What is Tapatalk?

Tapatalk is a vBulletin mod that allows your users to browse your forum using a native mobile application. Tapatalk supports iPhone, Android, BlackBerry, webOS and Windows Phone 7. It provides super-fast access to your forum and allows your members to participate more in your forum while on the go.

Why Tapatalk?

• Only one MOD installation to support all mobile devices including iPhone, Android, WebOS, Windows Phone 7 and BlackBerry.
• Forum API - build your own app or server-side integration with well-documented Tapatalk API, enjoy quality forum app from third-party developers, beyond what Tapatalk internal team can offer.
• Well-tested. This MOD has been installed in over 23000 forums, including some of the very large forums with 2 million members with over 10,000 online users. This app is designed to scale
• Tapatalk allows you to put your sponsored banner into the app so you don't lose potential revenue **NEW**
• Analytics support - you get too see how many users are accessing your forum from the Tapatalk app

If so, what needs to be done for both mods to be installed?

psychobike, nothing need to be done at the serverside if you had the MOD already installed.
however if you (or your members) have a nokia device (or if your members have it), you can follow the above instruction to get the nokia client installed.

We are working on it. I have been asked many time the timeline of BB - it's hard to commit a timeline but judging from our experience of Nokia and iPhone it should be ready by end of December or early January.

you never know! the Nokia app is based on WRT technology which can be ported to Windows Mobile and Blackberry Storm in a reasonably short period of time. Of course it won't happen until we got the Nokia app UI sorted out - it is quite different experience from Android and iPhone.

We are getting there...

Great work, thanks for all the hard work on this.
