    Default Tapatalk on Android suddenly has ads

    Yesterday I started getting ads in the bottom of the forums on tapatalk for Android. Is anyone else finding this? It's not happening on the iPad so I'm thinking it's an android issue.

    Haven't noticed it myself. Having paid for the app they better not stick ads in my face!

    Forgot I'm using an ad blocker, which works for some stuff, not all though. Might be the difference.

    I don't know. It's intermittent, sometimes yes but sometimes no. I'll try screen shot it when they pop up again.

    It would be fine if it would embed images rather than attach them.

    I believe Tapatalk are deploying ads now, but I haven't seen any myself. That said, I paid for Tapatalk initially, so I might not get them anyway.

    To follow up I was getting an advertising bar at the bottom of the page on Android version. Since my post I haven't had any show up. Not really sure where they came from, or where they went.

    Just got an ad. I've attached a screenshot. Not sure why all of a sudden it came up.

    It earns revenue for the site, if that makes you feel better.

    I'm fine with that but why are they intermittent on android, non existent on iOS and why doesn't anyone else get them? The nuts and bolts of it is where do they come from and why is it occurring the way it is? I'm trying to figure out if it is because of some other cause or if it is indeed from the forum, from the app or somewhere else on my phone??
