An app? I'm sure you can just view it on a forum viewer. What kind of phone or device are you using?

iPhone... It would be so useful to have an app like Facebook, or Twitter that send push notifications to all subscribed threads or pm's.

The forum could be set up to use Tapatalk but I'm not familiar with the pricing structure for such set up.

100# agreed with OP. I use a iPhone myself and I'm always on the go, so it would be nice to nice have a app for that purpose.

Just came across another forum talking about a mobile app and they're debating whether to use Tapatalk or ForumRunner. Never heard of ForumRunner but here is their website:

http://www.forumrunner.net/


This is what the other forum listed as pros/cons for each:

TapaTalk Pros and cons:
Support has seemed scarce with trying to contact them
They are based in China, we have a language barrier.
$1000 for the initial application, no source to add any edits, analytics etc.
$35/hr for the additional above, so anything above $1000 is possible
No idea if moderation is possible or to what extent


ForumRunner Pros and cons:
Support has been frequent with answering questions.
US based, makes it easier to for us to contact support
No source, but has the same features
Any privileged user can Moderate with ease.
Seems you can do everything TapaTalk can.

I know XDA and many other forums use Tapatalk. Personally, I prefer going straight to the website on my phone browser because the Tapatalk layout just bugs me as I can't zoom in/out and also the phone browser displays images correctly which include GIFs, etc. Then again I don't use the subscription notification or PM notification so that's probably why its not a necessity for me.

Best to leave it all in one topic so all questions can be addressed there. Feel free to continue the discussion in the link above. Thanks
