I'm wondering if anyone has had any good/bad experiences using a forum reader app such as Tapatalk with WoWI. I keep hearing about Forum Runner for the iPhone, and am curious if there's a good (+free) Android equivalent.

I usually use the stock Safari browser, and sometimes Opera Mini. Load times in each (using a stable wifi connection) seem inordinately high at times when browsing these forums. I usually prefer Safari because Opera doesn't see the mouseover navigation here.

Oops...this probably belongs in Chit-Chat.

If any mods happen upon this would you mind moving it? Thanks!

Honestly your best bet is going to be a news reader. Since this site does offer RSS feeds, give the Google Reader a try. You can find it at the Android Market.

tapatalk requires someone to install the tapatalk mod on the site. I am on a couple of sites which do, and people seem to like it.

The RSS functionality works great, but only for original posts...not sure if replies aren't syndicated, or if I'm doin it wrong.

I hooked myself up with Eclipse & the Android SDK in hopes of developing a WoWI forum browser. Ambition & naivety seem to compliment each other nicely.

I am now testing tapatalk on wowinterface. Our site is now available on the service however I am still reviewing the server side code and may remove it if theres something I dont like.

So feel free to try and let me know if you encounter any problems.
