    Default Signatures and Tapatalk

    Here is a quick guide to avoid the mobile application Tapatalk adding geo-location and signatures to your posts on SRP.

    As you might be aware of, we don't use signatures on srp, and that includes geotags from moblie apps such as Tapatalk.

    I've added screenshots below from an iPhone, but this should be pretty similar on other platforms such as Android et al.

    What you want to do is go to the settings of the app(inside the app itself)
    There you will find both settings that needs changing.

    First there is the Geotagging.
    Make sure that is switched off

    Next there is the signature option a bit further down.
    Same thing here, make sure it is switched off.

    Just a reminder for new folks to turn off their phone sigs & geotags as per instructions above.
    Thank you.

    Opps! I forgot about the sig thing. Went in and turned mine off. TBH, maybe I need to get more up to speed with it but I'm not crazy about the app. I'd much rather peruse the forum with my tower or my laptop. It'll do if that is all I have though, so I'm glad to have it but I won't be using my droid to access forums if I have other options.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
