    Great app! Here's my suggestions on how it could be better!


    Correctly view BBCode tables

    Convert emoticons to images

    Option to either reduce text size or remove post text from the list of threads (hope that makes sense!)

    Lastly, maybe an option for notifications for subscribed threads (you could choose this for individual subscriptions)


    Just to clarify, I'd like these options, but even without them, Tapatalk is still a godsend!

    Thanks Ed.

    Are you using Droid / N1 with larger screen? Some of the common complaint are the topic-list text appear too big in these devices.

    add support for os native auto-capitalization and auto-correct. these features are built into the android os. totally dont understand why developers cannot implement standard features into their applications. espexiallu when you ask us to pay for this drivel. in any other app the first word is capitalized and when i hit the spacebar after typing a word the predictive text should take over and correct typing mistakes. i am not manually fixing anything un this oost to ahow what i am talking about. please fix these glaring shortcomings if you want this app to be taken more seriously. i like the idea but am not impressed with the implemetation.

    First off let me say that the idea of the app is brilliant, just seems to have some flawed logic in certain places.

    When entering text for a post the editor is super flakey. Impossible to scroll up or down to where you want to go while the on-screen keyboard is up. Even if you take the on-screen away it is still insanely difficult to navigate within the editor window. Also need the ability to Post/Send the update to the forum through the Menu, the Send button at the top is horrible, especially with the previously mentioned scrolling issue. Also noticing that when I read a thread, close it or back out it get marked as read. If I then leave the application and then come back it is marked as unread again even though nothing new has been posted.

    Seriously lets fix the functionality issues before adding new stuff please. If the app was free add new stuff till you drop, but since we have to pay give us some fixes and make the app usable, so we don't feel like we wasted our money on yet another crappy app that no one ever fixes.

    - Lack of support for Android native auto-complete (its there but it doesn't select the proper word, or any word for that matter)
    - Lack of support for Android native auto-capitalization
    - Fix the scrolling issues in the editor
    - Add ability to send through editor menu, eliminate the Send button at the top of the editor which is impossible to see if the keyboard is up.
    - Fix the read/unread functionality so that it works correctly.
    - Fix the All Posts & Unread radio buttons at top of thread screen, as they don't really seem to display anything different.

    We need a text size adjustment. I am in the over-forty crowd and I need to be able to increase the text size. Should be something we can configure.

    Thank you for all your suggestions and we'll absolutely take care of all. One question about read/unread issue you mentioned. Since we support several forum systems, can you give us which forum has this problem?

    I think about two months of this post we have managed to fixed most (if not all) the issues expressed here. :D
