Forum app

[vk3jap]

Hey guys..Is there an app we can use on Android to view this forum..? Im using the web browser on my phone at the moment and it sucks! I've used Tapatalk before but that doesn't seem to be supported with this forum?

Any ideas..?

Thanks.!

No app, unfortunately this skin is not really mobile friendly. Something I wanted to fix for some time but I just need to find and dedicate the time to implement and then test it.

Honestly I would recommend at least a tablet to use a forum like this that has lots of content and sometimes media content, I find using a smartphone pretty hard even on some responsive and mobile friendly sites.

Thanks for bringing it up and expressing the interest, will definitely bump this on my TODO.

Hey Felix, I'm hearing you man but some things just can't be faught. I hardly use the full outer any more and I really want to get more involved in forums like this. I'd happily pay some $$ towards being able to have Tapatalk connectivity to the forum, or whatever makes the most sense. A lot of what goes on is just chat with the occasional quotes or links.. Perfect for mobile devices but yes I agree, a desktop is always better, when the option is there.

Is there anything I can do to help..? I've run phpBB etc before.

Was wondering Felix why you chose SMF..? I used phpBB.. many to choose from. Just interested if you don't mind.

No particular reason or I can't remember if there was. I know I looked at many platforms, phpBB was one of them. In the end it doesn't matter, it's the theme/skin that makes the difference. I am looking into making it mobile friendly. Thanks for offering to help.
