Any chance of getting a mobile app back?

[Charles4515]

Tapatalk released a new beta build (2118) of the iOS version of their app last night and fixed all the bugs I found in the previous beta. Works pretty good with Cruise Critic. I don’t know when they will be ready to release it as there could be other bugs as it would also have to work with thousands of other forums but it appears to me to be ready or close to ready. They would also have to get Apple App Store approval.

I still can't use Tapatalk to post, or to view "my" content.  I've logged out, switched users, and still no go.  (Android)

I just installed an update (not beta) to the Tapatalk Android app and now it crashes when I try to reply to a post.

Supposedly android version is up and the are working on the IOS version.

No joy for Android either. Taptalk may work but not CC itself.

CC works on the Beta IOS version. Only issue with last nights build is that it sometimes crashes on log in. Then opens on relaunch.

I and this thread are discussing the CC app (which I assume most posters are interested in), not the Taptalk app - as far as I know the CC app is read only and there's no Beta version.

For those who have succeeded in using tapatalk, does it exhibit the painfully slow page loads as the web version of cruise critic?

The CC app is a subset of Tapatalk so when they get it working on Tapatalk then it will be easy to make the CC app. I doubt they are doing betas of the CC app. The beta testing will be done on Tapatalk.

Again, most are not interested in Tapatalk - they want their trusty CC app back. Yes, I realize development is progressing, CC posting is working in Tapatalk and the CC app will be based on that, but for this thread, the only thing that matters is the availability of a working CC app. Until you can tell this audience when the CC app will be available, not sure how much they care about anything else.

I am not interested in most of what you post and won’t pay any attention to it. You don’t really care about the topic.

It is not painfully slow but it is slower than it was before the software change.

Of course I do - the CC app works much faster than the current web version when it comes to reading and posting. But like others I am not going to bother with using some other app to read/post at CC.

The other app is the same except for the name and the option to add other forums. The only reason not to get the other app is that it is not free. I do think that is a valid reason for not getting Tapatalk and if I didn’t use it for multiple forums I would probably only read and post with the Cruise Critic app if it were working.

Same here, that is what I used all the time. The one time i tried the CC app it seemed limited.

I haven't found anything exciting in the App yet.

I am used to the web version now and find 2 benefits over the app.

1- I can post any size of photo.

2-  If I make a mistake I can edit post, correct the mistake then save it back into the thread.

I agree with Biker,the stand alone CC app was all I used.

Did you use the old app? Before they upgraded CC the app had better features in terms of posting pics and following threads. I haven’t tried the new app yet as I have iOS. I paid for the Tapatalk app years ago but when CC set up the single app I used that exclusively. I deleted both off of my phone when CC was no longer supported. You can only appreciate the app if you are Mobil. If you are home most of the day than the computer is a better experience. Although I did follow along on my phone sometimes when at home watching TV.

 

My kids bought me a basic iPad for Christmas just so I would have a larger screen and a keyboard to follow CC while watching TV. They were noticing that my arms were all stretched out while reading threads on my phone. This mobile version is too small even with my progressive glasses and a new prescription.

I'm following this topic with interest as I, too, am having similar problems on Tapatalk.  Also the standalone Cruise Critic app won't accept my username/email & password to log in.

 

I've posted here so I can get notifications of what's being posted on the subject and to keep up-to-date with developments.

I'm surprised the mods let this thread live here this long - nothing to do with RCI.

There is no CC app any more, so you may as well stop trying to log in to it. ☹

[Beamafar]

Before, it was indicating that it no longer existed and that the website was now more "mobile friendly" but now it's working just fine as long as I don't try to log in.
