Paul99354 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I just purchased an inexpensive iPhone application for reading forums. Is there any chance that you can install and activate the Tapatalk plugin for the BE forum? Tapatalk is a forum app on the iPhone, Android, BlackBerry (free) and Nokia (free). Tapatalk Forum App provides super fast on-the-go forum access to any vBulletin, IPBoard, phpBB or SMF forum that has activated our Tapatalk plugin.

Flexmoney Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Can you let me know of another shooting forum that is using it? We'd need to check it out....before even asking Brian to look into it with the forum software folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLM Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I don't know of any shooting forums but a lot of mobile device forums are native. Geekhack, a keyboard forum, is one you could look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefcs5 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 i have used it on one of my forums. it will work with this soft ware and isnt hard to install at all. i was going to do it for my other forums too but any one with a windows 7 or later. android 2.1 or later or an iphone dont really need it. but for some other fones it works great.

BritinUSA Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 IPB has it's own free APP for reading these forums. It works great, I use it on my iPod Touch when I don't have the mac handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul99354 Posted December 28, 2010 Author Share Posted December 28, 2010 Can you let me know of another shooting forum that is using it? I currently use Tapatalk with Open Carry Forum. I browsed some of the other "Shooting & Firearm" related forums listed in the Tapatalk app and saw 109 forums listed. To be fair, many of these were for airsoft or paintball and some were in foreign languages. Here are a few examples of what I would consider the more relevant sites: northeastshooters.com www.thehighroad.org m4carbine.net xdtalk.com northwestfirearms.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff686 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Is Tapatalk better than IPB? I don't mind spending $2.99 for it, if it is good. However, I've been disappointed by a lot of apps, and felt they were a waste of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
