Post by: SpAmRaY on Tue, 06 January 2015, 18:58:22: So just a friendly public service announcement.

Don't upgrade to the newest tapatalk it absolutely sucks, thankfully I found an older apk and downgraded.

Hard to use a PC when chilling on the couch or doing things around the house.

Post by: Touch_It on Tue, 06 January 2015, 21:37:55: Tp for iPhone. Terribad. At this point all I'm asking for is it not crash when I try to browse sub forums.
Title: Re: PSA: Don't Download New Tapatalk It Sucks
Post by: bueller on Tue, 06 January 2015, 21:41:12: Awful. Go take a look at their reviews as well, we're not the only ones that think so. I'm getting half tempted to just make a GH forum reader for Android, hate all the forum apps out these days.
Title: Re: PSA: Don't Download New Tapatalk It Sucks
Post by: sethk_ on Tue, 06 January 2015, 21:42:18: On iOS I updated and it is so awful, you can hardly navigate forums anymore. And the holiday logo is a bit too late.

Post by: intelli78 on Tue, 06 January 2015, 21:44:49: They really messed up their app. Soo many negative reviews, and they respond to each one with "Want to chat about it? click this link..." Wtf? No, no one wants to "chat about it." :))

For real. Honestly if so many people hate it I don't know why they don't just roll back to the previous version and admit defeat.

Yes plz. Thinking positive thoughts.

Post by: Belfong on Tue, 06 January 2015, 23:49:40: I hate it as well and did not hesitate to leave a one star review.

I don't need to see trending topics which is not even relevant. I read that the reason they are doing this is because they want to build into a Facebook and Twitter like feed due to recent investments they received from VC.

I think all forum should just disable this plug in. That would teach them.

every social software starts off great, giving the user what they want.. then the advertisers come in with their millions of dollars.. and ruin it for everybody..

Post by: bueller on Wed, 07 January 2015, 00:01:52: Honestly the thing I hate most is that stupid header panel that auto-hides and shows itself on scroll. Bunch of pictures that have no relevance to the forum and it takes up more than half the screen, what a waste of real estate. Whoever did the UX work on this should be ****ing shot. I also hate that there is no way to get a smaller preview of each topic, I can only fit two and a half previews on my screen at any one time.

Post by: Belfong on Wed, 07 January 2015, 00:04:08: In the iPhone 6 Plus, with such a big screen, I can only see 3-4 topics at a time, compare to the old ones where it showed 6 topics. No wonder I have been missing CC sales :P :P :P Blame Tapatalk! PoS!

clack people are not right in the head....

there is still so much left to innovate in the key switch genre.. so those clacks won't fit future switches.. it's a really silly investment.
