I use this on other forums and it's a brilliant app for the iPad.

Any chance of making PH compatible please?

Don't think so - PH is a custom-written forum, rather than an off-the-shelf package like vBB or phpBB.

I'll defer to the boys upstairs for the official word, of course.

ETA - in the meantime, have you tried the mobile site on m.pistonheads.com ?

Thanks and I'll have a look at the mobile site.

While it is in theory possible for us to make the site compatible with Tapatalk, the fact that PH is custom written means that there is no "off the shelf" plug-in to do the hard work for us.

Because of this we'd prefer to spend that development time improving the mobile site, which will work across any platform (past, present or future), can include exactly the features we want and not leave us reliant on another party.

Hope that makes sense thumbup

I prefer full site on iPad, mobile site on iPhone.

Hi Zod

Like you I currently view as full on the iPad, but since I've been using the Tapatalk App on a couple of other forums it seems quite well put together and works really well.
