How is Tapatalk?

[GeoJelly]

I see quite a few members use Tapatalk - so I went to the iTunes store to download it. The reviews weren't that good - apparently even the paid version (for Apple) has a lot of popups and annoyance ads.

What says the wizards of SWF? Is it a pain or is it worthwhile? Thanks!!

I've had no issues. Occassionally, I log off and log back in for a minor glitch, but every software and hardware computer thingymabob requires that. I downloaded it when they had a special free offer. Works fine on my samsung "smart"phone. Much better for navigating multiple forums on a mobile device and requires only one login. You can also manage notifications for all forums from tapatalk. I know some people don't like it, but it makes things easier for me...at least that's what 7 out of 10 voices in my head tell me.

I have Android so it may be different. Been using it for years and no pop-ups. It's simple layout, easy to navigate. You get all the pictures but without the graphics. Fast and easy.

Occasionally it crashes but that's rare. It happens to me a few times a year.

Also easier to post pictures from. Just click on the picture icon, select picture and hit send.

I tried it on my iPad a couple of years ago, and didn't like it. Might be more useful on an iPhone or other smart phone.

I have it on this iPad but mostly don't use it.
As I have posted before, I like Chrome.
Using it right now.
Strongly recommend Chrome on the iPad.

I use "dark mode" on my tapatalk. It seems to cause less eye fatigue for me.

Yes, pictures, links, videos, etc., are much easier to post via tapatalk. As I said, I mostly navigate forums on my phone.

Exactly. I use mine for forums. OP, in settings you can change the layout to whatever you like

I used to use it on my Samsung Galaxy 4G when I worked at the Cleveland Clinic and had a lot of time sitting around waiting for processes to run when I was replacing PCs. It worked ok.

The problem I had was that that phone just didn't have enough memory for much of anything, and was constantly crashing.

Now I almost never use a phone for internet, except emergencies. I imagine it would work just fine on my Nexus 5.

I use Tapatalk for small smartphone screens. Works really well.

I don't care for it on my iPad. I'll use it on my phone if I just have to get on a forum, but I can usually wait until I get home.

Thank you very much to each and all for your input!! I did not know that it has a dark mode – which is great for my cataract-affected eyes. Downloading in a minute ...

Dark mode rules.

Apparently it's pretty clever since it seems impossible to keep it out of one's posts...

If you're talking about that sig line on the bottom ....you can erase it or replace it I just don't care enough to do either

Love it, no issues. Nice to be on many forums at once.
