Are you offering to make one? This is a volunteer organization after all.
Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. DickIf nothing else, it'd be nice to have an app to display YKTTW and You Know That Show entries. Perhaps with an option to shake for a random entry.
Actually, a "shake for a random Troper Tales page" app would be pretty cool, too.

How about just appify the story/pitch generators?
At first I didn't realize I needed all this stuff...The main problem with this would be that there's not an API (to my knowledge) that would allow just anyone to make such an app.
Fzzr Miller because underscores are brokenHow about a mobile site version? That might work more easily. I'd help but I have zero programming experience.
I'm baaaaaaackThere is already a TV Tropes app, though it's mostly a "find the tropes when you aren't online" kind of thing, no bells or whistles.
Fly High, Seek PeaceI wouldn't mind seeing a working TV Tropes app that's more like a guidebook to TV Tropes and more.
Sure, we have Pocket Tropes, but unfortunately, it's just bare minimum stuff.
Anyone voluteering to make this app? It has to be similar to tvtropes.org but also similar to "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" where info can be accessed from your guidebooks (iPad/iPod Touch/iPhone
The only useful thing an app could provide without downloading the whole TVT database to your mobile device is to reskin the site so it's easier to navigate. Seems like a lot of effort for little payoff.

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanIsn't there already a mobile version of the site already planned? I'm not sure an app would be very useful or necessary in that case.
Insert witty 'n clever quip here.Yes, the beta is experimenting with mobile layout.
