I agree about Tapatalk. Isn't there some way they can enable access to the forums through the A/C app.? Having to open the website on a browser and drill down to your forums to me seems old school. There's got to be a better way.

The AC app is basically the Tapatalk app.😔

This definitely is an annoying issue and I haven't been visiting the forums as much since the connectivity has broken. Using a web browser on my phone is not the best way.

I agree, A high-tech company should have no trouble fixing such an issue. I suspect many will just go to Reddit or other venues until it's fixed. I used to enjoy XDA forums via Tapatalk. In that case, they decided to divorce from Tapatalk and created their own app., Fine, but it was never the same and impossible to navigate on a phone via the app. I'm a retired IT manager with many years of experience and I really don't see what the big problem is to create an app with a link to forums that will open to your subscribed sub-forums. No one wants to drill down through a dozen menus to get to their subscribed forums. If A/C no longer wants to use Tapatalk, they already have an app with a forum link already established. Either put pressure on Tapatalk to fix the issue quickly, or establish a working link in the app to the A/C forums. As one supervisor told me many years ago, "don't tell me what you're working on, tell me what you've accomplished."

I have been working with Tapatalk support and they have identified the issue as a problem with Android Central's plug in. Tapatalk is now working with the forum owner and hopefully it will be resolved shortly.
Yes, we've been working with them to pinpoint the problem since it stopped working. It's an odd/unique problem because we have other sites set up in 100% the same way and the plugin is working fine there, so it makes no sense that it's not working here on Android Central. Alas, I understand it's frustrating but we're doing what we can to get it back.

I have to ask...is this still in progress? I try it everyday on the app, but I always fear that someone in fact fixed it, but I have to uninstall, reinstall and don't know, haven't heard.
