    I has to do with your browser, I’m sure. On Safari (iPhone) I see it no more often than every few days. Make sure the “keep me logged in” button is checked and that you are allowing cookies from this site.

    Presumably this is on a mobile device. Not sure with Android (don't have one) but on Safari (possibly similar with other browsers if it also happens there) go to the Settings app -> Safari then toggle off the 'Safari Suggestions setting. That's global, though, and will turn off all app suggestions. Alternatively uninstall the Tapatalk app if you're not using it.

    Yes, it's a nuisance, but many of us prefer Tapatalk for accessing the forum online. I preserve the browser view for certain moderator actions, like killing spam, but it involves a lot of zooming in an out to do anything. But that's just me, and others may prefer the browser skin on their smartphones.

    Why is Tapatalk an advantage to you and why might I use it instead of Android?

    seems it goes away for a few days after posting here then its back.

    i use chrome on an android tablet. i have cookies on plus i dont sign out using the remember me sign in.

    im logged in to several sites and not a single one does this nag thing. in fact not a single site i visit on the internet does this. its definately this site's software bug.

    when the nag shows, if i click on continue with chrome, it goes away for the session. when i come back the next day still logged in, the nag is back. what is odd, because i have cookies on, it shouldnt appear anymore till i sign out then log in again. not so here.

    well, its back.

    Tapatalk Mobile App isn't a replacement for Android, it's an app that runs on Android. The standard forum screen, viewed through a generic web browser, isn't well suited to access via mobile devices with small screens. Tapatalk adds a layer on top of the forum software that makes it much easier to both read and respond to posts for those who are visiting from mobile devices.

    Does Tapatalk have nag screens or other annoyances or performance issues?

    I don't use it, so I can't tell you from my own experience. But obviously this thread exists because Paul has been having some trouble with it.
