john6767 Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Look at the tapatalk FAQ the forum has to enable support for it by installing a plugin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_rs2000 Posted May 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Sorry can't answer your question but curious about Tapatalk - what are the advantages over Safari access to the forums? Thanks - Davo I have only just started using it so have not had chance to explore yet. I'd say the main advantage is that if you use several forums you can use one user interface (the tapatalk app) to access all of the forums that you frequent. Look at the tapatalk FAQ the forum has to enable support for it by installing a plugin. I wonder if an "Admin" could look into this for us?

Ssscrudddy Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) Just like to add, I would also like to see Tapatalk enabled on this forum. If any of the admin are techy, take a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/ It's all about modding android phones... But they have a free app which is basically tapatalk for their forum only, tapatalk is a premium app, there isn't a free version to try. Tapatalk is available for android & iOS Tapatalk offer a free plugin for forum owners so that you can enable us to use tapatalk on your forum Edited August 5, 2012 by Ssscrudddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Riley Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 Bump! Any news on adding Tapatalk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichM Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 We could easily add this but the only downside is that mobile users will receive a prompt asking if they want to download/install the tapatalk app which some may find annoying/intrusive. Though it should only appear once until your browser cache is cleared IIRC. Interested to hear views/thoughts. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightwatch Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 My own opinion? I manage perfectly well as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich So everybody will get this request once you install the plug-in, the first time they access the forum on a mobile? The less tech savvy users are likely to think they have to install it I suspect. And anything adding to the complexity of the forum software introduces more scope for unexpected stuff to go wrong. I think something to serve 0.1% of forum users is unnecessary really. How many regular posters here would find it useful? One so far has expressed an interest. Anyone else?

Dr Bob Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 Well if the original post was in 2012, and then a six year gap to the 'bump', it cant really be that pressing can it? Why do we need an app to manage fora (plural of forums?). I just click on an email notification and go from there. Please dont complicate things. In twenty years time we will need a poll on whether to leave or not, and look what that has meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noooo.... there are only two people in the world left who can't see the point of a mobile phone. A good proportion of mobile users are not particularly techno-lit.

I recently saw it stated that about 60% of British people own a phobile mone (though I'm not sure at what age they started counting, nor how they counted them. So that leaves a quite large number who do not own one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athy Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 On our boat, 50% does. I assume that you're greatly exaggerating, though. If you go ogling poles, their boyfriends might get upset, so do be careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
