    Baseball Slant New mobile browsing options added!

    Can't stand to be away from B/S at all? Are you ever tempted to check the site while sitting on a public toilet? If so, thanks to the first group and I think I will avoid using the second group's phone. The good news is that we once again have some options so you can easily browse from your phone.

    First option is a simple style stripped down and should be very fast loading. You should be able to login, check your PM's, see new posts, and post replies. You won't be able to access much beyond the forums, such as blogs, but for basic browsing it works great!

    The second option is Tapatalk, an iPhone and Android app. There are free versions available, but the paid one for the iPhone is $2.99 and it features full forum interaction all done in the phone's native system (the free version allows only reading of the forums, not posting.) Tapatalk supports all the usual forum functions plus full screen image viewing, image upload, caching (less reload), private messaging, all these features are accessible in just a few simple taps. Plus, many other forums use it so it would use for other forums you visit potentially. I use the app and I highly recommend it.

    Smartphones have replaced magazines and newspapers for me. Great invention.

    It's actually a pretty cool app. I have found that three other sites I visit use it too so I now browse them on my phone a bit more.

    I use this app daily, but this is the only forum I use it for. Hell I'm using it now.
