A Buzztouch App?

I found it interesting that I could not seem to find any Buzztouch app. Is there one? Having at least Buzztouch U, the Forums and Hows To's in app form would be very handy...

@Catalyst: Yup, we think it's interesting too! LOL. Years ago, like in the very beginning, there was a buzztouch app. It was a great app and allowed you to do all sorts of neat things in conjunction with your control panel. We're talking pre v1.4 days. Apple didn't like it. At all. Constant debate over whether it was "ok" or not for their market. We pulled it from the market in 2009. It turns out they thought our "App Store App was too much like their App Store." It wasn't an app store app but because they never took the time to actually understand what we were doing they never embraced it. Some of our competitors have "previewer" apps and other nifty creations in the App Store that allow you to "see" your work as you use their web based solution to assemble things. We can't do this because the Plugin Market is a moving target and all the plugin require compiling which means NOT all the plugins would be available in the App Store buzztouch app. Hope this makes sense. We could (and probably should) put some time into a mobile offering of some sort (App Store, Android) that made it fun to find, learn, discover things.

@David Interesting stuff, you never know with apple, maybe the app would still be in existence if you had a better reviewer? ;p @Catalyst There's a Mobile Buzz v1.5 app in Google Play, but that's the closest thing I can find for you. Cheers, David buzztouchmods.com
