So how is this app better than the regular browsing on my phone? It's pretty rare that I'd spend money on an app.
Well, if you're like me and suffer from ghetto internet syndrome

posting from safari can be quite a difficult problem... It takes years to load, sometimes double posts, you can't post pictures, and is just an all around pain in the ass...
With Tapatalk, you can browse thousands of forums worldwide, you can post very easily, it has a messaging system (which is supposed to notify you like a text message but I haven't messed with that yet), It allows you to post pictures directly from your device, and it's just 10 times better..
