    No and no plans for one cause vbulletin feels you can just use normal site just fine on iPad browser

      Reason I asked is because I had seen the picture on the main vb splash page of what appeared to be a full screen iPad app, so off I toddled to the app store and all I could find was an iPhone app. The iPhone app scales to twice the size but it isn't full screen and frankly it looks shoddy.

      Just a bit misleading.

              I also have ipad requests, and it would be really nice, but ipad can use the full web version with no problems.

              I would be very happy if a dedicated ipad app came out, but right now i would prefer push notifications on the existing apps, and a Windows phone app is also begining to be in demand.

                    Plus tapatalk does not give you the control you have with the vb app. Plus it is beyond crazy expensive.

                            Many reasons.

                            Anyone with a serious business will want to limit the branding of third-parties when people visit their sites or share an app with thousands of other sites which could be competing sites.

                            Or they may decide not to charge their end users for the use of an app to their site. Everyone of your users paid $3.00 to $5.00 to visit your site on Tapatalk. Well that and the sites of any of your competitors.

                              to go along with that.... may want to offer free to clients but have Ads (with tapatalk can't do that or all add revenue goes to them)... You may want paid without ads well with tapatalk can't do that or they would get all money from purchases.......
