Why is futures.io (formerly
BMT ) special?
It happens on several other forums I visit as well.

Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?

Tapatalk has been updated to the newest release.
I'd like to think this new version addresses the connection bugs, but it is not mentioned anywhere in their changelog , so I doubt it.

I actually think its worse... I've tried four or five times and couldn't get on at all since the new update.
There is not much I can do, except switch away from Tapatalk completely, which would piss off a lot of people who paid $1.99 for it or however much it is (Tapatalk cost, not mine).

Mike,
Is there a competitor product we could use which will give the same or similar results and allow us to access futures.io (formerly BMT ) via a mobile phone?
I think that the "pain in the neck" factor is worth more than the $1.99 cost for Tapatalk.
We could just look at this as a "bad trade"... and move on

Has to be server side (me), other than just using a web browser. Supposedly vBulletin has their own implementation, but I don't know if it works with vb 3.8 boards (like this one) or not. I will keep it in the back of my mind.

Yup developers really fubar'd the new release. Lots of people reporting the same problem I've been reporting for months.
I've uploaded a new patch release just now. Maybe it will help, but I have zero confidence in these people any longer...

I tried to logon well over a dozen times yesterday - and not one attempt was successful.
Very frustrating......................
I'll try again later on.
