(I'm aware there is an older thread about this) Will the post-upgrade version of Bluelight be considering the addition of tapatalk / forum runner / etc. support or is this not going to be added in the foreseeable future?

As i'm sure most of you are aware the percentage of people with android / ipod or other smart-phones as their only access to the internet has risen greatly in recent years. I imagine support for these applications would greatly increase the accessibility of this board to such users. Thank you for your help, i've included relevant information below.


Tapatalk is a mobile solution for online communities, empowering discussion forums with mobile access since 2009. Are you a community owner? Try it now to see why so many forums adopted it to complement or replace their existing HTML-based mobile skin.

Forum Runner is a vBulletin, XenForo, myBB, and phpBB forum add-on that allows your users to access your forum at blazing fast speeds by using a native application installed on their mobile phone (Android or iPhone) or iPad/iPod Touch device. Forum Runner currently supports vBulletin v3.6.x, vBulletin v3.7.x, vBulletin v3.8.x, vBulletin v4.0.x, vBulletin v4.1.x, phpBB v3.0.x, XenForo 1.0.x, and myBB v1.6.x.

Can this be merged with the other mobile thread, our first priority on the mobile front will be getting a mobile skin back. Then yeah, other options like Tapatalk will be investigated... I know it's something we keep promising but we can only do so much.
 
tapatalk is free, and works seamlessly with vbulletin. please add. It will help users post on the forums when they aren't at their laptops. I imagine many of the users here aren't even at home most of the time.
 
there are two mobile skins you can access from the very bottom left corner of the screen

edit: we also don't want to use any app that costs our members money to access. taptalk is free for the forum to set up but users need to buy the app.

I already have tapatalk, so it's not a problem. It's easier to browse forums with than mobile skins. You would just be offering another option to let people use the forums more conveniently.
