Too many Tapatalk ads

Is it just me or Tapatalk has decided to just make the user experience miserable with obnoxious ads?

I’m too cheap to spend on “premium subscriptions” bs… saving for the next Rolex lol

Hope you all are enjoying spring

I rarely go on Tapatalk. If I'm on my phone I just zoom in and read the posts on the browser. I only use Tapatalk to upload pics

Definitely a lot more ads than there used to be but it doesn't really bother me.
I'm usually on my laptop.

It's disgusting.

I don't give two bits about the new Candy Crush app. ��

I agree. I'm making more of an effort to limit cell phone time. When I'm on my computer, sure, as it's usually back-and-forth doing work. When I'm out-and-about, I try to keep my eyes up & open.

You should! There's so much candy to be crushed! You could have ten million make-believe credits to spend on a bigger shoe to crush more candy! Think of the toffee & licorice that you could be smooshing!

Too many Tapatalk ads

I upgraded and to be honest, if it weren’t for TapaTalk, I’d rarely be on TRF. When I’m in my office near my desktop, I’m usually doing something that’s a little more urgent (e.g., financial matters, paying the bills, etc.). With Tapatalk, I could sit by the pool, sip wine, and check out TRF.

I agree.

It also improves forum engagement as you can set notifications to alert you when people quote your post etc.

I’ve not noticed any on the phone, but on the iPad there has been a noticeable increase…

Out of curiosity, why can’t you check out TRF on your phone’s browser? If you’re not posting photos, what does TT do that your browser doesn’t?
