PF added Tapatalk functionality

In summary, PF has joined Tapatalk, a mobile forum browser that is considered superior to the PF Mobile skin. It is available for download for 99 cents, and all proceeds go to the developers. Tapatalk is optional and the mobile skin will still be operational. For current Tapatalk users, PF can be found in the Science category or by searching for "Physics Forums". However, Tapatalk does not render LaTeX correctly due to its own template and lack of MathJax files.

PF has joined the bandwagon! Over the past several months we've gotten some requests and I've decided it's time to give it a try. Tapatalk is a mobile forum browser (iPhone, Android). It's vastly superior to the PF Mobile skin. If you hate the normal skin you can even use Tapatalk browser in Chrome. It does cost 99 cents to download the app. All of which goes to the developers. Using Tapatalk is completely optional. The mobile skin will still be operational. For current Tapatalk users you can find PF in the Science category or just search for "Physics Forums".

Good question! It in fact does not. It connects the content into it's own template and doesn't grab the MathJax files. There is nothing I can do about this I'm afraid.
