Sorry, the first picture loaded is the ‘after’… notice the larger badgerandblade.com font in the address window, with no change to browsing functions/tabs. For those with fat fingers and small screens, the mobile site is challenging to navigate… as my boss says, “it is what it is…”.
I've only ever accessed Badger and Blade from my iPhone (6s). I've never used Tapa Talk to access the site. Instead, I only ever use the Safari browser.
I was in that Italian fraternity, Phi Kappa Chino
I used Tapatalk for a while, and, I just prefer the mobile site on my phone anyway. I use my phone for uploading pictures, and, making posts because it is quick. The only thing I don't like about the mobile site is the inability to see signatures. On my tablet I use the desktop site automatically which I prefer on the larger screen.
I think if you rotate your phone horizontally then you can see signatures
Good to know. I'll try it.
Tapatalk was a decent app for a while. It became cumbersome, quirky and unreliable as the years went on. Even with paid upgrades. I dumped it a couple years ago and don't miss it one bit.
LG V60. Chrome. I've been using my phone only for at least 5 years. No problems with B&B ever.
Where does one find/get the mobile site?
You just open up B&B on any mobile device you use. Via any browser.
Copy that! Thank you.
I exclusively used Tapatalk for the convenience of browsing through different subjects on multiple forums. Even though I completely understand the circumstances, it was still very convenient for me to use.
Is there any equivalent app?

If you’re using Chrome OS, then the ‘Progressive Web App’ is a pretty good alternative. Same for iOS, but you won’t get notifications. Most browsers have the option to install a PWA compliant webpage as an app on your home screen.
Native apps are on the to-do list, but will take some time.
I know it’s not exactly the same thing but I use “latest posts” on my desktop and on my mobile (98% of the time) the same function is accessed by clicking on the lightning bolt at the top right. At least on iOS it is. Hope this helps at least a bit
This. I am on Android too. Fonts are too small on the Chrome browser and the site overrides the Chrome font zoom setting. Recently have started to use Firefox (mostly because of the adds)
On multiple browsers -Chromium based at least- use pinch to zoom, it helps. Additionally, as @Eben Stone said in an previous post, Opera is brilliant. If any of the above are not appealing, you can try and increase the rendered text size in settings.
Are we taking about the front increase in system setting or just in browser ? Give Opera a try, it might surprise you with the text wrap feature.
Well like I said before I use Tapatalk 99.0% of the time. I don’t like this Web Browser thing so I will be limiting my time at Badger & Blade. Sorry guys you need to get with the times.
I’m Not Mad or anything just Disappointed in your Decision on Not Supporting the small Majority of us that use Tapatalk.
