Default Tapatalk alternative for Android?

I was annoyed as f*** with Tapatalk so I uninstalled it but chrome on Android isn't great for viewing/enjoying the CP forums either and I can never figure out how to post images or jifs or anything so I can be like the cool kids... Anyways, any better options. Thanks friends.

What is annoying you? Have you tried emailing their support? I've actually found them very responsive to feedback I've sent.

For me, it takes forever to load the fire on ice forum especially. It will often not load anymore new posts in a thread, I would have to back out all the way and go back in to the thread to see the rest of it. I don't think it's possible to unthank a post you accidentally thanked?

Same here.

I've deleted my cache and reinstalled and it still sucks.

Even paid for VIP and no improvement either.

The new goggles also do nothing.

I'm not sure what it is that causes that, could it be just the large number of posts and threads compared to many sites?

I have the exact same issues. No matter which version of Tapatalk.

On Android btw, I wonder if iOS sees the same issues?

I'll just pipe in and say that I've been using Tapatalk on Android for years now. The only time there were issues loading was when the site itself was slow. Once thread size was reduced by archiving, I haven't had any issues.

I was a VIP on tapatalk until they took that away a couple years ago. Now I just use the free ad-based version.

The one possible difference is that we use open dns in our home for filtering, so ads do get filtered. Sometimes (maybe once every couple days or so), when an ad is blocked, tapatalk will not allow me to move to the next page automatically through scrolling. To get around this, I just explicitly move to the next page, and then I can scroll through the rest of the thread.

I've had the same issues with Tapatalk on iOS... very very slow to load the main hockey forums, but others load ok. Seems like it's been better the last week or two?

Anyone had any luck fixing this? I only have trouble with the Fire and Ice sub-forum.
