    Especially for use on a phone, it can be a bit of a trial, to find out a member's vehicle and location. Could that info be shown in the pop-up avatar? Here's mine, as an example. There's a lot of stuff in here that doesn't seem that critical (circled); maybe some of the fields could be reworked?

    When I'm not on a Win 10 pc, I'm using an iPhone with (built-in) browser Safari. Hey, what are you gonnaIt serves up a "phone friendly" version of the website, without the need for an extra app. It's a good format, but some corners are cut. Specifically: if you're in a thread and just trying figure out on-the-fly what gen someone is, or where they are, the only way is to click on the avatar, and then follow the bouncing ball through several pages.

    Here's the process:

    1. Click on avatar. Now it'd be nice if this one action would reveal the info. Anyway, what you get:

    2. Click on above and you get:

    3. Click on "information" in the above, and you (finally) see vehicle and location info:
