    I'm not with Mercer, but on my iPad I use a browser called Puffin. I started using it years ago when you could not view flash content in Safari. It allows you to set it to use the desktop site by default in settings. You can also enable a software mouse if you find that useful. Can't hurt to try it out with the load board.

    Also, there is setting to allow popup windows. I can't remember if it is enabled or disabled by default.

    I need to test more but so far this puffin browser seems to actually work. I'll have to see how it does during business hours but so far so good. Thanks.

    What about where you couldn't see all your matched loads, where it wouldn't scroll?

    For those that want the regular version on androind and not the mobile .
    Keep in mind this method will log you off all sites

    1. Make sure you have a bookmark to the load board saved
    2. Close all mercer site tabs then Open a new tab other than the mercer site
    3. Click the 3 dots , select settings , then select privacy , then select clear brosing data . Make sure cookies and site data is selected . Make sure that you have from the beginning of time selected at the top . Then hit the clear data button .
    4. Open a new tab and click the 3 dots , scroll down and check off the box " request desktop site "
    5. Now click the bookmark for the mercer load board.

    Never ever go to the mercer load board without opening a new tab and selecting request desktop site . Mercer will cookie your computer to default to mobile and you will have to do this all over again .
    If you have a Apple device
    1. Find a garbage can
    2. Place your device in the can
    3. Buy an Android
    Seriously tho I dont have an apple with me when i go home in a few days ill try to find a solution on my ipad .

    Ok this Puffin browser is the best fix for Apple yet. It's not perfect but since we are dealing with a very flawed site it's darn close. It works off the desktop site, scrolls (can take a sec if at a certain zoom level, but count to three and try again) is easier to refresh. As Mercer has yet to solve refresh issues it WILL let you see exactly who got a load lol.


    The fix was showing me matched loads in the available load list again.

    I want the S8 also, but I'm worried about whether or not I'll have issues with Android 7.0 Nougat. Not sure who you have for a carrier, but AT&T is running a buy on get one promo.

    I like the specs of the S8 +, but I'm a little worried about all the glass on it after watching a video. I didn't know a note 8 was coming, I'll have to see when, I might wait for it. I'm sure the specs wold be similar!
