# Why can't trifid work on mobile devices?
|
|
|
|
Mobile devices are tricky to support. Defined Networking maintains an app known as [Mobile Nebula](https://github.com/DefinedNet/mobile_nebula) to bring support for Defined Networking networks and Nebula to Android and iOS. Why can't we just fork this and add trifid support?
|
|
|
|
Well, [we did](https://github.com/c0repwn3r/trifid_mobile). This fork is known internally as trifid_mobile, and adds trifid support to the mobile_nebula app. Unfortunately the Defined Networking team is not willing to upstream these changes, which is a major roadblock due to the expensive licencing and publishing cost for mobile apps.

That is to say, mobile support is currently stalled due to lack of funding to make it work. While we'd love to introduce support on mobile platforms it is too complicated and expensive to dedicate team time to work on.

If you are a third-party developer with an Apple Developer account and are willing to lend it to publish a trifid_mobile fork, *or* you're a Defined Networking team member that would like to work with us to merge custom URL support into upstream mobile_nebula, please [get in touch directly](mailto:core@e3t.cc) and we can work something out.

For now, trifid cannot support mobile devices :(
