closer to 85% for accessing via PC or Laptops. Though there is the odd time i will access it via the browser with my Iphone.

Thanks guys! This is all for the new mobile skin I'm developing for the forum. Keep voting (if you haven't already)!

I was going to include tablets but they're not really relevant to the info we're looking for, since they're sort of 'in between' the other two options.

Thanks again!

Exactly. TapaTalk has many disheartening issues, security being a big one.

I know on your end the updates are horrible.... in some cases you have to scramble to patch a poorly written one when it tanks a live forum. Is the case with the SMF side of tapatalk, not sure if vBulletin is much better.

Yea everything about them is just, bad. Their website is terrible, and the last couple times I had to open a support ticket, it took them a minimum of 5 full days to get back to me. Combine that with them sharing what seems to be about 0.1% of the revenue they make from ads (off of OUR content) with Admins, and the high possibility that the Chinese Government has access to our info, it just makes more sense to develop our own mobile platform.

Xenforo seems to be a good forum platform and I think it even has a built-in mobile set up. Years ago, when VB was in the 3.XX stage, it seemed to be the best platform at that time. I've lost touch since I quite building forums back in 2010.

If I were to switch softwares, XF would be the one, mostly because of the mobile platform. But if you ask me, VB3 is still one of the best forums ever made. Super stable and reliable, and it doesn't hurt that I know it like the back of my hand. 😁 The newer VB versions don't impress me much.

Mobile is difficult to search

I voted computer 100%. When I use the mobile and try to do a search, the search box disappears when the keyboard shows up and I can't enter text. I have to use the advanced search to make it function.

Mobile. Usually I’m on my iPhone 6S Plus, occasionally on an Amazon Fire HD 8, but almost never on my laptop.
