Tapatalk is the shittest thing I have ever used on any mobile device ever.

Cannot understand any complaints. Works absolutely fine. Never notice the adverts. Genuinely cannot think of a single issue with it

Tried tapatalk and didn't like it.
Instead very happy with the full browser version on iPhones and iPads.
NOT an age related thing - teenagers in the fold, like the browser version too.
Contrary to what someone else said, the adding of web links, videos and images is dead easy using the browser version.

Tried Tapatalk but wasn't that keen on the display layout, the fact it wouldn't do polls on mobile and tablet was a pain, and couldn't always get it to refresh to latest content, so I've gone back to browser, and all is fine. Using a slightly ancient Macbook.

I always use the browser on my iPad. One thing I've noticed though is I can't ever seem to upload pics anymore. Maybe I'm doing wrong though

Can't remember why but I binned Tapatalk ages ago
Me. Settings. Signature.
Turn it off.
Takes about 3 seconds
I think the Pro version is now free and is a lot less cluttered and very simple to use. I really can't see why anyone wouldn't find it simple.
I haven't voted in a poll yet as I didn't realise there was one! One of the very few drawbacks, but again no big deal as you can quickly switch to web view if you really want to vote. I do that for the predictions threads.

It's a demo of the mobile responsive theme that I intend to put on here.
I use Tapatalk exclusively (iOS if that makes any difference) - it is easier for general usage and for anything it can't do, you're a tap away from reverting to the standard web view.
The responsive theme I am proposing on using should improve all of that for you.
Just giving a pointer as to the proposed look and feel, yes.
The responsive theme will automatically size itself based on your device - desktop, tablet or mobile. The NSC mobile template has to be manually selected and most people don't know it's even there.
They've ramping up the adverts on the free version and they're generally pretty low quality ads. I am not able to control any of it.
It's buried in settings. Again, that most people don't turn it off, or don't know how to turn it off is an annoyance. I think it's quite a hostile imposition from Tapatalk.
The browser access would be considerably better. I'd not make the change if it made mobile access worse.
Not sure I get what you mean. Happy to try and help if I can though.
I'd do some testing prior to rollout to ensure things like that are covered. Interestingly images on Tapatalk is another one of my gripes. Not the ease of uploading - as you say, it's easy. But Tapatalk only allows hosting of the images with them which, again, means loss of control. They could pull all those images out of NSC without warning.
Interesting point on a dark theme. I could look to add that as well.
Is this partly for monetization reasons? I have no worries about that, of course, it's your playground
I only use Tapatalk, but there are a couple of things that I've noticed recently.;
1) I usually browse via Tapatalk on Android in 'unread' mode, but a fair amount of times when I refresh, it pulls up blanks, even when I know there are threads/posts which are unread.
2) Tapatalk discloses your 'real name' to everyone else if you're a subscriber.. I'm guessing that this is your Tapatalk name, as oppose NSC?
Nothing to do with monetization - I've detailed a few gripes in posts above, but they all come under the umbrella of conceding control to a third party. If these stats are representative, very few people use Tapatalk anyway.
I largely agree as an NSC user - it's all I use, but with regards to NSC administration, it's becoming more of an issue for me.
I've tried it twice and it wasn't very nice.
On two different phones, one entry level cheapo and the other much more powerful. I prefer the NSC desktop experience.

Tapatalk is very poor. I have never seen a poll. To be honest, I really don't know why I use I...

Oh, when you reply to anything, you get auto replies not only from the thread but the whole big board. You have to disable not only the thread you are replying too, but the whole bloody thing.
