WHT in Google Play or Android Market


Hello everyone,

I found the WHT application to access this website in WHT in Google Play or Android Market but I have my doubt about it. Is this the application to use Android Smartphones or is it a scam?

You can find the application in the play dot Google dot com site (I am still not allowed to publish links) so you can check it

If this is the application then there is not enough information and for me seems that is being produced by someone else and ha one user only

Please let me know, I was about to install it but rather to ask first

Thank you!

We have no app on the market.

Thanks for letting us know. We've contacted Google.

Hey Dennis,
It seems the "App" is nothing more then a frame pointing to WebHostingTalk.com. I decompiled the APK and can confirm there are no keyloggers in there. It should still be removed because it is branded to look like it was released by WHT

WHT in Google Play or Android Market

You are welcome and thank you for your reply, I learn to be careful with everything I instal.

I really don't have many posts because I am founding all the information I need in this wonderful forum. But I am reading here tons of articles also with the mobile version which is good, I would like to do it on the go. Have you thought on an application for smartphones (Specially android) or use tapatalk?

Greetings!

Always wise to read the permissions of every app you install. Most applications on the market (err Play Store) are safe, there are always some bad apples that slip out. I have seen similar apps steal usernames/passwords/etc, replace site ads with their own or much worse.

The Tapatalk conversation has come up a few times in the past. I do know WHT is going to re-visit the mobile content. I personally use the desktop version on my mobile devices (Android Phones/Tablets).

Just looking at the screenshots, I wouldn't bother installing it. The WHT mobile theme is much better.

Indeed, the mobile theme right now fits better.

I agree, [JSH]John. I haven't really used the mobile WHT theme much on my Andriod mobile phone or tablet much I think I did once or twice on my phone, and then just decided to use the desktop version of it when needing to browse on there as it to me is better. But compared to that, the mobile theme for WHT is even better then the screen shots, Why waste space for that app? :-)

I always did wonder if they would come out with a WHT APP though for Andriod and Apple mobile platforms, I would like to see it. Even if it was like a iNet Interactive App. that if you installed it gave you the options to browse there communities, websites, and divisions of it, also with getting news and updates about the whole iNet company/business/community whatever, would be neat and something I would purchase/download.


@KMyers, I know this might be a little off-topic from the subject, but I noticed your signature and I think someone else had a signature just like yours in another post I was viewing, but what is HB that is coming in April if you don't mind me asking? I'm just wondering what it is... HB isn't really enough to think of a name of what it is

Anyways,
zZzz. WHT App

But later developer can change app code and most of peoples want to use only 'up-to-date' Apps.

They did make a discussion thread about a mobile app being developed by iNet.

I like how WHT mobile looks on my Galaxy S2, but I would love to see Tapatalk support. The new Tapatalk that is in beta right now is amazing. Too bad this framework isn't compatible... :\

Also, I saw some scammy looking link to "WHT" on tapatalk. It was some fraudulent forum made to look like WebHostingTalk. I think it was "WHT Talk" lol.

I'll second this.

I recently discovered a forum because they got an app on Google Play, and it is quite convenient.
