Kawana Posted May 16, 2012 Posted May 16, 2012 Does anyone access the forums with tapatalk? One of the main reasons I've fallen off with KIC is that it's not easy to access with a mobile phone (to me anyway) and I just heard about tapatalk, which would seem to make things easier. Is KIC set up for tapatalk access? Thanks for the help. Quote
Oldiesmann Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 http://www.tapatalk.com In short, it allows you to browse/post on forums from your Android, Blackberry or iOS device. It's free for forum admins (you have to install a plugin for it to work with your forum) and $2.99 for users. Quote

KIfan1980 Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 On my iPhone, I just use the mobile version without much problem - although there is always a note at the bottom about the free ip board app for iPhone. Quote
Oldiesmann Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 If it were set up, you would see a notification about Tapatalk when accessing the forum from a mobile device. If you have FTP access to the forum directory, you can install it yourself in just a few minutes. Register an account at tapatalk.com, then click "Activate Forum", choose the forum software and follow the instructions. Quote
JTW Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 I'm not grave digging just to grave dig here... I was wondering about Tapatalk and did a search of the forums before posting a new topic and I found this. I've searched the Tapatalk forum database and did not find KIC under any criteria I tried. I'm assuming that means it's not enabled. Would it be possible to do so for those of us who access the forums primarily from mobile devices? Quote
Dane Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 I'll look into it. Invision was promoting a branded application for android that I was holding out for but seems to be on the backburner for them. Quote
jcgoble3 Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Obviously my post was lost because I was slow getting the new server, so I'll comment again: I would love to have KIC available on Tapatalk. I already use Tapatalk for another forum I'm on, and it works wonderfully, much better than the stock mobile version here. If you could get Tapatalk set up, I'd greatly appreciate it. Quote

Oldschool75 Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 Just installed on my phone. This is awesome 2 Quote
milesharrison Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 Just installed it as well! Looks promising. 1 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 Wow just did too and I'm actually impressed...I'll stick to using this. So far it hasn't pushed notifications like I thought it would but I like the setup, minus the lack of a new content button, I had to "read" the whole forum just to get unread to display recent material. I usually had my new content to display all new within 24 hrs 1 Quote
Oldschool75 Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 There is a button on the top right to mark all unread as read. Quote
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 So glad to see ki central on tapatalk. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Tapatalk 4 Beta Quote
KI FANATIC 37 Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 I need to go buy a Google Play Store card and download it! Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 There's a free version that I'm using now Quote
jcgoble3 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Yes, you can currently get the public beta of Tapatalk 4 for free. That's what I have on my phone. Quote
KI FANATIC 37 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 When your using it can you reply, and if so how. Quote
KI FANATIC 37 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Nevermind. I figured out how to do it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 4 Beta Quote
markhudson17 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Took me a few minutes to figure it out as well. Sent from my HTCEVOV4G Quote
milesharrison Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 ^ there's generally a reply box at the bottom. Tap that and type your message. Then click send. If you want to quote someone, tap the header of someone's post (where their username is) and tap "quote". Then again, it may be different for me because I have the free tapatalk 1 and am on iPhone, which may not relate to what you're experiencing at all. Edit: glad you figured it out! Quote
KI FANATIC 37 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 I know now. I wasn't signed in to my KIC account. Haha Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 4 Beta 1 Quote
Titan Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Finally I can get on KIC with my slow phone. Thanks Dane! Sent from my LG-LS840 using Tapatalk 4 Beta Quote
KI FANATIC 37 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Just a little tip for everyone. Yiu might want to go to settings and change your signature. I can see how it can get annoying quickly. I just figured that out. 1 Quote
jcgoble3 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 It works! As for the signature, this is the one I use on a Star Wars forum, and it appears that Tapatalk won't let me set different signatures for different forums. So y'all will have live with me flaunting my Star Wars fandom. Transmitted from Wild Space via my datapad's DROID brain Quote
