does the mobile website need to do differently that would make you want to stay there?
This is your chance to make your opinion heard about using Lottery Post on a phone, so don't be shy — but if you don't like something please explain why, and what could be done differently that you would like.
(Please avoid anything non-helpful such as, "I hate using a phone.")
If you'd rather pass along your feedback privately, you can also feel free to send me a PM.
Thanks for your feedback!
Todd,
Thank you for seeking feedback. I did notice the addition of the mobile friendly website on LP. For younger folks, who require rapid communication in the age of face-book, and mobile friendly apps that are focused on specific topics to meet their needs, this is a welcome addition. For older folks like myself, who have an old phone primarily for receiving calls, an occasional text here and there, I don’t use the phone's full capabilities, which frustrates my child. For me, the mobile website is okay, it is focused, but does not give the full picture of the products offered on the LP website like the desktop version. It is very focused on singular subjects.
I am creature of habit, and tend to gravitate towards the desktop version, on my computer, not because I am not willing to change to using the phone, but because it is more familiar and is more like reading a newspaper, where I see everything I need on one click; can toggle between sites; open them easily and get an overall view of trending subjects/discussions. On the mobile version, when using the phone, scrolling back and forth to me is a headache from last post to whatever. It discombobulates me. Although, I must say that I do appreciate LP's effort in accommodating the generational gaps, specifically the older curmudgeons, and additional looking forward to use technological advances in enhancing its products.
This is my 2 cents worth.
My other issue is how will LP deal with the SC ruling on online sports gambling? Will you discuss this subject.
