Anyone have the ability to develop a DT phone APP? Would love to access without having to use the browser. Just a thought.....

What about making the forum compatible with Tapatalk? That's a really handy interface for mobile devices.

Is that the last 10 posts sort by time/date? If so, that's sweet and a bit easier than
"view active topics"

I think it's the same as the "View New Posts" link above.

Here are all of the available feeds. Some browsers are better at letting you know they're available than others. These work very well on my mobile. You can also import them into other apps. I would assume Flipboard would work. I used Pulse reader, and it was a little tricky to get that working.

Feed - Dirt Treaders: feed.php
Feed - All forums: feed.php?mode=forums
Feed - New Topics: feed.php?mode=topics
Feed - Active Topics: feed.php?mode=topics_active

I looked into Tapatalk, but I can't find a forum that actually uses it.

Look here: www.rebreatherworld.com (my other "hobby" I'm not committed to)
or here: www.thedecostop.com

They both use tapatalk.

IMO Tapatalk is noy worth the time or effort, it pretty much sucks.

Not sure that DWill is the best judge of that, but...

I use Tapatalk for MTBR on my phone and tablet and love it. It lays out the content cleaner and since it's paid, it loads faster because there are no ads. I have to say that I don't even bother with DT on my phone as it's too small. I balked at paying the $2.99 for it, but it has been worth it.

There are likely free ad-supported alternatives. I just don't know any.
