Default Tapatalk?

Is this site tapatalk enabled? I just downloaded it to my iPhone, and can't find the forum.

No it is not and it's not going to be. We are looking at other options. There are serious security issues with Tapatalk so it won't be used here.

What are the security issues? Are they on the user side or forum side? I just started using it so I'm curious about it. Maybe I will quit using it.

Thanks

Wondering the same thing. There are thousands of forums on tapatalk. This is the only one that is not.

The server side plug in for tapatalk requires admin access. I dont know much about it, but there's an argument to be made that that is a bad design from a security perspective.

Well....I never thought I'd see the day I might recommend
anything to do with smartphones, but times change and I've
changed with it. I do believe the addition of Tapatalk would
be the best thing this forum could do for it's members. I
recently joined the Android family myself and have latched
onto the Tapatalk App, man it works. There are hundreds
of forums that have been using it for a long time with no
problems at all, in fact I've found it to be a big draw in
bringing in new members. Having the ability to search in
forums, post pic's, change settings and a myriad of other
uses, all from a tool you carry in your pocket makes perfect
sense to me...are you listing Terry?

Admin access to the server? Or just to the forums? If the server, then yeah, that's kinda stupid. If the forums, then I'd consider that a security *feature*.
