Usually when I sign on to the website I just click the "New Posts" button to get caught up on any new posts since the last time I checked the site out. Up until now that has worked great and I don't miss a single thread. I got the Tapatalk app for my Iphone which also worked great and had no issues between the two. I've recently upgraded to a Samsung S4 and installed the Tapatalk app on it. The app works fine for me on the phone, however now whenever I get on the website version the "New Posts" button pulls up only a few of the most current posts, usually posts from just today and that's it, regardless how many days it has been since I've been online.

Is there a setting or something I'm missing on the app that is basically making it look like I've logged in every day? I can go all weekend without getting on the site nor opening the app on my phone, yet I log on Monday and it only shows a few posts from that morning. I'm the type of person that doesn't like missing anything so this bugs me haha.

I've uninstalled the app just to verify that was the issue and so far everything reverts back to normal without the app on my phone.

Just a idea check your user CP thread display options and ensure it is set use forum default. NOT set to show post from last two days or what ever other options that might be there.

The only thing I had changed was the "Forum Skin" which I had selected the black/white selection. I set that back to Forum Default.

I had no issues when using my Iphone so that's where I was thinking it was a phone issue. That maybe my Galaxy loads the app once a day to update or something.

I deleted the tapatalk app because of how horrible it is to navigate and understand what your posting and where and what not... I could just be half retard but I just jump on my browser and have DD saved as a favorite now.

^^^ I think I'm just going to go that route as I don't use Tapatalk for anything else. And since the S4 actually has a big enough screen to be able to navigate the forum with my fat fingers that may be the best way to go.
