Forums for Android™

Yikes as well.
Has anyone mentioned the app's Open in Browser feature always failing now. I find it useful.
Maybe the share link it makes to a thread is at fault. (I use Chrome as my default browser). Is it missing the thread tittle?

eg ..

I've seen that function behave a bit oddly sometimes, particularly on a fresh install. The trick (for me) at least is to visit the app info screen for the Forums app (Settings > Apps & notifications > See all apps > Forums on my Pixel 2), the go to Advanced > Open by default > Open supported links > Don't open in this app. This way the Forums app won't try to intercept the androidforums.com link that you're trying to pass to the browser.

Thanks. That was worth a try, and I'll work on it some more and reinstall it again.

I changed to don't open in this app and when that didn't work I cleared defaults as well.

It's no biggie for me really. All forums apps, though I haven't used many, have little used dusty corridors it seems.
^ (I've no idea where I got that! from)

Hey guys, I have some possible complaints about the forums app but would like to present this in a constructive query instead.
Is there any way/possibility to reintegrate Tapatalk to Android Forums.. Even with some possible kind of paid scenario?

Here's why I ask:
Ever since you guys removed Tapatalk functionality, app usage to deal with AF has been a serious pain and this is my list of WTF's..
- Thread quotes/Replies constantly F/C
- There's never any Forum.apk updates or improvements
- Post's made with the Forums.app has a buncha weird stuff added when we use amy symbols, leaving use with posts near impossible to understand when reading from a webpage..
- That beautiful 'ignore' list doesn't apply or extend to the app's function and ppl still have to deal with ppl they've set in the ignore list. If you select IGNORE/BLOCK in a website or even just the Tapatalk app, you never see or hear from the ignored list.
- I know that one of the supposed reasons the Forums app was made was due to lack of TT updates.. And that's changed. A LOT.

I feel y'all have been wonderful to me here in AF but are generally leaving users hanging with these (app) issues here. I thank you & hope this post has some merit that others can expand on or add things I've forgotten to list/detail..

Steve’s no longer employed by us so I'm pretty sure bug fixes etc aren't going to happen any time soon unfortunately.

@NightAngel79 might be able to shed some more light on what's happening though.

Thank you, I can hope so as it seems Steve left AF in a worse situation of app integration than when we had Tapatalk capability. BTW, Tapatalk still attempts connection to AF even tho unsuccessful..

So does the forum app now have no support at all?

That's my understanding at the moment, yes.
