OVF has a number of ways for users with mobile devices to add this site as an “app” or shortcut…
Android Users
Unfortunately, our branded app was removed from the Google Play store due to the high costs of constantly altering it to Google’s draconian rules and also because there are still alternative options for accessing OVF on your mobile. We are sorry for any inconvenience and you may want to let Google know your thoughts on this.
You still have three ways to access this website.
1. Our built-in progressive app.
If you are visiting this site on a mobile it’s pretty easy to add this site as a icon. Follow the instructions below and an icon will be placed on your phone which you can click on to visit OVF.

3. Access OVF via a mobile browser
We continue to make our site as mobile-friendly as possible and it should display correctly on most, if not all, mobile browsers. You can log on to the forum and read / make posts.
Apple users
Unfortunately, our branded app was removed from the Apple App store due to changes brought in by Apple which required us to pay a significant annual “developer’s” fee to keep the app in the store. The number of Apple users using our app did not justify the high costs of maintaining it especially as there are two other ways to access OVF on your phone (see below). We are sorry for any inconvenience and you may want to let Apple know your thoughts on this.
