Thanks

You can link an existing web-based forum to Tapatalk. That saves you the trouble of modifying your forum software for mobile devices and from having to create a standalone app for your forum.

Thanks, but I can’t see where I could create my own branded forum app like Mac Forums? A stand-alone app that I download like this one? Which is pretty cool by the way!

Mike is correct. Just link your forum to TapaTalk and then continue to use it as such. Our original Mac-Forums software (under former ownership) was developed and utilized that way. Our current software has been designed more with the way our forums work rather than a generic version.

You can do the same with TapaTalk.
