Folks - we lost our thanks stats (they're back now) for a bit due to plugin capability between phpBB and Tapatalk.

Keeping TT functionality working is being a bit of a pain for me recently. Chas' Land-Rover comes to mind... :)

I'm investigating other options regarding "app-based" functionality for forum interaction.

In the meantime, as per the thread title, I'm trying to get numbers of people who actually use Tapatalk for here...

I only use Tapatalk when accessing The Other Forum from my phone but it's actually a pain. There are functions that don't work, like the private messages, where then change over to using a browser on the phone. I wouldn't miss it if Tapatalk disappeared completely.

Tappitalk is going to do badly on this poll as you cant vote if you are on Tappitalk... :D

I am with Paul on this one.

Only if I submit say a trip report, will I use the browser.

I do all functions using my phone

I really don't like Tappittalk - horrible app. I prefer a browser on phone or computer

Makes sense (about tapatalk). I've heard that Pornhub causes tapatalk to frequently crash.

Hmmm, I almost exclusively use Tapatalk Pro. I agree, the free version is horrible.

Mainly my reasoning is that I’m on many forums. MyBB, SAGamer, Pajero, Gunsite, CloudyNights, Patrol, 4x4Comm, MacRumers, brewing and distilling forums, various Linux and FreeBSD forums… to name a few.

Just so much easier with them all in one place.

For some reason the private messaging doesn’t work on 4x4Comm, but on the other forums it does, so it’s not a Tapatalk issue at all.

There are two forums I use thats not available on Tapatalk. Carbonite & Wilddog, which I maybe log into 2 or 4 times per year, because they're not working on Tapatalk..

I travel a lot, and spend many hours in transit, so browsing forums from my iPad with Tapatalk Pro just works easy for me…
