    How many people use it I find this site slow with ipad. How well does it work?

    I don't have exact numbers but quite a few use it including myself. Tapatalk works well but the interface takes some getting used to.

    I'd say a fair amount use it on mobile devices. I use it on my phone. On my PC, I just access the site via a browser.

    You can look at the users online via the link below & see if they are on tapatalk. They have a "T" to the far right. (At least I believe that is how you read this data).
    Just eye-balling it & spitting in the wind.. I'd say 20-30%.

    New Android version of Tapa talk today. I'm not sure I like it. I can't figure out, for instance, how to see which sub-forums have new posts without going into each sub-forum. Also, unread posts used to be bolded subjects, so it was easy to see them at a glance. Now, instead, is a little blue mark along the left side of each post, which is harder for me to see. Finally, there are less posts visible on the screen at a time, so more scrolling/swiping is necessary, and each screen is much busier and therefore a bit more difficult for me to ingest.

    Compared with the desktop version I am not a fan of tapatalk. Backing out of the donating members forum sets me back to the home page.

    I tried it on both my kindle fire and my Galaxy. Couldn't get it to work on either one. Blah!
    ...it could be, however, that I am technologically challenged!

    I like it for a "quick" look at what's going on but if I've got time to really dig in and read/ post I would much rather be using the full site.

    I typically install their updates but I think I'll hold off based on this & other reviews.

    I had the same issue, did you try updating it, fixed it for me... although I'm not too keen on the update
