I guess this one is more for the admins but is there any chance of getting tapatalk enabled on the forum?

I use tapatalk on a couple of other forums and it is pretty good. Plus it would help me while a way a couple of hours at work when im bored and the IT Police dont let us have any fun at my work!

I'm not sure there is really a demand for it, the forum is usable on smart phones, so its a real minority who haven't got a smart phone, but have a phone that supports Tapatalk. From the admin side it is yet another mod to the phpBB that will potentially fight with something else.

Q: What's the point of this app if my members can access my site with mobile skin or Safari at no cost?

A: Most users are content with the mobile skin or a standard web browser but some of them would appreciate a full-on native app forum experience on their phone. For example Tapatalk app allows user to upload photo directly from their phone to your forum as an image attachment. All these will drive more engagement to your forum at no cost to you.


It's official - I know nothing about modern communcations.

There is a cost, it may not be measurable in £££, but time and hassle.

As the feedback was negative, I'm assuming no...

I was joking buddy. Totally appreciate the effort that a lot of people must put in to keep this board up and running and I don't want to make it even more difficult for anyone.

Tapatalk is an app for smartphones that allows you super fast access to phpBB enabled forums in an easier way than using a browser on a smartphone. Is available on for apple, android, blackberry and Nokia.
