Not particularly. The most recent information, as shared on Twitter a few days ago, is that we're still waiting for Tapatalk's end to be finished, but feel we're at the final implementation stage before we enter the ZB Premium Beta Test.

If any substantial information becomes available, it will be announced.

Unacceptable Nicolas.

Another month has passed since this topic was posted on last, any news?

Forums are continuing to lose the battle against social media, the lack of mobile functionality here isn't helping.

I'm currently looking to create a forum for our community - and this is an absolute deal breaker for us. Any news on this?

The Tapatalk app has been placed on hold while both sides try to figure out the issues involved. Essentially its a security issue that is holding things up there. We hope to resolve it as quickly as possible, but work continues on our own mobile app as well. Regardless, a mobile solution is definitely coming. That remains a top priority.

It's funny. People are moving away from tapatalk and into responsive design yet ZetaBoards hasn't yet implemented tapatalk.

I guess not....surely the lack of a mobile app is costing premium memberships? I for one would be willing to upgrade if it was worth it. :-/

In general, summer is a little slow at first when everyone wraps up other obligations. Additionally, with vacations, it can be difficult to meet and discuss the latest update information. Once we have more information to share, we will do so. I know of at least one item in the pipeline that should be announced relatively soon. As to the mobile options, the news on Tapatalk remains the same last I heard. I am not sure of the current progress of the mobile app itself.

Sad. I've watched a whole family of related boards go from thriving to almost dead since zeta was introduced. Members have moved to facebook and other apps that are easier to use on a phone but don't have the same sense of community. An app is already too late for us.

This right here. For me (because I can't speak for the many), my confidence in ZetaBoards as a company is gone. A cursory glance at the announcements forum can show any person that there is not enough manpower here to complete essential projects on ZetaBoards. Unless the mobile app is built and implemented absolutely flawlessly the first time it will be a bigger flop than the Resource Database.

I was recently approached by someone who was looking for free forum software, and I can't believe the day finally arrived where I wasn't even comfortable mentioning ZetaBoards or my past involvement with it. This isn't anyones fault... it just sucks that after what felt like hundreds of hours of work here I'm not even left with the feeling that I'm proud for having done it. :logik:

Eh, life goes on! Good luck on this everyone!

Tapatalk is in not the direction that Zetaboards needs to go. If you search, you'll find that it is no longer a 4 or 5 star rated app, it is slowly dying off.

Amazon: 3 1/2 star rating/15 reviews
Google: 4.1 rating/254,684 reviews
iTunes: 1 1/2 stars/10 ratings (latest version)

If Zetaboards must use an "out of the box" service, they should check with Forum Runner (http://www.forumrunner.net/). Forum Runner currently supports vBulletin v3.6.x, vBulletin v3.7.x, vBulletin v3.8.x, vBulletin v4.0.x, vBulletin v4.1.x, phpBB v3.0.x, XenForo 1.0.x, XenForo 1.1.x, myBB v1.6.x., IP.Board 3.1.x, and IP.Board 3.2.x.

Forum Admins should just consider using the ZetaFresh Mobile Theme by Helena. You could then try something like the code below to autodetect if the user is using mobile and add the "setskin" to the URL. This way the mobile user gets the mobile theme:

Code: Untested
 
<script>
if( /Android|webOS|iPhone|iPad|iPod|BlackBerry|IEMobile|Opera Mini/i.test(navigator.userAgent) ) {
$skin = '?setskin=xxxxxxxx';
window.location.href = window.location.href + $skin
}
</script>

It's been quite a while since any updates on this. Any tapatalk or app updates? I know fall was the aim but fall technically ends December 20th.
