Just giving iPhone a go again after 5 odd years, one of the apps I loved on Android was the MyBroadBand app, but wow the iOS version is really poor, doesnt fit screen of my Xs, looks clunky, at least 3 generations behind the Android app, why no updated app for iOS?
 
And no one seem to care that for the past year and something you get duplicate threads.

With the last update the ads returned and there seems to be now way to turn that off, not even by offering money to solve the problem.

Then you can’t delete a post on the app.
 
The site is super smooth on mobile browsers, not sure why the app is even needed anymore. I also ditched tapatalk ages ago.
 
Just download the latest Tapatalk.

Likely the MyBB version doesn’t update with the same frequency.

Tapatalk works just fine for me here, but don’t have an XS.

By and large posting images is so much simpler and less hassle.

Also notifications.

Guess it’s fine if you only frequent one forum, but Tapatalk can’t be best if you use multiple.

I’d go so far as to say had it not been for Tapatalk I would have stopped using forums ages ago.

I don't really notice a difference. It works exactly the same on PC or mobile... click the upload image button and browse for image. What's different on your end?

It is better since Xenforo, but it’s still an unnecessarily complex “PC” interface with all sorts of extra crap nobody needs.

Tapatalk is a much more focused experience that breaks it down to the content only.

Browser doesn’t allow for image resizing either. Weren’t you one the people always complaining about that?

Dunno, but on PC I don't use the browser to resize either. I resize in another app then upload. Same on mobile so doesn't bother me.

Thing is I have it all in one contained app and it all happens in line so ease of use for Tapatalk is top class.

I actually never do it from my PC for this reason

Will a big post on PC and quickly add images via mobile.

I use Tapatalk and pay to not have the ads, best tool for this, IMO.

I paid for the "lifetime" VIP years ago, now they want me to start paying again, monthly.

Hard pass.

Are you sure you didn’t accidentally download the wrong app?

Using Tapatalk Pro that I’ve paid for many years ago as well and I’ve seen nothing like that.

Wait for it. It’s coming.
 
Speaking of versions though I note the Pro version is ever so slightly behind.

Doubt it makes a material difference though.
 
To whom should I address my question to get results?

I like using the app, don’t like Tapatalk (full version), the ads needs to go, and I would like to be able to delete my own post.

I’ll pay a fee to have it like that.
