for me it gives an easier format to browse the forum than using the phone's web browser that has to load the entire page. It is a little buggy for me and doesn't have the best navigation in the world, but it works.

I still prefer using my laptop over tapatalk, but when I'm not on the PC, it works for me

Thanks, that is what I was wondering b/c mine is set up just like my lap/shop top PC.
So just to be clear l'd prob be better off w/out the "T-Talk" ?
Thanks again for your time helping my ignorant self out w/this tech.

There are two advantages to tapatalk. One is less data involved, so it loads faster. The second is that it is set up for a phone and takes some steps out of browsing the forum. So all in all, you save about 3/4 of the time over using the browser on the phone

We "may" be doing away with tapatalk in favor for a built in smartphone and tablet browser from the same people that wrote this software.

It's a bit of an investment but I think it will make the forum experience more seamless between platforms.

Also right now :xjtalk: doesn't get any revenue from tapatalk, they get it all.

I still need to read some reviews and make sure it works as promised.

Stay tuned.
