This is good news for all you guys and gals who want to browse the site on your phones/tablets.

Here's how to get and use Tapatalk, as told by Autumn:

Go to the appstore or android market and search "tapatalk" then download it.. after the download is complete open the app and register ( all it takes is your email and password ) after registration is complete click the search button in the lower left corner and and look for "wii unite" after finding wii unite all you have to do is login and you should be good to go..

that's basically it.. the app does cost 99 cents though, I doubt that should matter.



Special thanks to Autumn for suggesting this app and helping us get it working on the site.  Special thanks to Term as well for being willing to troubleshoot so extensively in hopes of getting this thing working.


As always, if you guys have any questions, feel free to ask them here or PM me.

Top notch work, Turbo. I'd definitely give it a try but I don't have a tablet or one of those super duper smart phones. I know a lot of the guys have wanted this though so excellent work.

Honestly the thanks should go to Autumn and Term.  Autumn suggested it and she and Term did most of the heavy lifting when it came to getting it working.

I gathered that... What is it's purpose


Title: Re: WU is now compatible with Tapatalk!

It's an app that connects you to thousands of forums worldwide and makes posting on forums a lot easier.

I did the beta... Seemed cool, but i couldn't enter text anywhere. I had to scroll through the gaming forums for five minutes to find wu... Maybe that's just bc it was beta. Also it's 2.99. I've never paid for an app and i probably won't start now. I may break down and do it though cuz **** typing on here kills me


Title: Re: WU is now compatible with Tapatalk!
Post by: Termin8or on February 22, 2013, 06:04:12 am
I think it's $1.99 with Apple....and Tapatalk2 is $3.99....

I don't know about the beta, but Tapatalk has a search feature, so I just typed in wiiunite and it found it for me. I didn't have to scroll through anything. Plus, it remembers it once you find it the first time. It gives you text boxes just like if you're instant messaging. You can edit your posts, delete them, etc. Adding pictures is supposed to be really easy, but I think that feature is an extra $0.99.....I'm not sure about that though, Autumn already posted a picture, so she probably knows.

Wiiunite is the 82nd most popular forum under the console category! That's pretty good considering that there's nearly 1,000 forums in that category. Lol

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..

Why wouldn't I use my laptop?

You can if you go to College.  Most students bring a laptop.

I'm a junior in college and I rarely take my laptop to class.

I do like seeing rows of underclassmen with MacBook Pros surfing Facebook during lectures and then complaining about how the prof never went over something.

Laptops weren't invented when I was in school but I don't think i would have taken one to class :/

Title: Re: WU is now compatible with Tapatalk!
Post by: Termin8or on March 01, 2013, 09:53:32 am
I always wrote the kind of bird I was using on the message and I could only spell pigeon...that's why I didn't use those other stupid birds >:(


Title: Re: WU is now compatible with Tapatalk!

You guys went all serious on me  b) I was referring to the 'nailing', not the phonetic spelling  :P My mind was in the gutter  :-\


Title: Re: WU is now compatible with Tapatalk!
Post by: Λυтυмη on March 01, 2013, 11:00:09 am
I don't even know what phonetic means


Title: Re: WU is now compatible with Tapatalk!
Post by: Turboweasle on March 01, 2013, 11:51:06 am
Means spelling a word like it sounds, in this context.  That's where the whole "Hooked on Phonics" thing came from.  It was aiming to teach kids to spell phonetically, which is a terrible idea as English has far too many words that are not spelled phonetically.  Actually, "phonetically" isn't even really spelled phonetically.


Nailed it

I just didn't want to confirm my bird fetish.

Erase the cache, close the app, make sure it isn't running in the background and then restart it.

if that doesn't work, you'll need to delete the app and re-download it.


Title: Re: WU is now compatible with Tapatalk!
Post by: Termin8or on April 04, 2013, 02:12:32 pm
No, I'm not gonna do it

Post by: Termin8or on April 04, 2013, 02:15:17 pm
I deleted the app and installed it again and it still won't work. I get the same message as we got before it was fixed


Title: Re: WU is now compatible with Tapatalk!
Post by: Autumn1194 on April 04, 2013, 02:18:26 pm
That's odd because mine was doing the same thing... but I did all that and now it works just fine.


Title: Re: WU is now compatible with Tapatalk!
Post by: Termin8or on April 04, 2013, 02:24:27 pm
That's funny, clearing the cache worked but deleting and reinstalling the app didnt
