Maine Coon Forum gets better on Mobile!

**dave** · 2nd November 2011, 08:21 PM

Anyone who wants to view the forum on their mobile be it Android, or iPad or Blackberry can now do so that bit easier.

I've set the forum up to work with TAPATALK the mobile app which lets you use forums natively rather than having to access them through your devices smaller screen.

For those who haven't heard of it, you would need to first download the tapatalk app from whatever 'store' you use, e.g. Android Market/Apples AppStore. Then you will be able to connect to the maine coon forum in the Aquariums & Animals / Pets category.

Regards,

Dave

At the risk of sounding silly, what benefit do we get from this download Dave? I can view the forum on my blackberry and then click to make it 'viewable'. Is there anything I'm missing out on before paying the £3 or £4? The description from the Apps World is not very clear.

£3-4 on blackberry?

Yeah thats more than the app on Android @ 1.99.

As a native application, it uses an interface native to your device, so the controls will be familiar as opposed to viewing it as a web page which is really designed for the bigger screens. Can't say for certain on Blackberry but on Android/iphone you get notifications show up for any PM's, or threads you're subscribed to in the same way you get notifications for an incoming SMS for example, which is a good feature.

And you're paying for the app, not the one forum so if you tend to use more than one forum, then it can really make browsing/interacting much easier with multiple forums.

Thanks for answering my question

Yes it seems a lot of the apps are more expensive on the blackberry! So I guess it's a bit like the notifications from facebook which appear in your 'messages' along with everything else. I will give it a go in that case.
