    Question Using Tapatalk with the forums?

    Hi!

    Is it possible to make the forums compatible with Tapatalk Forum App - Empowering Forum Junkies on-the-go ?

    It would be a HUGE benefit for users on mobile devices (iOS and Android)!

    Thanks!

    Ok, thank you for your answer! And, who knows, maybe in the future it will be made possible... :-)

    How about using NewsTap (iOS only) to access the forums via NNTP? I use
    it and it works great!

    Information on using NNTP is @

    Just adding to this as well, there are a couple of Android-based
    newsreaders as well in the market. I've not tried them extensively (and
    don't have them installed at the moment), but chances are they'd do a
    good enough job, too.

    Thanks for the NewsTap tip! I'll be using that for a while and see how I like it... It seems alright so far.
