Tapatalk for mobile devices?

[Ripper]

I guess theresre quite many people usong their iphones and orter mobile platforms to access pro-touring.com. Atleast i'm one of them...



There's a really great app called tapatalk which is available for iOS, android, blackberry (not sure) etc that creates a much better layout for a mobile platform (which doesn't have a 22" screen...). Some of the swedish forums that I visit has it and it's really nice.

It's easy to install in phpBB 3.x too. I don't know with vbulletin though, which I guess pro-touring.com is using.

But it might be something for the admins to take a look at? It would make it alot easier to access the forum from your phone/iPad etc...

Just a thought...

I am planning to update the site to the newest version and set up free iphone and android apps.

I have started dealing with becoming a developer and will pay for all the various items it requires soon. I also need to coordinate with a couple of people that help with the code and with any luck it should be done in a few weeks.

If you need some help on the coding front let me know, its what I do for a living...

Thank you Larry for your continued efforts to keep me from having time at work to accomplish something work related

[Ripper]

Larry; sounds great! Give the tapatalk-app a chance though. It's really good, specially if you are posting on another couple of forums too.


Anyways, i'm curious to see what happens

[Larry Callahan]

Lol!

Here it's another vote for tapatalk

Setting up this forum for tapatalk can be done in a couple of minutes. All you have to do is register and list your forum on their site, ownoad a tidbit of code, upload it to the server and add a line of code to one of the header templates. Very very easy.

I use tapatalk a lot and would love to see this site added to the list. Much easier to use than a mobile skin.

[Ripper]

Exactly! And you could still have an app for the pro-touring.com site and forum if you want that. The more ways you could access a site in, the better it is for the visitors.


I would definitely love the tapatalk solution!

[rossmacd]

Probably the only problem with tapatalk is that the members have to buy the app. But tapatalk is so ready to use that $3 is well worth it. I bought it and I only visit a few forums. It's really a well made app; simple and ready to use.

[Larry Callahan]

I hope to have the apps up and running soon. I need to do a little tweak and get my hands on a Mac to complete the iphone app.

[4MuscleMachines]

That would be awesome Larry. I find TapaTalk and/or Autoguide very easy to navigate and they run faster than if on Safari.

I can't wait for the andriod version i use my phone so much for this web site. At work most of my time, if not there off doing family stuff. If i had to pay for a app i wouldnt mind at all. thanks for your guys work

Yes, I ran a search ON tapatalk. Pro-touring.com did not show up. I use tapatalk for 10+ other forums and they have a search function to use when you want to add another forum to your acct. Adding another app isn't a problem but tapatalk works great, it's free to the admin, and can be setup in minutes.

I think he means he searched for PT.com on tapatalk, but nothing came up.

I'd like the Tapatalk support, but I'd give the app a try... if it were free, which I doubt.

[Ripper]

How's it going with the apps and stuff? Guess some still is interested in the tapatalk-compability...

[Larry Callahan]

I have started and paid for an iphone and android app that will work slick. I just need to get my hands on a mac to complete it. Why Apple forces you to use a MAC to set it up is beyond me.

[Ripper]

Probably because they can.

So there's no plans for a tapatalk-add-in for the forum?
