Interesting, I'll give it a shot.

But @ $2.99 for the iPhone is it worth that vs just visiting through the browser? I tend to hit RRF on my computer and when I'm away for a while I use the website through Safari.

$2.99 is chicken feed.

I already use tapatalk for another railroad themed forum and the interface is so much better for mobile devices than viewing the same forum through Safari. Thanks for setting this up Bob!

It's worth it, otherwise I wouldn't have installed it! I don't get any of the money from that, it all goes to the developer. However, after trying the app on my photography forum for a couple months, I determined it was stable and works well.

By the way, this APP will work with more than just railroadforums. For starters, it works with modelrailroadforums. It also works with PNWphotos.com and lots of other forums as well. You only pay once, there is no fee for using it on another forum.

Thanks for doing this Ron.

There's 1000's of web forums using Tapatalk, not just RR-related ones.

Another similar app is called ForumRunner, also on the iPhone and maybe Android ?

Sorry, Ron had nothing to do with that.
Bob is the Board Owner and he adds all the cool stuff.
