    What's everyone using to view TW on their phones? I've been using a shortcut to the safari browser on my iPhone, but getting tired of having to login every time I open it. I tried Tapatalk, but doesn't look like TW is on the app.

    Any advice?

    TW dropped the support for tapatalk after several security issues were discovered. I view TW from safari on my iPhone but I keep myself logged in so I don't have to keep logging in every time I open TW in safari.

    That used to work for me, but for the last couple months it won't keep me logged in. Thanks for the info though...

    Chrome keeps me signed in all the time. The mobile site is quite convenient IMO.

    Safari always keeps me logged in. When logging in, did you ever check the box that says 'Stay logged in'? (Or something along the lines of that)

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Sleipnir on Android keeps me logged in, unfortunately the mobile version of TW is pretty... ugly. @tcBob any word on that Tacoma World app you guys were working on?

    I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. What I did was create a shortcut on my iPhone desktop. When I click that link, it makes me sign in. I'm betting I'm using the wrong shortcut that pushes me to the splash page.

    First world problems...

    Maybe setup your shortcut to take you to the home page rather than the login page?

    I just always have a tab open in Chrome with it, and I'll refresh whenever I feel like viewing it. I have the shortcut too, but every time I hit it, it opens a new tab and can get out of control.

    I was always a huge fan of Tapatalk for the push notifications alone, but aside from that, I find the mobile view wayyy easier to navigate than the app.

    A TW app would be AWESOME! And I'm sure everyone would be willing to dish out $0.99 for a clean/well working app.

    I think the mobile interface is really clean, simple, and easy to use. Idk what you're smoking, but you best get off of it.

    It runs terribly on my phone. I'm not sure if the browser is shit (all mobile browsers are shit) or my phone is as close to falling apart as I think it is.

    So your issue is that you can't stay logged in for some reason, correct? Why don't we just take care of that issue then.

    Slow phone crew checking in.

    Posting for anyone else running into this. @mahaloTaco

    Try this...make sure you're logged in, then intentionally log (via You > Log Out):
    upload_2016-7-5_9-40-4.jpg


    Then log in again and see if you stay logged in. If not, PM me.
