Tapatalk? (iPhone)

[cliveyandrews]

Is there any support for Tapatalk (the iPhone app to read phpBB3 forums on the iPhone)...?

I can't always get to a lappy - but me iPhone is grafted to me!

No idea but why don't you buy it and then you can tell us if it does or not? I just use safari on my touch.

I do have it - it's a very nice interface, but can't find this forum on it (there is a VFR forum, ak)

It needs the admins to allow the plugin:

Alright Clivey I've tried it and it seens a handy wee thing so we'll go for it. I'll try and get the forum added over the weekend.

[cliveyandrews]

Thanks Rich!

I tied to add it to the GT550 forum I run - but alas, it doesn't support it (forummotion.com) - I might move it to get some support...

Anybody any good with graphics? If I go ahead with this I'll need a wee picture to represent the forum on this taptalk application. "For best viewing experience on mobile devices, prepare a 90x90 pixels image file in JPG format." Obviously something firestorm related will be ideal but I will be willing to review any naked pictures of your wife/girlfriend you submit.

No payment will be forthcoming but you will get a warm, fuzzy feeling inside from knowing you done something good today

[cliveyandrews]

I can do that, no probs...

I'll PM you my email..

You still couldn't handle it

You still couldn't handle it

Maybe not but I'm willing to have a look

OK, we're sorted. I'm too mean to buy the full version so Clivey can test it out for us. Here's the blurb from the apps web site if anyone else wants to play with it. You'll find us under Japanese Motorcycles surprisingly enough.

.....and it works like a charm (he says replying from his iPhone, lying in bed!)

whats the advantage of this app over visiting the forum with the web browser?

[chi kung]

I've been using this app for a while now and it's very good. It basically gives you a list of all the forums you are a member of. You then select the forum you want and it takes you there without having to log in.

I find it quicker than the browser as the page is there waiting. It also shows unread threads etc.

The big advantage is I can go on there when I'm at work. Just like now.

Hope this helps.
