I also think the $3 is totally worth it. I don't have a laptop or anything fancy, so my smart-phone is my entertainment when I'm out and about. I usually never even bothered trying to use MVS since it was such a pain. I haven't messed with the uploader yet, but I'll be sure to try it soon. Looks good though!

I think I'm FINALLY getting a new phone Friday - Verizon sure did take long enough to get the iPhone, and I'm excited. About that and to try this software out; my phone is terrible for even trying to do something as simple as just trying to answer PM's/email when I'm out and about.

Now, what to do with my old phone...I'm thinking it may involve 2 tons of Swedish steel ;)

I have it on my blackberry and it works very well, but the BB sucks in general so it is very primitive compared to the iphone and android versions. I guess this is why they give the Blackberry version away for free.

The program crashes a lot on the iPhone but it is very quick in letting you navigate around the site and read/reply to things.

I picked up an iTouch and it is a lot better on there. I have not had it crash yet though. Maybe I am just lucky.

Hmm, never crashed for me. iPhone 3GS, 16GB model.

It actually hasn't happened in several days - I think it may have had something to do with the phone's connection to the site (it was happening a lot that day that the site kept going down). Plus, Verizon and/or Comcast internet service is spotty at best around here.

Mine's a 4, but you're probably running the same software if you've updated it recently.

When I select linked topics it takes me out of tapatalk to the full mvs website. Is there a way to keep it in tapatalk? I'm using an iPhone.
