I have an IPhone and have added OZZU to my home page. Is there any way you could create an apple-touch-icon.png? I just think it would look cool.

I never even heard about this until now. Just looked it up and understand how the iPod and Iphone look for it when placing a bookmark on the device. It normally does a screenshot of the page, but will use the icon instead if specified. I will try and get this done shortly.

Okay it is done, and I just tried it on my iPhone 4S and iPad and it worked for both! Please confirm it works for you too :)

Hmmm. I might have to reset something on my phone. It might be a caching issue?

Try deleting the bookmark, and then closing out your safari browser. Then go back to the site and try to bookmark it again and see if it updates for when you re-add it to your home screen.

Thanks BWM! Maybe someone should write up something about that for OZZU. I might put something together.

He's not wrong to ask though. It is well overdue.

It is actually on the list. A mobile version of Ozzu, as well as an actual APP. Don't hold your breath though, it will most likely be awhile.

I no longer have an iPhone, so it makes little difference to me. The site is still usable on the built in Safari app. Not as bad as some may think.

I have used Ozzu on with Safari on my iPhone as well as the iPad. It works, but it isn't the greatest for using on the phone. I think the most annoying part is I have to zoom in and out alot to get through everything like logging on. I think a mobile version will be the first step, and that will make things much better for all devices. An actual iPhone APP will be sometime after that.
