OstrichSaK · February 2nd, 2010, 03:43 AM

Not sure why so many forums are dragging their feet on this one. A couple forums I moderate it's like pulling teeth to get the admins to implement it.

Carl C · February 2nd, 2010, 05:53 AM

Moved to suggestion box and feedback

**Phases** · February 2nd, 2010, 07:31 AM

Will point to Rob.

Caddyman · February 2nd, 2010, 08:08 AM

FWIW Phases, I just installed tapatalk on 2 vB forums in the last week, takes maybe 5 minutes top, all you do is upload some files and add 1 line of code in the footer. Virtually no extra load on the server either, and free advertising...

5 minutes? wow! i agree do tapatalk! it is alot cleaner than the mobile version via the web

Howie · February 2nd, 2010, 04:57 PM

They charge iPhone users, so what's to stop them from charging Android or BlackBerry users? For that reason I wouldn't download it on any of my devices. But, more options for the site the better

As long as it's free I'll DL and use it. If they want to charge when it's out of Beta then I'll uninstall and go back to viewing full pages on my glorious Droid screen. Then again I'm not the type that pays for apps so I'm the wrong one to ask. I'm sure some would pay the two or three bucks to use it but who are we to decide that for them?

**Phases** · February 2nd, 2010, 05:04 PM

I'm all for it. However this is one of those things that's up to Rob to do. I've pointed him to this thread - though I'm not sure how he feels about it.

If we get a fair amount of replies asking for it I will re-push the idea to him.

Edit: Also from what I understand it's free for limited features (read only..), paid for extra (like, reply to threads.)

mbaseball3 · February 2nd, 2010, 05:16 PM

yeah there's talk of a pay app. if you haven't dl'ed tapatalk yet do it but. the beta is free. as soon as they decide on if its a pay or not they'll send out an update. last thing you wanna do is click update.

so far on android it is free.. on the iphone there is a free version and a 2.99 version. 2.99? thats nothing to access your fav forum in a high quality manner

Caddyman · February 2nd, 2010, 10:20 PM

yeah for iphone you get rad only for free and paid for full features, right now on android it is full app for free.

Rob, if your seeing this, it a good move buddy! free for you and you get one more avenue to advertise the site!!

BiGMERF · February 3rd, 2010, 11:37 AM

if you ask me its a win win... painless

I was navigating androidcommunity.com on tapatalk a sec ago and its a 100 percent better than the web browsers mobile version. make the move rob! ! Lol

mbaseball3 · February 3rd, 2010, 10:43 PM

I volunteer to do it for you rob. I'm new to this forum and have found a whole ton of useful info and would love to navigate thru here in a much more efficient manner. so get er done!?

epuiatti · February 4th, 2010, 03:18 PM

Just downloaded the app now, its really amazing. Please "Rob?" do it... You will have my eternal gratitude.

lekky · February 6th, 2010, 07:12 AM

Do it :P

milrtime83 · February 7th, 2010, 09:17 PM

Looks like there is a pro version of tapatalk out now. $2 "introductory price" until Feb 15th. Beta version will become read only by the end of Feb.

BiGMERF · February 8th, 2010, 12:39 AM

im going to gladly pay the 2 bucks for it.. small price to pay for such quality work. its 2.99 in the apple market

Got my nexus and bought the tapatalk apparently. Sweet deal for 1.99

**Phases** · February 12th, 2010, 02:05 AM

Enjoy, everybody say "Thank you, Rob!"

:P

mbaseball3 · February 12th, 2010, 03:24 AM

guess what I'm using? Tapatalk!!! yeah buddy! lol thanks rob! you deserve that much lol. gah bout time. now I can keep up with the 2,184 threads about 2.1 update

lekky · February 12th, 2010, 11:32 AM

OK so, tapatalk is terrible and unusable.. its amazingly slow, more than I thought possible. Takes about 5 mins load a subforum (over HSDPA), nevermind a thread...

Browser is much faster.

Really? Bummer. It works rather well for me. Very, very fast.

vido.ardes · February 12th, 2010, 11:40 AM

Woo! Tapatalk rules! Thanks Rob!

... and Phases

PhilosoRaptor · February 12th, 2010, 11:45 AM

I'm trying the beta with good results. Very fast loading and easy browsing/posting.

Pretty sure I'll buy it now.

lekky · February 12th, 2010, 11:50 AM

I don't get it. Crazy slow on my hero. You guys login with it yeah?

This is awesome! I download the free version to my Droid. Works great. Really fast! Thinking about buying the paid version. Thanks so much Rob!

Paid or free version?

Both. Tried the free, was really god so I paid for it, and my experience was the same. I am running a custom ROM so the experience probably isn't comparable

lekky · February 12th, 2010, 04:21 PM

Using the free one, it runs fine if I'm not logged in. But when I log in it goes to crap...

gadzooks · February 12th, 2010, 06:18 PM

Taking free version out for a spin on droid. Preliminarily... slick, logged in even. Thank you !

InstantKarma · February 13th, 2010, 02:35 AM

I keep getting a "bad socket" message. I'm not sure if that's from the forums or the (beta) app.

brettlewis · February 14th, 2010, 04:00 AM

its ok, had some connection issues.

why not just get a mobile version of vbulliten?

BiGMERF · February 14th, 2010, 10:28 AM

they do have a mobile version just click on the style drop down on the lower left

by the way rob you rock!!! tapatalk works 100 percent on my nexus!!! no issues at all

twospirits · February 23rd, 2010, 10:51 PM

I'm curious, whats the difference between the free and paid version?

TS out (trying it out)

momoceio · February 23rd, 2010, 10:59 PM

I believe at the end of the month...the free version will be read-only and the paid version allows you to post. However, if you have the free version and don't update then I suppose you'll be fine unless they disable it somehow.

alostpacket · February 23rd, 2010, 10:59 PM

I used the free one and it couldn't find AF and harassed me to upgrade.

twospirits · February 23rd, 2010, 11:22 PM

Same thing here, so I am upgrading.

Edit: Found it and its working fine.

TS

alostpacket · February 23rd, 2010, 11:26 PM

Heh that's cool. My reaction was "uninstall" but to each their own

twospirits · February 23rd, 2010, 11:30 PM

pretty cool, replying from phone.

BiGMERF · February 24th, 2010, 09:52 AM

two spirits get rid of the sig..lol.. i hated the fact that all my posts said that it was coming form tapatalk! i emailed the dev about it..

twospirits · February 24th, 2010, 11:22 AM

okay, let's see. considering that the signature is only suppose to show up in the members first post and not afterwards let's see if it still shows up. either way I'll go into settings and take off the tapatalk Sig addon after posting this message.

twospirits · February 24th, 2010, 11:24 AM

yeah it still adds it regardless how vbulletin Is set up. I removed the tag line.

twospirits · February 24th, 2010, 11:26 AM

let's try this one more time.

BiGMERF · February 24th, 2010, 11:27 AM

i still see it.. lmao

edit: ok gone now

twospirits · February 24th, 2010, 11:28 AM

Ok, it works now. You need to go into Settings and uncheck the TapaTalk Signature, to remove that sig every time you make a post.

TS out (to ban myself for posting so many back to back posts)
