I played with this a good bit and demo'd it on a few other sites. A few gripes: - There's a "free" version of the app and a $2.99 version app. While $2.99 is cheap in relative terms, it's also a little above average on app cost. But this biggest gripe is the "free" version spams you with pop-ups prompting you to buy the paid version.
- If you access a forum that has Tapatalk loaded and you don't have the app installed it throws up this annoying pop-up every time you return to the main forum page. Initially I thought this only happened for iPhones, but it's happening on Crackberrys too judging from reports on the 'net. If I don't want the pop-ups I can't opt out of them, which makes me not want to buy their software.
- PHP 5.2.2 was released in the first part of May. The server this forum resides on runs this version of PHP. Talkatalk doesn't work with PHP 5.2.2 (currently).
I'll revisit this in a few weeks to see if they have fixed the 5.2.2 issues, but the pop-ups are almost a dealbreaker for me.
