Why can't I use Tapatalk?
-
On the previous version of the Iron Heart forum, some users may have been familiar with an app called Tapatalk.
This application allowed you to access the Iron Heart forum outside of the web browser on your phone.
Around 12 months ago, we were made aware of security issues and vulnerabilities with Tapatalk, as it has become a little dated as far as apps go (originally designed with use on Blackberry) so this expedited the process somewhat for us to move to a new forum platform.
One of our top priorities when designing the new forum was making it mobile-friendly, as the previous version bordered on unusable.
The new version of the forum is fully responsive on mobile devices and integrates seamlessly with common smartphone functionality such as posting images from your device. This removes the requirement for 3rd party applications and keeps the forum environment in one place, ultimately more secure.
I appreciate the previous utility of Tapatalk may have become familiar to many, so there will be some adjustments but I am confident the new platform, once familiar, will be a far more enjoyable user experience.
If, for convenience, you would like to add the IH Forum to your home screen on your mobile device, here are a couple of links on how to do so.
Any questions please fire away!

Ok. Deleted Tapatalk and added to my Home Screen. How do we get around logging in every time?
