This is a free mod for forum administrators and allows quick and easy browsing of the forum on smart phones.

The app is free to Apple and Nokia users, and is cheap to buy on Android (I paid £1.87 for it).

I think this would be awesome.

The only niggle is that for anybody visiting the forum from a smart phone without the mod will get a prompt that they can get it, but it's easily bypassed.

With 3G or wireless I get the forum in all its glory at normal speeds.

It is a free mod for the admin to install, but then like anything else, they periodically issue updates so it's something else to dealt with. The key thing is whether it would really get used enough to justify it. For the end user there are two versions, a freebie browser app so you can view the forum but, for most smartphone users you have to pay to buy the app that lets you post. I've had it installed over on NTHW and am likely to remove it. Despite many of my members having smartphones and other gadjets, none have gone for the paid app so it just get's in the way.

I personally think its compliments busy forums in this day and age. I love Tapatalk and use it daily for a few forums.
