    I would assume it does, as Jman suggested to another user they use it in this thread:

    Yes, it works very well. There is one minor issue I continually have, but it doesn't affect the functionality of the app.

    It works better here than some of my other forums. Don't like that it doesn't embed videos and I have to open it in safari, but other than that it rocks.

    I guess I need to market this option better.

    eLightbars fully supports TapaTalk and I recommend it for anyone using a mobile device to access the forums. The stock vBulletin mobile web style is not that great and lots of people seem to be having trouble with it. That's why I always suggest using TapaTalk. I know it isn't free, but if you visit other forums, there is a good chance it will work there too.

    All I ask is that it doesn't auto-insert the annoying typical "Posted from my fancy-schmancy over-priced uppity-techy gizmo" spam tag.

    There are few things on the web I find more offensive.

    That is controlled by the user unfortunately.

    Anyone know how to turn it off? I hate it on mine. Why don't it even say evo instead of model number?

    On the iPhone 4S version, you get the menu at the bottom of the main screen when you first load the Tapatalk. Click on Settings and then Signature. You can then either edit the signature or just turn it off.

    It can be a PITA for me sometimes. Every now and then even when I am only running on 4G it tends to freeze up. Oh and now if there us a youtube link and I click on it it will not load properly or ask if I want to use the youtube mobile app or view it online. Not sure why.

    Yeah, YouTube links don't work. It inserts a comma and then just dies. Fairly new problem.

    The other problem I have is with unread thread counts. It says 138 of 248 loaded(for example). Then I try to load more, it goes thru the motions, and doesn't load more. Appears to be a problem with counting.

    The normal YouTube links work for me, but the shortened ones don't. I don't know if there is anything that can be done about that
