I’m using an I phone and don’t see anywhere where I can get to my inbox messages. Hovering is not applicable on an I phone.

On the head in the black task bar above then it will have a drop down saying inbox

I have no black taskbar at all. I have tried everything now and nothing is working, so I guess I won’t be answering my messages. There is no little head to click on, and no black taskbar like there used to be.

You click on classified and then you hit that little guy up on top and on the side it’ll tell you out messages or in messages

Howdy!
If you're logged into the website in the web browser on your phone, you'll see the eBrandon logo at the top of the screen. Just to the right of that is an icon that looks like the outline of a person's head and shoulders. Tap on that and it'll bring up your user menu from the left-hand side of the screen. In there tap on "Messages Inbox" and you'll see what you're looking for. If you arent logged in, the same icon will bring up the login form from the left-hand side of the screen.

If its the app you're using, it's built only as a quick and streamlined version of the website for access to classifieds and forums. The app doesnt have messaging functionality. You'd want to go to your phone's web browser and login to the mobile website to check/send/receive PMs. The best mobile experience with widest functionality is on the mobile website, which is designed for quick & easy use on the smaller screen.

As soon as I tap my e Brandon app on my I phone it takes me straight to the discussions page. On the bottom are settings, photos, discussions. There is no ebrandon logo at the top, or a picture of a head. Many months ago, there used to be all of that. Maybe I have to shut the app down and reload it not sure.

Instead of opening the app, open your browser and type in ebrandon.ca

Have you tried that? Once you have the mobile website, log in and you should be able to open your profile that way.

The app was built as a slim, streamlined extension of the website. For stuff like PMs just open eBrandon on your phone’s web browser and login and you’ll see everything. In your browser the website renders in a way that nicely fits the phone’s screen and still gives you access to all features.
