Regarding the phone app, not the data service... You familiar with React Native? https://facebook.github.io/react-native/

Basically, you write in javascript, and all smart phones since like 2 years ago will compile and run as a native app. You have access to everything, file system, accelarometer, camera, microphone, etc etc.

95% code reusability betwen iOS and Android versions is pretty much bog-standard.

Yea I know react. Would use that or angular for the app front end.

I am definately the John Snow here, I know nothing. Not sure if you have to tie into the API or just use a webview session instead, but if its the API, pehaps you need to understand/know the classes and interfaces etc. so here is the quicklink to the actual Vbulletin 4 (the version this site uses) API:

and an overview

Not sure if this helps, but perhaps it will, what do I know, see John Snow
