?Simply because you don't use it, doesn't mean it's a waste. Apps make things much easier, for those of us who access the site from our phones. Things are much quicker using an app versus actually going to site on our phone.
Improvement of the actual game itself helps everyone, not just the people who use smart phones to access the site. Therefore, I think any time invested in the game should be toward improvement of the game, not on tools used by some and not others.
To put it more bluntly: Since I don't use an app, I see any time WIS spends on one as time taken away from improving the game, and to me, that is an absolute waste.
If WIS spends time on an app for HD, it DOES harm those of us who don't use it.
Why?
If there's not an app for HD, that's no big deal. Those who would like to have one can just access it from the internet the same way the rest of us can do on a regular basis.
However, if the game itself begins to suffer while someone is working on an app, that IS a big deal. I suspect improvements to the game itself would take a back seat to an app if they were to devote time to it, and I don't want that to happen.
Bottom line - I want the people working on the game to improve its quality rather than working on features that aren't going to be used by everyone.
