Hi,

I'm thinking about adding a link to the status page (status.mobilevikings.com) in an update of the My Viking iOS app. I noticed the website isn't very mobile friendly, are there plans to improve the display of the status page on for instance the iPhone? I think with only a few tweaks it could/would be a lot better.

Thanks,
Yannick

Hey Yannick,

For the status page we use open-source software called Overseer (https://github.com/disqus/overseer), unfortunately they have stopped updating it and it is indeed not responsive. At the moment we have no plans of updating this page. But I have created a ticket for it.
What you can do now, is do some webscraping on the status page, you can easily retrieve the status of all services. This is not the best solution, but it shall work. And you can then integrate it into your app, instead of only linking to it :)

Cheers,
