AI Thread Summary
The PF Mobile App is no longer active, and users are experiencing network errors due to its discontinuation. Instead of the app, users are advised to access PF through a mobile browser, which has been optimized for this purpose. An announcement regarding the app's shutdown was made nearly a year ago, indicating that it will not be reinstated. Users seeking assistance are encouraged to refer to previous discussions for more information. The transition to browser use is the recommended solution for accessing PF on mobile devices.
