Tapatalk worth it?

Postby Johnny » May 21st, 2012, 8:01 pm

Wasn't sure where to post this.

Is tapatalk worth getting? I have an iPhone and my extreme so would annoyingly need to buy twice.

I am thinking on the iphone it may make things easier but on the extreme is there any advantage or is it best to use the website?

Keep seeing it mentioned when going to various forums and have ignored the messages up to now.

Okie dokey may give it a go on the phone then. Android version looks better than iPhone one though so hope it's as good.

Shame it's not free any more :(

Like it though. I am just going to have to post more often to make the £1.99 worth it! :)

I use it rarely on my Android phone and find it useful for small screen devices (under 4" screen size) but for tab's of 7" like the Excel or 9.7" Extreme - I personally don't see the point and find using a web browser a much better option.

Really? I find it quicker using an Android browser - maybe I need to update my tapatalk app, but I still prefer the greater detail you get with the browser, unless its a small screen then tapatalk is better.
