Radar Blog

We're extremely excited about the phenomenal growth we've been seeing on Radar lately. Thanks to everyone for your continued use and support. With our fast growth we've also been having some growing pains, and you may have noticed some issues.

In particular, many of you have been reporting intermittent errors and timeouts that have been occurring over the past few days. We've also received reports from some users who are having trouble logging in from the mobile app.

Please bear with us while our engineers work through these issues. During the next few days we'll be working on fixing the more immediate problems, and that should enable you to log in and use the site more reliably. There'll be more work to do after that to help us keep up with our growth and speed up the site, but this first step should fix most of the problems we've all been experiencing over the last few days.

Thanks again to our users for sending us feedback about these issues. We encourage you to continue sending us feedback about technical issues or anything else that you would like to see on Radar. Please check the blog regularly - or just grab our feed - for updates on the aforementioned issues.

Hello Radar,

This is one of the most fabulous things I've come across on the net. It's private and public and it's perfect!
The mobile app. work like a charm, of course. Although, I have a suggestion, and do forgive me if this is the wrong place!
It is this: Is there any way you guys can integrate T9 or any other dictionary feature for the mobile app. from within itself (i.e. not using the phone's dictionary feature, but one that comes along with the app.'s programming)?
It's a real pain typing out comments with the standard layout, especially for me, who is so used to using T9 :P

Thanks a lot, and keep growing!

Hi Kazarelth,
Thanks for your feedback and question! Unfortunately, we can't integrate T9 directly into the text boxes in the Radar mobile app. However, if you select the "Edit" button next to the text boxes, you will go to a full-screen editing mode with all the editing options of your phone available to you. When you're done editing, you'll return to Radar and the text will automatically be inserted into the mobile app.
Sincerely,
Francis
