Iphone/android App For Tff

[chrisbassist]

I'm interested too in how people find it on other devices. Androids and blackberries. Maybe SH could say what he thinks on his?

I'm on an Android based phone and just clicked on the new skin and it looks wicked.
Simple as that

I like it for mobile use as well, though since I am always logged on, I have to change the skin everytime I load. I like Blue justice for my laptop, but the mobile skin for my iPhone.

I agree - lovely skin for the iphone but i can't be doing with changing the skin everytime i either go on the computer or my phone. Is there a way round setting one for the phone and one for the computer, I suspect not? If not, then we need a application, so I go back to the suggestion of tapatalk

Yes there is. In fact I know of at least 2 ways. The simpler of the 2 I mentioned above.

ok, this is where I admit to having skim read your post as thought it was all techie

Tolak, are we ( of course that is the Royal WE and by that I mean you ) able to implement Chris' suggestion?

That's how I feel when people talk about salinity and specific gravity...

Actually, Blue justice has been loading better for me recently on my iPhone. I think the phone is getting used to it. I still do not do heavy posting with it, but it works alright for checking reports and PMs. I do the heavy posting on the laptop, otherwise, I think I will probably go blind. iPad would probably be perfect for this, but c'mon no imbedded webcam, no microphone, no usb? What were they thinking?

Well...tell me if I'm wrong. I tried the mobile skin on my BB. No problem. However, as soon as you change it back on the PC, it's back to Blue Justice on the BB. Translated, one will have to always change to the mobile skin when logging in to TFF on one's smartphone. SH

No, you're right. That is why I am learning to like Blue justice. iPhone will have to deal. It's not like I do a thousand things at once anyways.

 

[chrisbassist]

You're right at the moment.

Fortunately there's a simple solution...

Can we not just get tapatalk integration in place? I appreaciate the efforts with the skins but I (like many others I'd assume) use tapatalk for all the forums I want to catch up on with my phone...it is free and they provide plugins for this type of forum: http/www.tapatalk.com/en/plugin

Is there any reason you might have not to go with this?

this point from their site covers it all for me really:

[font="Arial][size="4"]Q: What's the point of this app if my members can access my site with mobile skin at no cost?[/size][/font]
[font="Arial][size="4"]A: We received a lot of feedback from users that they want a dedicated app on their smartphone. Most users are contented with the mobile skin or a standard web browser but some of them would appreciate a full-on native app on their phone. For example Tapatalk app allows user to upload photo directly from their phone to your forum as an image attachment. We are also rolling out Push Notification support so it helps your members to stay in touch with your forums while on-the-go.[/size][/font]

No body going to take tapatalk seriously? It is used for lots of other forums including the British Cichlid Association and Cichlids Forums...

It was what I asked for at the start of this thread, but seems that it was decided a skin was all that was needed. However, I would still like the app, I don't use the skin because you have to keep changing it everytime you swop from your phone to the pc which is a tad peeving! It actually means I view TFF less, which is a shame

Yeah, I tried using the skin option for a bit but it drove me potty...and as I use tapatalk for other forums and it's free to setup for the site admin I think it would be a great addition.....
