    Need? No. You can use your browser.

    Want? Yes, you should get it without question.

    It's night and day faster and easier.

    It allows you to browse and post to the site without all of the extra"fluff"of the full site. You can browse topics quicker, reply quicker, etc. It's somewhat like a slightly stripped down version of the full site.

    I think mine was $10 for the Android. I probably would of paid $30 or more for it. :tu:

    I don't post on AT but sometimes read the classified. It works over there as well.

    Yes, you can filter by new posts only or browse all forums. You can check and send pms and search as well

    I think tapatalk is worth the purchase, as others have stated it is a handy little app.

    I used tapatalk on my last phone the Motorola Droid it was much needed for that phone.

    The only time I use it on this phone is when I want to upload a photo from my phone. Tapatalk hosts the photos for you so there is no need to use Photobucket. Simple and fast to post photos.

    Nah... you don't need it. We can hold on until you get to a computer and can post like a normal junkie. LOL I'm just not believing all the people that are so willing to dump credit card info onto a phone so they can buy some little application that really doesn't do much except make them waste more time and money. How many millions of folks was it that had their stuff compromised over their cell phones???? Then they're texting while driving and have a wreck. Nah.... you really don't need it.

    I use the Opera Mini browser and it is relatively painless to cruise and post on here.

    Send from my laptop because that's where I am right now
