86lxjunker Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Hi Guys - any thought to producing a Forums App for the Ipad ? I'm on a couple of forums that have them and it makes reading the forums much easier then going through Safari and using the regular site ?

Team Adam's Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Can't you use tapatalk on the iPad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86lxjunker Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 I have no idea what tapatalk is ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 The cost to develop an app is beyond what we could reasonably afford to spend right now, especially when you consider that it would likely be given away for free. You'd be shocked (at least I was) at how much it costs. Maybe someday in the future... but we're too small of an outfit to be fronting that kind of coin right now.

StormChaser Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 The tapatalk for iPad doesn't work with Adams. Something is wrong with the coding. You can use tapatalk on your iPad by using the iPhone version. I prefer the one for tapatalk but it won't work until Adams codes the site properly for it.

Thanks for the quick replies - I guess I would be shocked on how much it would cost as I assumed it wouldn't be that much or there would be an 'app' to show you how to create one...LOL ....but I guess I was wrong...soo you know what happens when you assume ?? ... lol !!!

MiloX Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 See... This thread inspired me. I think there is a market for an Adams iPad/iphone app. It would be a pay for kinda deal. $4.99 . For $4.99 you'd get all of the products on it (with shopping cart capability) and how to use each. You could optimize the existing videos for the app, post answers to faqs, give advice for layering products, etc. And of course provide quick access to the forums. It'd be like Dylan in your pocket. Just without being all creeped out about having the real Dylan in your pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savi01 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I was actually thinking about taking a iOS app development class in the near future. If I did, making an app for Adam's would be a pretty cool project. Maybe I'll give it some more thought... Incorporating the forums into the app might be a bit too tricky (being a beginner), but maybe an app which has all the videos, hints, product info would probably be more do-able. I won't have time to really give this more thought until my semester ends, but maybe there are some developers on the forum that might be able to help?

MAYBEN Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I was wondering about DLing the Tapatalk HD for my iPad, but wasn't sure if it's worth it or not, being that I have the iPhone version.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingsford Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Safari broken? Why do you need Tapatalk when you can view and post easier on an iPad. Tapatalk is mainly for small screened devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiloX Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Personally, I like the way tapatalk manages the forum experience. Makes viewing and reviewing much more efficient. Plus, you don't have to see gaudy sigs like that one dude with the raptor. Yeah... This was sent by tapatalk for iPad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
