We've finally gotten around to implementing Tapatalk, apologies for the delay. We'll let it test for a few weeks before making a permanent decision.

Quote
Tapatalk is a mobile app for smartphones that makes accessing forums easier on a smaller screen by dispensing with all content apart from the actual posts.

You can get the app from the Android / IOS appstore for £1.99.

Ahh, Mr Admin's added a description for you Glenn.

As well as the native Tapatalk client, on Android there is another (free!) one you can use called Convo. Just loaded it up and it's looking good.

Makes the forum look a bit less fugly (before and after pics.
   

Zap this to get Convo

On IOS it is fine until you click the avatar, then you see the alternate name which in Chucks case, is ChuckMcB.

Weird, not sure what's going on there. Blackberry must be picking up personal account names as public screen names.

Yes, that would be a bit sh1t (as Kyle says) it's pulling the Username, rather than the display name....I always thought the Username was a private 'setting' I know I can only see my own.

Seems the offical BB app is not under active development anymore: link :(

Kyle: which device&app are you using? (Oh yes, iOS..sorry)

Official android app doesn't allow karma...nor does it allow you to mark a thread as unread..

A few minor issues - but on the whole I'm pretty pleased with how it's looking.

If you're an Android user you can add a direct shortcut to ni wild to your home screen. Go to the add widget menu, add "tapatalk forum" and pick NI wild. I have it a wee drawer for two tap access:
