Install tapatalk

[iFish]

Hola, staff....

I found this nifty thing called tapatalk for forums.

http://www.tapatalk.com/


It supports:vBulletin, IPBoard, phpBB and SMF forums that have activated Tapatalk.

and it's free to put on your forum.

Since most of us are pirates anyway. we cna pirate the app. but there is a free one

So.. YEAH!

Tapatalk is a pretty nice, useful app. I would be in favor of having GBAtemp compatible.

yes you can just browse the normal website but loading
takes forever (especially when not on wifi)

er, no.
Browsing with Opera Mini on 3G here, pages load pretty fast.

and of course you get perfect 3g signal all over the globe

Obviously.

But generalizing your experience with 3G is totally wrong. Not everybody gets the same (poor) signal strength as you.

point is it takes less data, which is good for people with weak signal and those with data caps or pay-as-you-go plans

and it's all around a really good app, you should legitimately try it and tell me you'd rather use the browser

I also like tapatalk. Too bad it's not supported but I guess it can't be helped.

Damn, I was just about to install Tapatalk automatically assuming it would just work on GBAtemp.
Guess that saves me some time/space.

I honestly dont like tapatalk and decline to use it anytime a board claims it is mobile with it.

It cuts down on features and functions that I may or do use. With the way smartphones are now, browsing gbatemp on my phone is a cinch, and as they all increase in power and screen size, I really do not see the need.

I don't get any 3G signal where I live (an hour out from Aberdeen). I get a perfect 2G signal though and that DOES load the boards though it is quite slow. Not terrible though.

As interesting as this idea is there is the fact that with how modified this forum is it would take a LOT of work to upgrade it. We'd lose some features and regain them slowly over time etc.

Need isn't the same as want. It's an option, not compulsory.
I'd quite like to see Tapatalk compatible, but a board update will be necessary first. At the moment I just use it for xda-developers. The GBAtemp cheats forum works, but I never go there.

 

[Caderyn]

I, too, would like to see GBAtemp on Tapatalk, but if it's too much work, then obviously don't waste time. I have like 5 forums that are compatible, but it's because they're all smartphone forums like XDA and SDX. The browser on my Android renders the site perfectly, though, so I have no complaints, buti would vote for it if it was up for discussion.

 

[ProtoKun7]

It would be natively compatible on more recent board software, so once it's updated it should work. My S II renders it well too, but it'd still be less hassle on Tapatalk, which was designed with smartphones in mind, after all.

This is how you know vBulletin isn't an Apple software, we're not forced to buy the latest version to keep support and functionality.

If the site owner does decide to upgrade, however, this is certainly something that would improve site viewing for a lot of members.
