iPhone Forum App, who's interested in this mod?

[webmaster]

It has been brought to my attention on the Moderator side, that there are some iPhone apps out there that can read the forum if I installed the mod. Before I look into it further, I want to see who is interested and what demand there is out there for this feature.

So far I have researched two prospects:

1) Tapatalk http://www.tapatalk.com/
2) TouchBB Forum Browser http://www.messageforums.net/iphoneforumreader.php

Please vote in the poll.

As if I needed another excuse to check AW when I should be studying...

 

[mmx1]

Damn.....yes. No experience with either so I'll hold off on voting until I've had a chance to at least play with the free version.

I can currently surf the site via the Safari web browser on my iPhone.

A dedicated interface would be better.

I vote a resounding "YEA!" on the iPhone app. Yet one more excuse for me to get an iPhone as my post-deployment gift to myself...

I didn't realize it was a multi-choice poll. Whoops. I used the mod-powers to go back and vote "yes" and TouchBB...

No android love? Fuckin communists :icon_rage:icon_wink

Air Warriors iPhone app=a great idea.

Second the lack of Droid love. I got one for Christmas and already becoming hooked. Will any of those options easily carry over to those who don't feel like switching to ATT? Either way, still awesome if you can pull it off, even if I might not be able to use it. If I had an Iphone I would totally do it.

Only if it comes bundled with a breathalyser app to prevent drunk posts.

All you droid lovers have an option in the poll:

Tapatalk is an iPhone, Android, Nokia mobile application allows you to access your favorite online forums with iPhone native interface.

 

[mmx1]

Definitely Tapatalk.

AFAIK from the screenshots, TouchBB doesn't have a latest posts feature; you have to go forum by forum, which I never bother to do. I'd probably rather surf on safari since "New Posts" and the front page were my most often hit links.

Tapatalk does. And there's a free read-only version. It even lets you upload photos.


pssst.......Tapatalk comes in Android and Nokia flavors too.

 

[CommodoreMid]

Ah, didn't know that. Casting my vote now.

 

[PropAddict]

I voted Tapatalk, since my next phone might be a Droid.

Just out of curiosity, why can't we have both? Is it a licensing/$$ issue? (speaking of which, where's the "Donate" button?)

 

[CommodoreMid]

Ya, speaking of which, websan, if I see you around 30, can I just hit you up with some cash/check?
