Update: this app is no longer available.
When I hosted the survey so many of you faithfully answered, some of you mentioned my blog was hard to load.
And hard to read, as it wasn’t mobile friendly. (eep!)
I know. I know it all. I’ve delayed things terribly, because my original blog designer and guru team are no longer in the biz as they use to be. So as my blog limps along…
I received an email, asking if I’d like to be part of a new, easy to read mobile app, that was all about Home and Garden BLOGS.
Blink.
Um… hello?
And then the iPhone 6+ came out. You know what happened next…
“You deserve a new phone, you know.”
“Yes. Why yes I do!”
I remember the day. I was SOOOOO excited! I sprinted walked into the store and actually laughed (I really did) at the salesman using one as a phone. Imagine… 🙂
It truly looked like he was walking around talking to a book against the side of his head.
But… I came home with one anyway. Book phones are cool, no?! 😀
Well.. I cannot TELL you how exciting this new toy is.
You see, I have a little late night habit. I love to crawl under the covers right before the lights go out for one final scroll around blogland. But it was a little hard to do with the smaller phone.
Now? Oh gosh…
And team that up with my newest buddy, bHome (no longer avail) it’s a recipe for getting to bed WAY too late these days!
Wouldja just look at that? I’m in an ad thing! 🙂
So, here’s the blog reader part. Look how BIG that text is! Easy on the eyes without a doubt.
But it gets better. Are you ready?
MANY of your fav home and garden blogs have been curated for this growing community kinda app.
Oh. I missed a few million things it also does.
You can catch ALL the social media extensions of said blogs from the app too. So if you wish to peek in to see what someone pinned or Instagrammed or Tweeted, it’s all right there with one tap and scroll. You can even reshare from the same screens.
You’re gonna die guys… it is SO well done! And so fun to play with!
So far it’s only available for iPhone, but Android is also in the works!
Here… I made a video so you can see how easy it is… the app has gone through a few upgrades, so what you see is a tiny bit different than the one you will download… it’s even BETTER now
There’s only one problem left…
Must be all that hot content in da house. 🙂
Expensive story coming soon… sigh.
But don’t say I didn’t warn you… z z z x 20000 missing 🙂
Update: this app is no longer available.
WOW, so cool! Congrats to you!! I will download asap, and wait patiently for my chance to get my lil blog on there! 🙂
Go apply, Kimm! They are going to add more blogs!
Awesome! Can’t wait to it available for Android!
I love it! Just loaded it on my iPad and I’m in heaven! I might not get anything done today now 🙂
Isn’t it ridiculously cool? I need to load it on my iPad… I keep forgetting I have it now that I have a big ‘ol phone! 🙂
So happy to be part of the bHome family and I must say that the more I use this app the more amazed I am!….sorry about the phone!!…
Oh I need that app but first like you, I need to replace my iPhone4 with a 6+ so I can actually see what’s on the screen. Oh boy, looks like yours had a little and very expensive oops. That had to hurt!
Don’t even think twice Marie… you can’t carry the 6+ in a pocket any longer, but it’s worth it regardless!
I’m definitely going to have to check out that app! How fun to see my pallet wall hook show up in the video too! 🙂
What can I say? I feature the best of the best. 🙂
I can’t wait to download the app…looks like you need to get protection for your phone when you replace it..(not advertising for them but get an Otterbox.) I drop my iPhone frequently and it has protected it so well that I never broken or damaged it in any way.
I agree 3 million percent! The wallet style cover flipped open when the phone dropped out of my pocket. Two mistakes… pocket, and a cover that flips open! 🙂 More on this dilemma soon…
I just want to say hard to load is an understatment . And you have to much advertising !!!!! Cut it out already ! I got rid of other blogs because of the advertising and your gettng close. But I really really like your blog .So what am I to do ? I like you and your family the fact that you adopted your son . Your creativity is outstanding . But I am thinking of unsucribing . god bless .
Hi Sarah, which advertising is giving you the most grief? I appreciate your feedback and I do listen to every word. Thank-you. 🙂
No thank you. Saturated enough. Have fun, though.
Understandable! But I actually find the app makes reading blogs way more efficient than blog hopping on my own. A person needs shortcuts these days! 😉
Well, if that isn’t the coolest thing ever! Donna, please alert us when they get the app ready for android so I can check this thing out on my Samsung, k? I also wanted to congratulate you on being chosen to be a part of such an amazing app! It’s only February and, already, you are rockin’ 2015, girl! *high fives!*
Donna…Whoa what a day! Took me a while to get here ’cause lots of action on bHome! I couldn’t have, and glad I didn’t have to, done it without you!
I am so excited to get to know your peeps that join us on bHome.
We are a growing community so give us a look over & a holler if you’d like to learn more!
“Inspire, Create, Connect” – glad to do all three with you Miss Donna!
XX,
Kelly
Oh, this looks a little dangerous and lots of fun. Let us know when it’s available for us android folks please.
Oh you better believe I will Sandy! Catch up on your sleep while you can… hahah
Great idea! I’ll be impatiently waiting for it to come out for Android users:-)
They are working on it as I type! 🙂
This is great, Donna! I don’t find FJI hard to load but I do like having the app so I can catch up on all my favourites much more easily. It feels so natural now I wonder what we ever did before? Huh. Well, I’m sure it looks great on the book-sized 6, and yeah, you deserve it.
OH this looks neat!! I can’t wait til it gets to Android! I’m an Android girl! 😉
Nancy
please let us know when its available for android…..I’m very excited!
You bet I will!
I absolutely LOVE this new app. I’ve had it for a couple days now and I have “heart” you, You’re right, a few less zzzzzz’s.
You totally rocked the video…it really relays how easy the app is to use and all it can do. Well done!
Thanks for this amazing video of bHome, Donna! My readers will really learn a lot from it the same way I did. Looking forward to joining in tomorrow!!
