geep Posted August 3, 2011 Share #1 Posted August 3, 2011 Every once in a while when viewing this forum I get a pop up notification saying there is an app for viewing this on an iPad.....anyone used it and their thoughts? It is a paid app...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Bob Posted August 3, 2011 Share #2 Posted August 3, 2011 There's an App called tapatalk for viewing on smartphones. Costs a few bucks, but cleans up the screen just for viewing topics and threads easily. Maybe they have one for the Ipad!

Freebird Posted August 3, 2011 Share #4 Posted August 3, 2011 OK....I THINK I just made a change so that Tapatalk will still work but you shouldn't get the annoying popups letting you know that it's available. You may have to clear your cookies for the change to take effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar Posted August 3, 2011 Share #5 Posted August 3, 2011 And what does it do for this site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted August 3, 2011 Share #6 Posted August 3, 2011 I've never used it. I installed it at the request of some of our members. The way I understand it is that it reformats the site to make it fit better and be easier to read on smaller screens such as used on phones.

Scooter Bob Posted August 3, 2011 Share #7 Posted August 3, 2011 And what does it do for this site? IMHO, it's worth the 2 bucks. No need to scroll and zoom to look at threads and such. I'll see if I can take a couple pics of the forum on my phone with Karen's camera tonight. Later, Scooter Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geep Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share #8 Posted August 3, 2011 iPhone I understand but what does it look like on iPad? Sized to fit or that goofy 2X zoom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAWildKat Posted August 3, 2011 Share #9 Posted August 3, 2011 I only have it on my android phone, but it works well, I can ready the site easily without messing with zoom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have an IPhone, by pressing the "Home" (big button at middle bottom of phone) and "Lock' (top right of phone) button at the same time, the phone will take a snap shot of the screen. The picture will be in your "Photos" folder (icon). This works on my IPhone 4.... Just a little trick I learned and like to pass along.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
