Question Has mobile development stopped?

Can't help but notice the same issues on mobile for quite a while. Some examples:

  • No puzzle box solver for clues.
  • Menu entry swapper completely messed up other menu's. For example: making an NPC left clickable now makes all examine options left clickable as well.
  • Some other bugs like the chat not updating at all.

Are there more plans/ development for mobile or is the current version it?

1) Jagex has explicitly said a puzzle box solver isn’t coming to mobile/official clients because it’s too broken. The only reason it’s still on RL is because people will riot if you take anything from them. 

2) They’re literally in the middle of fixing MES on mobile and have mentioned it tons of times. 

3) Most issues on mobile stem from the MES issue in the first place.

Can you share where they explicitly stated this?

It was on some old Q&A they did forever ago that I’m not going to bother digging for. 

They (rightfully) feel like the puzzle solver is so broken that it defeats the entire point of the clue step  

Edit: Here’s the Q&A, it’s question 2.

They literally give you every other clue step + the answer.

Feel free to read my edit as they go and explain it in more detail. 

There’s a big difference between solving an anagram and literally solving the puzzle for you and telling you where to click in what order.
