The app stopped working a while ago so I upgraded the new one (vB). That experience is best forgotten, so I deleted it and restored the old one, it works but I can't log in. I get a username/password error when I supply the correct details.

Anyone have a solution for me?
 
There has been many reports of v1 not working anymore. I suspect they were using a time limited Tapatalk library. Solution: buy Tapatalk (it's has many small improvements so it's worth it). Just don't bother with the HD iPad version (it crashes a lot).
 
Tapatalk at $3 is a bit too much seeing as I have no other forums there. Plus it looks like myBB's support of tapatalk isn't guaranteed & could stop in future, it is their upgrade that broke the app to begin with. I hear some things don't work with it already.

R20 is to much for an app you use all the time?!

Tapatalk supports many bulletin board systems incl vBulletin which MyBB is using.

Their upgrade did not break it. Tapatalk works perfectly. The Tapatalk component they used must have been licensed for a time period and that has expired. They now use a different (and imo crap) component.
 
Well now that you put it like it doesn't sound so bad:p. I'll have to consider it - so myBB could stop tapatalk?
 
I wish they would go back to the older version. It was cooler. It had that "Participated" option which really rocked. The new one sucks.

You can write that on your tummy and wipe it off


I've responded to a thread on MyGaming and just wanted to post here too.

RPM and I debated the issue of Tapatalk versus vBulletin extensively, and unfortunately Tapatalk's process for paying for and updating white labeled apps is slow and tedious. That was the decider in the end.

As morkhans said, the bugs in Tapatalk at the time we made the decision, were a consideration, but it's been pointed out to me that those have been fixed. Just a pity the process of getting the updates was so time consuming.

The vBulletin app also allows us to moderate right from the app. Obviously there were trade-offs between the two apps and we're hoping vB catches up design-wise quickly.

Using the official apps from vBulletin seemed like the logical to do, but we'll see how their development goes. If someone out there offers a forum app that's significantly better than the official ones at a competitive price and that makes it easy for us to get updated builds I'm sure we'll take a look at it.
 
Aaah, so the one app caters for all 10 mods, and the other app caters for the users...
