It is disappointing that InternetBrands evidently would prefer mobile users be forced into a subpar viewing experience vs. using Tapatalk...but I guess that's a business decision.

I know my views/engagement on APC have decreased substantially since Tapatalk support went away; I only access it now via laptop because the phone experience is so bad.

Yep. And the mobile optimized site, well, sucks.

Youre definitely not the only one. It seems like a desktop is the only way to view this. On the iPad and iPhone, the ads overtake the entire screen. It doesnt matter if I use desktop or mobile settings. I miss Tapatalk. This version is terrible!

If the footer on here is accurate, APC is still running vBulletin v3.9 for it's forums. vBulletin announced that v3.x and v4.x was end of life and no longer supported in December 2017.

Has any consideration been given to updating to a current and supported vBulletin release which has an actively updated Tapatalk plugin for it?

FYI if you’re on iPhone and switch to ‘request desktop site’ it switches to a mobile friendly version.

Possible good news, sounds like the tech team has been able to work out some things with Tapatalk, an update is scheduled for today.

Despite a couple of enthusiastic "Tapatalk is back!" announcements...it is still not working. I do show APC on Tapatalk again (unlike the past few months) but it is behaving exactly like it was when this site initially stopped working. To "recap", a few months ago things went in this order.

1. Tapatalk worked fine. Then...

2. APC was still showing on Tapatalk. However selecting any thread brought you to a blank page with a message stating "This thread may have already been deleted by the administrator" followed by a hyperlink of "Open in Browser." Alternatively, trying to log in gives a "network error, please try again later" message. Then...after a week or two of this annoyance,

3. APC disappeared from Tapatalk entirely.

So now with the "Tapatalk functionality is back" announcement, I find myself at step 2. Once again, APC appears on Tapatalk...but it doesn't work the way it should--unlike all the other forums I follow that have never had issues, and work flawlessly.

I'm experiencing the same on Tapatalk for Android. Unable to login.

Tapatalk throws a "Network error, please try again later. (login)" error message. As others have stated, I too thought it was me, but I logged in via a browser and had no issues.

This did help, although I had to search around to find it.

For anyone else looking for it, the drop down is in the lower left hand corner of the screen.
