As a few members know we implemented Tapatalk on the forum some time ago, however with the most recent upgrade another forum app provider, Forumrunner, was included as part of the core software, so you now have a choice :)
You can download the apps from both the Android and iTunes app stores, plus Tapatalk is available for Blackberry too.
To browse, the app has a free version, but if you are a hardcore forum user and want to post too, you'll have to buy the full version. The forum makes no money from this. The app costs money because the developer has to pay staff to do updates and keep up the dev subscriptions for the app stores etc. We don't begrudge them this, as members are getting a service that we couldn't provide and upkeep ourselves. ;) :)
You can read more about the options on the Tapatalk and Forumrunner websites. It's all down to personal preference which app you choose... I believe Forumrunner is the cheaper one of the two, but Tapatalk is more established... but I would urge any new user to try out both free versions before buying anything so you can make your mind up.
Here are the links to their websites :
