    I actually just use Safari on my iPhone.
    I get thread updates via email, and the browser supports picture uploads without problems.
    Can't imagine Android being any different, but no experience there.

    I use Tapatalk from my iPhone and am able to post pictures. I don’t think Tapatalk alone is the problem.

    Just start using the mobile site. There's no real reason to use Tapatalk IMO, especially when the admins have put so much effort into the mobile site.

    If Tapa's broken now I think we'll just kill it rather than fix it, that app is just a disease anyway and the mobile site is how the majority of people use it on phones

    But for posting an image with Chrome@android the mobile site gives me only the URL possibility - is that correct so? Corrected : saw now the other image button below. Thanks


    Thanks dsio

    Definitely an issue with the site with Tapatalk today. The site name is now appearing in Tapatalk as "0000000000" instead of Omega Forums for me.

    I actually enjoy using tapatalk because it shows me the new threads with notifications. Has it been disabled?

    I think Trev's turned it off now, we won't be re-enabling it until the company sorts themselves out

    Ah that’s unfortunate. What issues did they have apart from uploading photos?

    I always go to the TAT app and then realise that the OF actual webpage on safari is way nicer to use and looks great also!!

    Its a long list, but basically its a vector for fraud, security breaches, associates us with illegal websites and is generally poorly run. We've complained endlessly but they couldn't care less, they just keep doing stuff without our permission.

    That's a pitty. I used the app every day to visit and have an overview of multiple watch forums at the same time. For the VIP (paid) users it's a very friendly app without advertising.

    Hope they will fix things for the OF soon.

    It won't matter, we're requesting they remove us for good. As I've said above the company and their product are awful, we've not wanted anything to do with them for years the fact that they screwed it up today just gives a good line in the sand.

    Tapa was handy but if it’s not secure then you have little choice.

    It’s a shame to see Tapatalk support is no more. For me as a user, it simply enabled me to be more effective: surf more forums and post more.

    However, I didn’t know about these issues, so of course I can understand that why the decision was made. I hope Tapatalk finds their groove again... :unsure:

    OF is by far and away the best form software I've seen in years of forum following for cars, cameras, stocks and now watches.
    My only gripe is I can't seem to figure out the notification when I get one it doesn't show me what it is.
    Other than that I enjoy using it a lot more than others. Very clean and uncluttered and super easy to use.

    If you have a notification, click on latest, and then where it says "Alerts" on the row below click on that, you'll have a list of all of your alerts and what they are
