Barry,

When will Tapatalk be available for use with BBF?
It's a great application that allows you to interface with forums.
Jeff Suber has had it with the Forgotten Coast Kayak Anglers forum for sometime now.
This is my third request and I'm sure there are other members/sponsors who would like it too.

Thanks,

Here's a link to the software.

It's a great phone app for forums like BBF.
Hope it will be available here soon, I've only been asking for it since May.

I must not be geek enough. I just go to the google browser on my Droid phone and come right to the forum. Seems to work fine for me that way. What am I missing here?

The software is optimized for smart phones and tablets that use touch technology. It takes existing websites and consolidates access to them based on your needs and is much easier to use, and faster, than using separate sites to browse and post. Regular browsers work O.K. with phones and tablets, but my fingers require more room than is normally available on a site designed for using a mouse pointer to click. As a result, I have to enlarge each section before I tap it and that is much slower, and I often make mistakes.

It's a good program.

Great app, it's around $5. Once in a while, you can find it for free. I got lucky and did.

Tapatalk is the best thing since malt liquor.

I do 99% of all my forum posting/ browsing on tapatalk. In fact....this is the only site I post to that I DON'T use tapatalk~ which is why I'm here so infrequently.

If you use a phone to access forums....it is litterally a must have. You can post pics and video instantly from your phone~ no more photobucket or other pic hosting, thrid party site. You can browse different forums, and flip through your favs almost instantly...which is way way way better than waiting for a web page to load.
Not to mention.....your tapatalk app always opens to 'unread' posts first.
So easy....a caveman can do it.

I got mine for 2.99 and its the best money I've spent on my phone~ period.


Can't wait till its available!
