A dedicated app would be sweet. I would pay the $5 premium for it.

How many purchasers would it take I wonder to make it happen?

I bet Pelican could put one together that allows users to focus on forums such as this with alerts and whatnot.

May not be worth it. just drill down and get the most out of tapatalk.

It would be cool to have the peach rotor as an app icon though.

For those of us with iphones, having experienced the extremely high quality of app delivered information, its difficult to go back to trying to view info designed for a 12 inch screen on a 3 to 5 inch screen. I WANT IT TO THINK FOR ME!!! READ MY MIND SIRI!!!

We need apps for everything, dontcha know?

I do believe there are board reader programs out there. I dont have an iphone so I can't speak to them. I had a tapatalk type program on my phone that worked pretty well.

I think Pelican would best benefit from using one of the plugins for vBulletin that make it friendly in that way. I think such a thing exists.

I think a dedicated app for this specific forum would be kind of a waste, especially when there are other already in place solutions.

It's much easier to read on the tapatalk app which I am also posting from right now.

Yeah Jim, I'm wandering through tapatalk right now. So far I am just seeing random topics. I'll get it eventually.
