Morning! There is an iPhone app called Tapatalk that makes reading boards such as this one much easier. I don't post often, but I read almost every day and would love to be able to read it in a more iPhone native format.

I am not affiliated with the app in anyway.  Another board I participate on just turned on compatability with Tapatalk and it's been great, so I wondering if we could get it here.

I am no techie so I have no idea what's involved- but my understanding from the other board is that it was really easy.

So, there you go!

So, any admin or moderator thoughts on the possibility?

Thanks for the suggestion. We're not familiar with Tapatalk, but we'll check it out and get back to you.

Best wishes,

This would be a great. It's quite difficult to browse the fora on iPhones.

Seriously, I tried to lick my own face.

I'd also love a way to more easily read the fora on an iPhone.

Slick spam--and something useful as well.

I don't think the OP is a spammer: s/he registered in 2006, and Tapatalk was founded in 2009.

Oh they are just getting good. Registering a few years in advance. Ha ha.

Not a spammer, just a lurker. Joined while researching grad schools and still check in occasionally. (I was in undergrad at the time, decided to take a few years off to work outside academia. Consequently don't have much relevant to post, but still find some of the discussion valuable.) Sorry to offend. :-(

I'm not a spammer. I lurk and read often, but don't post much. I was here before we went to user names when everyone could make up a new username for each post!

So, no. Not spam. A genuine question.

ETA: I'm the OP, so I assumed the spam question was directed my way.

I would like it too (and yes, labrat, tinyzombie was pointing out that you were a real person rather than a spammer.)

Oh, yeah- I understood what tinyzombie (love that username) was saying. I just wanted to clear it up that I assumed the comment was about me, not saroyan.

Still would love Tapatalk... btw... :)
