    There are other concerns but the main issue with tapatalk is the security of the forum.

    At a certain point I discovered that it is exposing private data such as email addresses, password hashes/salts, etc. I figured out what's going on and fixed it. Even though I caught it early I still had to carefully audit the system and verify that the exposed info had not been accessed in any way. All was good so there was no need to alarm anyone on the forum.

    This incident took some work, but most importantly it increased my work going forward. I had to do it again with every new version of tapatalk and make sure I don't find anything suspicious as well as monitor it constantly.

    At this point I am simply unable to continue doing this and there hasn't been anyone else who could.

    Dropping Tapatalk is a big deal for me.
    Is there no other app that can be used with SRP?

    While I don't use it, if you look back through this thread you will find several who do and some who couldn't seem to live without it to participate here at SRP. However most if not all of them are still here and participating.

    You might want to PM those who really relied on this 'app'. Perhaps they can be of some help to guide you on how the world works here (without the Tapatalk) thing.

    As my father used to say: "Ya never know till ya ask".
    Dieseld and Gasman like this.
