I came here to ask the same questions. I see a few people already worried that we haven´t seen an update in so long. 


Can we get at least a rough schedule when to expect it? 


Some team member here said we might see something at the end of the year (2016 that is). Maybe we can get some more details?


I think it would reassure a lot of people here. 


Thank you and I am convinced we are all excited about the new update :)

Slowly I have the feeling that oxwall stands still and skadate becomes the main concept.


At github you also see no major updates ...

There is activity on Github. We will all have to wait to see what the next release will have. There is no talk about when that will be, but I'm sure everyone will be happy to wait so the team can make sure that everything is a go before they release the next update.

apps? unuseful... Good mobile version is a lot better. 


3rd party developers can modify the mobile version via plugins. Not mobile apps.

App!! That would be terrific.

A good mobile version with all pages (including groups) and all functionalities would be even better!

I'm getting all excited now.

why an app?


it cost a lot off time, 3rd party plugins will never work 


make the default one responsive with default responsive plugins like blogs e.d.

put emoticons by default


and then you will see how hard oxwall will grow.


app is useless time...

I agree. Responsive solution is much more important than an app. Please look at your own roadmap and make one step by step. We need an absolutely responsive system, cms support, native video upload, etc.

In my opinion BOTH responsive solution and APPs are importen. 75% of my users are only use my apps and never care one time to try connect to my website.

I thinking many times why did i buy a website i could only buy some very nice apps and could bee very successfull on that at least 75% successfull 

I sorry to say it but i feel majority is only download apps today and that part we can not forget about it would bee a dead end in future.


And i think it depends very much what geo targeting you have and what age you target and what gender. 


if i look at my own website i see girls prefer only to use mobile phones and man like to use laptops and if i look at my girlsfriend she never want to touch her laptop even that i give here one in present she never use it ....she only use mobile phone and here apps and complain about my bad apps that have many things missing....

You are totally sold with only a responsive website and no apps this days and i can say that with many people agree with me. You need reach all people if you want success and you can not force them to use a webbrowser if they prefer use apps...we need follow them even if we not want it and love our desktop software and responsive theme....i no like apps but if i want success i need to have it


oxwall and skdate should have responsive solutions and apps that is the future and i hope this team have already see this in all they analyze tools they have .....


it is very much interesting what they effort will bee on this update they bring in 2017....i can not wait to see and i hope it comes very soon we have wait long time now and been patient

Please don't misunderstand me. App is very important but we all know that oxwall and skadate need much time for every new development. And we have much problems with 3rd party plugins. Mostly they are not frequently supported.
So I'm sure it is too early for an app. We need so much basic functions in core before making the new step. By the way, skadate has apps but they are not worth their money.

Oxwall is dead, or they dont care.

How many people work on the new update?


Look to the uservoice, people like to have default emoticons. I cant find software wich one dont have this by default. But, hey! you can buy it! WTF? Buy it? for simple emoticons? Nope.


We have emoji! it works? nope!

my host afvise me php 7. it works? nope, not good enough!


my visitors use 80% a mobile device.

it works? yes, Timeline, photos en forum work. the rest like blogs? nope.


so common, dont spend so much time at this useless app or a 2nd mobile theme.


if oxwall care about users, they make the default theme responsive (not only menu. Realy?)

put some easy emoticons, or let emoji work....


easy as that, and that is wat people like! for the last 2 years.

OxWall is a great software, developed very clean and has a lot of functions other software dont. 

The whishlists of so many people is big, the most even does not make sense or is just impossible to realize, like "native app with all plungins".

What I am more worry about.I´ve bought plugins for over 200$ and 3 are with some major bugs. The developer just doesn´t react. They dont answer on PNs, dont answere on threads.


What is a software without a helping commuity, where even there is no support/bugfixing for bought plugins?


BTW: What is skadate? Is this a pro version of oxwall? I Would buy this, but i dont want to have a dating-site

Do you know how hard it is for some to update their script??? I can't imagine keep updating my script every time they fix some small bug. They should release update only when there is some kick-ass upgrade or security issue.
