Suggestion A smartphone/Tablet APP

[Diver-6873]

Please … consider either contracting with developers to create an app or incorporate code to use something like TapTalk which is a furum aggregator. I understand this changes the business model but the web GUI for forums is very old, can be difficult to navigate for some and may keep some from regularly participating.

I’m showing it on my iPhone.

I'm on an Android.

It’s interesting, I can’t find an app in the App Store for either ScubaBoard or xenForo, and I’m not about to hit the “Install the app” button .

Be brave! Do it! Jump!
We all want to know what happens.

Interesting. This appears to be a link to the xenForo app which may no longer be available. xenForo is the board (forum) platform Scubaforum and many other communities run on. I’m guessing this is an old link - anyone using this “app” for this community?

However, it appears to be a new feature of XenForo...

Note the footnote:

1. Mobile device installation compatibility is currently limited to Android devices.

Something is not adding up.

There’s absolutely NOTHING wrong with the way SB appears on mobile. I access it solely on Safari on iPhone and iPad. No issues.

Tried TapTalk years ago. That app has cancer.

Personally I think the web interface is bloated with far too many advertisements, not just Scubaboard but also other community/user forums using this or similar software…. You are right that TapTalk has problems as well…

Don’t like the ads? Cough up for a membership or try an ad blocker.

@Thunder Struck What are you disagreeing with? Are you saying I am not on an Android?
