What do you use to interact with Android Central Forums?

[TraderGary]

I've often wondered what software and hardware the folks on the Android Central forums use to interact with the forums.

On my Pixel 2 XL I use the Android Central app in dark mode.

On my Windows 10 computer I use "forums.androidcentral.com" in my Chrome browser.

What do you use and why?

I use forums.androidcentral.com regardless of platform. The mobile apps (Android Central and Tapatalk) don't offer some of the features I use frequently (like canned responses in the AAQ forum).

I use the Android Central Forums app most of the time, being Tapatalk my second choice. I only use the mobile site for very specific things. Oh, dark mode on the three of them

 

[Nauga]

My desktop PC or iPad as a distant second because I hate "typing" on a phone.

Tapatalk - phone

Chrome - PC

Android app is how I spend 99% of my time here. I use my desktop almost daily for web usage, but haven't been to this website in months.

I use Tapatalk. I have a weird thing with my Pixel 2 XL whereby it doesn't always connect properly when I am on wifi. I have to flip to cellular to refresh or post items. I tried the android app but in the end I can't even post with the app at all. And photos refuse to upload. I don't know why I have this weird behaviour with my phone but it is totally consistent and happens most of the time I am using it.

So Tapatalk over the app for practical reasons.

99% of my browsing on forums is through Tapatalk. I'm on several forums and having a central point to keep up is invaluable. Pictures post easily too!
Forums not on Tapatalk get little use from me, even though they are of interest.

Tapatalk for me. Occasionally my laptop and edge.

I use the Android central app on my pixel 2 XL. then again on my Lenovo tablet.

 

[PowrDroid]

Chrome on my PC.
Tapatalk on my Pixel 2XL and Nexus 7 (2013) tablet (yes, still going strong.)

True. There's a truck forum I abandoned because they're not on Tapatalk. I found another forum that was on Tapatalk and that's where I go for content about Ram pickups.

I use whatever is convenient at the time and scene of arrival.

Android Central app for AC articles/news.
Tapatalk for forums.

Don't access the site or forums on PC/mac. Not that I don't want to but mostly do on the phone.

Nexus 7 (2013) tablet (yes, still going strong.)

Slightly off topic but mine is still going strong too (and I have a refurbished one for when it dies). Too bad Google dropped the ball on making another Nexus tablet. Wish I had gotten a nVidia Shield K1 when they were out.
Edit: oh, and Tapatalk https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.quoord.tapatalkpro.activity FTW

When mobile on phone Tapatalk ( dark mode)

When on desktop I use AC forums with Chrome browser ( dark mode )

 

[strikeIII]

Tapatalk - phone

Chrome - PC

Same here

 

[anon(10092459)]

Chrome - both mobile and laptop.

 

[Eggmundo]

Android Central app for the news and articles. Tapatalk for the forums (the forums on the AC app are slow and offer limited functionality such as no alerts when you've been quoted).
