Not horrible. The classic version I was forced to use (because AT stopped working with the beta tablet version they had up) was getting really, really tiresome in landscape.

Wonder how many quirky bugs I'll find.

I always use the regular forum on my ipad. What's the point of using Tapatalk on a tablet? The screen is big enough to fit the regular pages...

I've wondered this myself, in fact, even with a smartphone with a decent sized screen.

I've tried tapatak- even bought it- end up never using it. Maybe I'll have to revisit it.

I assume this is referring to the Android version. Does the tablet mode support 7 inch tablets? Most apps treat my Nexus 7 like a phone.

Don't get me wrong - I use tapatalk on my HTC One. I just find it easier to navigate and get an overview of what's happening in a thread using the browser (when on a tablet). I guess I'm just used to it? I have zero problems using touch to navigate.

Edit : Granted, I haven't seen the tablet UI... And I gave my ipad away this Christmas... So who knows, maybe it's easiest to use in the end?

Tapatalk is the killer app for my Nexus 7. So much easier to respond and read than constantly zooming on the webpage version of forums.

I hate the new Tapatalk phone version. The pictures in all the forum topic lists drives me crazy. I had to restore back to a previous version.
