Ad redirecting to Apple App Store in Germany

[Lady Squid]

Hi - a German member of my forum said she's getting an ad that redirects to the Apple App store. She's located in Germany. I asked her to send you a screenshot the way you suggest but here's what I got from her, she asked me to pass it along, I told her I didn't know if it would help you or not. Here goes (she said it happens when she changes threads):

Hi Squid,

I have only a tablet with me at the moment, so I have no clue how to press "ctrl alt r" on it.
Could you may pass it over in my name?

Thanks for the report, Lady Squid. We'll do some screening and will bring the findings to our ad team

[Lady Squid]

CheatAreZee Oh good, I'm glad this info is helpful!

Thanks,

I do have one question, actually, can you check with the member to see if they were using the desktop mode or mobile view when they were browsing the forum? Judging from the size of the screenshot, I'm assuming they're using an iPad which defaults to the desktop view, but I just want to be sure

Hi, yes I'm using my iPad ?

[Lady Squid]

Hi Bee, he needs to know if it's "desktop mode" or "mobile view" on your iPad

[Bee290963]

How can I check this?

[Lady Squid]

If you don't know, you probably have it in the default "desktop mode". ;D

[Bee290963]

Squid, you know I'm blond :lol:

[Lady Squid]

CheatAreZee Hi Ricky, since Bee is (her words) blonde, just assume it's desktop mode.

(I know her, don't worry!)

[CheatAreZee]

Just to confirm, if you scroll down to the very bottom of the page you'll either see a button that says "Desktop" which means you're currently browsing with the mobile view. Or you'll see a link that says "Switch to the Mobile Version", which indicates you're browsing with the desktop view

[Bee290963]

Hi, I see the link which says "switch to the mobile version"

[CheatAreZee]

Perfect, thanks for checking back on it Bee290963

Lady Squid,

Just to not alarm you, I needed to create an account on the forum and have went ahead and approved it just for the sake of speeding things along. The new account you see is me

I got an email about it - I was just asking to make sure it was you! LOL

Go for it, let me know when I can delete you.
