Dear Forum Owners,
15 years ago, I registered my first forum membership - and although I was mostly a lurker, following and participating in online discussions was an eye opening experience for me. Ever since, I've been fascinated with forums and the intrinsic value of interest-based discussions. The same forum I became a member of 15 years ago is still thriving today and I'm proud to say that it's also currently available on Tapatalk.
The introduction of Tapatalk as a free app wildly exceeded our greatest expectations. The number of Tapatalk users skyrocketed at a staggering rate. While we are thrilled that we helping more people view and join forums, we also discovered that the quality of our customer support suffered as we could not keep pace with the rapidly increasing user base.
During the last several months of growing and transitional pains, we have learned from our missteps and have re-focused our attention to improve the quality of our product, support, and communication. We have listened to Forum Owner feedback and have made great strides in
improving forum discovery and offering better
monetization opportunities with a guaranteed eCPM.
I wanted to take this opportunity to share with you more of the improvements we have made (and some that are still in-progress).
- The latest versions of the Tapatalk Plug-In will enable an option to turn off the Smart App Banner
- Direct integration of the ability to use your own VigLink or SkimLink account on your published forums
- Removal of "via Tapatalk" in user profiles and "Who's Online" sections of your forums
- If you choose to set up custom fields in your user registration on Tapatalk, users will berequired to enter values to register an account. This means no more incomplete user profiles. This is part of an on-going improvement of our in-app User Registration feature
- Full StopForumSpam integration
In addition to these changes, we are also reviewing local regulations and user privacy requirements to make sure any new features we add conform to updated regulations.
I hope these changes also demonstrate that we value your feedback and that it does indeed help shape our product. If there is any feature, or lack thereof that really bugs you, feel free to reply to this email to let us know. We're always willing to listen.
Thank you again for your support as we improve your community experience on mobile.
