Charles4515 Posted January 12, 2019 #352 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Hi again! Charles4515 ~ thanks but I can read the forums on the CC app, just can't sign in to comment. I only have Tapatalk on my Iphone not on my Android, so can't get on it. You will have to wait until the next version of Tapatalk for iOS is released to be able to login on your iPhone. The new version of Tapatalk for iOS that is in beta will let you login on an iPhone. I am posting on an iPhone with the beta. I don’t know the timeline for the release of the next version but hopefully shortly. After that new versions of the CC branded app will come.

hapster85 Posted January 12, 2019 #353 Share Posted January 12, 2019 On the iOS (iPhone) version of Tapatalk that is being beta tested it is not the normal Tapatalk login either but it works different than what you describe. When you select log in you are taken to the web login page. Then after logging in you are switched back to Tapatalk. It is weird. Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkThat's what happens with the Android version when you click "no" when it asks to log you in. The login session also expires, so I've been trying to get into the habit of logging out before closing the app. Hopefully this is corrected soon as well.

I don’t have to click “no”. Have do it often as the login session expires often with the iOS version too. What they need to do is make it “stick”.

Pushka Posted January 12, 2019 #355 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I’ve lost count how many times I’ve had to log in to CC today. I’m rapidly losing interest in it. Can’t seem to get Tapatalk to work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles4515 Posted January 14, 2019 #357 Share Posted January 14, 2019 I have been using the latest build of the Tapatalk iOS beta on my iPhone onboard Harmony of the Seas with Voom. At home I have a 100 mbps connection while Voom is giving me 4 mbps. It is okay. I do have to log on every session, but all is only slightly slower than at home.

Charles4515 ~ thanks but I can read the forums on the CC app, just can't sign in to comment. I only have Tapatalk on my Iphone not on my Android, so can't get on it. So I just reinstalled the old app and indeed it does work for reading. However, you cannot read roll call threads as those require you to be signed on. I checked and it doesn't show any threads.

tartanexile81 Posted January 18, 2019 #359 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I am using the app on my iPad and iPhone and when I try to log in it says my password is wrong.

Or use Tapatalk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I was able to sign up for it but I'm Android so not the same thing. Bottom line is the best option for iOS right now is the old app and make do without being able to read protected forums, or use the mobile website. It's sad how many members have probably been lost by this short-sighted and poorly rolled out "upgrade".

I've just gone through the rigmarole of installing tapatalk and I discovered it doesn't work either - grrrrr! So basically I can't use Cruisecritic when I'm on my cruise in 10 days time. I'm away for 6 weeks!!! That is rubbish. Why has this issue not been resolved? Edited January 18, 2019 by tartanexile81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because someone decided that the mobile version of the website would be better than a mobile app and eliminate the need for an app. Apparently they were wrong. That said, you CAN use the website, even if it's not what you'd prefer to use. And you can read most threads using the old app. You just can't post. Or you could try joining the Tapatalk beta program: https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/tapatalksupport/ios-android-how-to-join-a-beta-program-t28219.html Edited January 18, 2019 by MisterBill99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a smartphone you can read and post to Cruise Critic with your web browser. I am using the beta of Tapatalk right now on Harmony of the Seas and it works good but I also logged in to CC from my web browser and that worked too for reading and posting. I think some will prefer Tapatalk and others will prefer the mobile web version. I read and posted from both to see if one was faster than the other. Both were about the same speed on this ship which has some of the fastest available internet. 4 mbps. Don’t know how it will work on slower networks.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Sure you can do this but every time I want to check on the roll call I have to sign in, even if I was signed in an hour earlier. I used to spend a lot of time researching CC but now I just check two roll calls and a general ship line forum and I’m out. It seems still, that every time I change pages I can see the Log in Log out thing changing and it makes it really slow. If I wasn’t on an imminent cruise I wouldn’t bother checking in at all. I have cleared my cookies, I have checked all my browser settings and it is nothing I have done. And no other forum site is doing what CC is doing to me. Another flyer forum I am on recently migrated to another server and their web interface is so good that I don’t need the app and they have decided they don’t need to develop one. And this is an Australian company that has far less financial resources than CC who has significant resources to tap into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Practically I am logging in again whenever I open the app. On the web version on my phone it stays logged in. On my computer I get the dipsy-do log in you describe. Maybe I missed it but I have not seen anything from CC that says try plan to fix that. I am on 7 or 8 forums including one using the same software they just log in and stay logged in.

Charles4515 Posted January 23, 2019 #371 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Version 8.1.0 of Tapatalk for iOS has been released in the Apple App Store. You should be able to log in to Cruise Critic. I installed it on my iPad and was successful. Posting now with the new version. ( I have been running the beta on my iPhone but not on my iPad) If log in does not work when you open the update I suggest going to the “Me” section, settings and clear the cache. You should be able to log in from “Home”. If you don’t see Logon in Home pull down. I suspect people are not going to love the log in process.

Charles4515 Posted January 24, 2019 #374 Share Posted January 24, 2019 It's very clunky. And you get logged out often. If it were a one time clunky and CC remained logged in then could forget about it. Unfortunately CC does not remain logged in. I use Tapatalk for several other forums and the other forums have remained logged in for years. But also they don’t have the clunky log in that goes to the CC web page to log in and then back to the app. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
