Tapatalk for Android and the forum

Those of you using Tapatalk for Android may have noticed some odd behavior lately in that the software was basically visiting the forum for you (assuming yo exited Tapatalk but did not log out of the forum) and when you came back you would not necessarily see all new threads when you clicked on New Posts. You would have to view All Posts or similar to see all of the most recently updated posts.

I changed the way the forum verifies the last time you visited so that problem should be gone. It may affect all users in how New Posts are displayed but I think it will be more accurate. If you see any issues please post them up here.

I didn't have any issues with Tapatalk, but now on my pc almost every section is highlighted with new updates, even if they do not have new replies.

Yea what h3slate said, its not a problem just strange haha

I thought it was my tablet causing me issues. Thanks for letting us know.

Funny enough it also affected somewhat the iPhone tapatalk. When you open a thread that you already read, it would bring to the first post, instead of to the last one you had read. All fixed now.

Same for me. Everything shows as new even if there isn't.

I think the difference with the "new" threads is if you haven't visited it, or least haven't visited it since the change I did a couple of days ago. It may end up settling in a bit differently. One nice benefit from this change is that it is apparent that more threads are being read and replied - post counts have gone up in the past couple of days after being really low while the Tapatalk app was acting up.
