Improved Mobile Experience including Tapatalk

Alright, alright alright!  

2 exciting announcements today:

1) Tapatalk is back!  You all asked and we delivered!

2) We also have a PWA now, so if you don't want a mobile app like tapatalk you can install our PWA and still have a quick shortcut on your home screen and get push notifications.  PWA is also available on desktops for a really cool single app experience?  Not familiar with PWA, click the icon in the address bar with the downarrow to install the c4 app on mac or windows!

Just a heads-up for those who use iOS: Apple doesn't support push notifications in progressive web apps as they limit what service workers (the backbone of PWAs) can do w/Safari on iOS. And no, PWAs really don't work w/iPhones in other browsers if that's your next question. Still awesome to have this PWA option!!

dang, ok, I don't use iOS that much.  I know PWAs on Mac, Windows and Android are great

Thank you, Mitch! Have pretty much dropped off the forums without tapatalk. I use tapatalk for other forums and noticed some fishy "new device login" emails randomly popping up. It seems like whenever I open up tapatalk now, I get this email come through. Anyone else seeing this?

I did enable some new security features that notify you on account login.  I recommend switching to using a local account to using a federated identity like Google or LinkedIn so that you don't have that problem.
