I often thank people who make helpful and informative posts on PF to show my appreciation. I believe it promotes mutual respect and constructive discussion.

However, unlike the main site, I haven't been able to locate the "thanks" option on posts i view via the physics forums android app. Can it please be added?

Thanks.
