    Yes, I know this question has been asked God knows how many times before but what are you guys doing with regard to using BS from a mobile device? Your iPhone app was hardly a runaway success while the mobile market is rapidly growing and becoming fragmented. You are effectively looking at five main players (Android, iOS, webOS, Windows Phone and BlackBerry OS) on numerous different hardware. A forum skin just doesn't cut it 2011. Obviously we do not expect to have killer apps available for everything so surely you should be looking for a viable solution that will bring your product to everyone. That viable solution is Tapatalk.

    Any update?

    I know in my case I rarely use the site from a mobile device and I doubt I am alone. Making BS easily available to everyone will not only keep your existing customers happy but also help to increase traffic and attract more. You win, we win, these whiny threads become redundant.

    Can't post on BigSoccer through Tapatalk?

    It would be a genius idea.

    Why can't an admin give an update?

    Or at least say, that BS has no interest in Tapatalk. It was be a great idea, BS needs to move on with technology.

    btw - I am totally unimpressed with the workaround of having to login to BS and then use the IPhone skin. Very much a hassle. Making me consider my continued presence as a free member.

    I'm starting to think this is a phony Customer Service sub forum....

    I think we're better off contacting the helpdesk

    I don't think this thread is getting anywhere.

    Maybe the people higher up aren't interested?

    If true it is sad or they could just reply and say it is technically beyond them.

    Well, this is technically beyond me, but not Jesse so may not be our focus right now. I'll ask him.

    I wouldn't hold my breath. The original post was on 13 Feb 2011 at 07:33 AM. The first response from an administrator (dark knight) was made on 27 Oct 2011 at 11:03 PM. That's a total elapsed time of 256 Days, 15 Hours, 30 Minutes.

    It's pretty clear "customer service" is an afterthought. Which is why I will never renew my BigSoccer "premium" membership.

    Sorry - don't have any news about this. Don't think we currently have plans for this. Can you link me a site that does use this so I can see how it works?

    It's not the first time. I'm pretty used to it by now.
