Which Android forum app(s) are you using? - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to find a forum app that will let me review XDA + other forums. I use to use tapatalk but I hate the new update.. The XDA is nice but limited to just XDA. I can't find any other forum apps that allow me to connect to multiple android forums.

If you paid for the old Tapatalk pro you can still download it..

It is posted everywhere in this forum.
So why isn't it posted in the Netflix .apk thread?

I do not know
There are many many Netflix threads, the first being here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076150
And it is posted there.
Haha Lol... funny thread. Great app - they're not all functionally similar, so keep trying until you get a robust one for your setup.

Free Tapatalk Alternative(Almost better)

Over downloading Mediafire links for the latest version of Tapatalk, I found myself running into an app almost alike.
The app is called Forum Runner.
Two things...
#1. The free version does everything Tapatalk does and more, downfall is you can't post attachments.
#2. The Dev himself told me that in the paid version you'd soon be able to add your favorite unlisted forums.
So should you try? Yes.
I didn't post attachments when I had Tapatalk because the quality had become shot out.
Give a go.

Well it seemed like a really nice app...right up to the part where I hit 'reply' and it told me that was a premium feature...I don't mind paying for an app but that's such a basic function it should really be included in the free version.

I used this app for a while and I swear I remember reply working just fine. Then a couple of days ago I tried it after uploading a new ROM and all of a sudden reply became a premium feature... that's garbage.
Tapatalk looks nice but?
How can I find out if the forums I use regularly work with tapatalk? With no free lite version it is difficult to know if it s a good investment or not. People keep referring to Tapatalk or XDA but surely the XDA app is just for XDA Dev forums and not for multiple forums (fora?) - I think developers would sell a lot more copies of good apps if they made trial versions available.
Are there any other multiple forum readers out there?

Go to the website on your phone and it should pop up a message. If not, then it probably isn't supported.

I would advise you to try the free BuzzBundle version. It has much more to offer

how to create a forum just like this?

hi guys, I really love XDA, im on it all the time, But i wanted to make my own forum just like this, except its focused on just 1 phone, Is there any possible way to create a forum the same as this and excellent as this one?
If so, Can you give me a step-by-step walkthrough? Cheers (P.S, like i said, exactly (nearly) like this, so i can recruit mods,etc, mysql, php etc, anything, as long as its like this forum/website)
cheers,
wilbso
This should get you started: http://bit.ly/xYjjc5
well there are lots of free websites that allows you to create forums which you can manage as you like or create one on your own with phpbb, vb etc with your domain. If its a forum, you can assign mods, database or just anything else.

Well then you have to find oue, and make it do what you want. Most forums are based on phpBB or vBulletin. I think XDA is vBulletin.

Click THANKS if I helped
Simple. I've made a forum before.
Buy vBulletin or another forum software. Get yourself some hosting, according to the specs. Install the forum on the server using the manual. Then just start tweaking the settings and get it noticed.

OMG thanks dude, i have just created my forum, check here for my new forum about the xperia x8 and more
the main forum, which is focused on the xperia x8, is called xperiance,
Hello !
Well... Good ! But I guess you can do much better with a Forumotion's free forum !
It's the best free forum hoster, which offers a lot of possibilities. You need to try !
May be worth considering whether or not the forum you go with is supported by Tapatalk. There's a list of forums they support on their site...
http://www.tapatalk.com/
I beleive the recipe is 2 parts vBulletin, 2 parts contributing users and 8 parts trolls....
Mix well and leave to simmer for 9 years....
Good luck.

Of course it did. Forums needs users and by only focusing on ONE device, the forum becomes a ghost town when a new version gets released. Its not a sustainable model at all.

if you haven't noticed... XDA doesn't support it's roots anymore now that android is their princess. check out Board Express for Tapatalk. been awhile since an update, but it is a lot more up-to-date than the forgotten XDA app. XDA app is just a forum specific Board Express with XDA colors.

I am already using Board Express and is far more better than the WP7 version of the official XDA which i purchased and i now regret.
Anyway thank you for your answer, i got the point.

Board Express seems to have been abandoned for a while, adding forums is not even possible anymore. Just use Tapatalk, there's now an official version on the marketplace

Thanks.I`ve just installed it and it`s great.But look`s like i am little stupid for not knowing how to subscribe to a forum on Tapatalk.
It seams I can subscribe only for a thread and not a subforum.Anyway thanks a lot i already started getting used to this app.

unfortunatelly subscribing to forums (or viewing forums you're subscribed to) is currently not possible in tapatalk. I have been requesting this after the first private beta (in regards to the xda developers forums with its massive list of forums) and the author promissed to look into it. We'll see if this is really feasible.

Do not update today's tapatalk!!

Omg it's awful! Please can someone post a non updated apk file so i can get rid of this mess please?!

I should have read it first before updating.
I'm using the new xda one app. Its in alpha but OMG is it so much better than tapatalk. I already rated its app as crap on the playstore lol.

I want more than just xda access tho. Thankfully I'm back on the older version and can actually make sense of what's going on. Who ever designed that new update needs a punch in the face
You should get used to play with this new UI but I would not say it's awful.
BTW Tapatalk has now access to your position and accounts (I saw these requests through Xprivacy).
Subscribed didn't show any forums
You couldn't tell what was read and unread
You couldn't mark forums as read.
When you finally got to the forum you subscribe to and went to a topic, going back takes you right out of the forum.
In my opinion definitely awful is the best description
Are there any alternatives?
The new update really is ****.

Yes that's the problem, Tapatalk is the only app, forum friend is to slow and other i don't find. I use Tapatalk since years but it's getting more and more horrible and the last two updates are the biggest crap i ever see. The XDA App is nice, if you want a app for more Forum you are lost
Tapaltk is orrible now....
Have someone found a decent alternative for it?
Just go back to 4.9.5 from the link in post #3
