I wasn't sure which board to post this question on, so I decided to go with this. Sorry if I posted in the wrong section.
Anyway, I am looking for a good, solid iphone app to play backgammon on. It must include online support, so I can play with other players as well. What can you recommend? So far I have only found Masters of backgammon (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/masters-of-backgammon/id453693297?mt=8). What are the reviews on this one? Are there any better?
BGOnline is the app that will get you into FIBs from your iPhone. Here is a review and a link to more information.

The one from Odesys (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.odesys.bgmon) seems to be the only one where you can play from android on FIBS. Works perfect.
I have downloaded Backgammon Gold app for iPad, but how does one login to the FIBS server to play via the Backgammon Gold App?
I know nothing about the interface you mention, and we dont have a thread about it here, so I am not sure it does log into FIBs.
I know this one does...and lots of people use it, so you can get support if you are stuck. It tells you how to log into FIBs too.

Well Diane, the user mobivention is linking to the BG Gold app in this thret. So I was asuming it would log into FIBS, as the topic is about online backgammon gaming in a FIBS forum. I don't have access to appstore via the link you post, probably because I'm not from the US. could you state the excact name of the app, so I can find it in app store from my own country?
By my opinion the best app for iPhone and iPad is backgammon live (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/backgammon-live/id466024106). Has a great support, design and lot of players
Agree with you. Sadly that app is only for iOS devices... Would have been good if it was also on PC.
that simple, the only app which can log into Fibs for iphone and ipad is Backgammon Online 3 (from multimedia-go) which is not free but worth the price.
there was a free client in the past, but it's not available on the appstore anymore, and i couldnt find a link on internet, though some player on fibs still use that one
