I’ve had reccuring problems with Tapatalk and my SDMB password. Sometimes I suddenly can’t create threads. Have to log out and back on. Yesterday the SDMB crashed and 24 hours later I still saw no threads. I finally tried logging out and back on. Fixed it.

I have resisted creating a Tapatalk account. I certainly wouldn’t want it linked to Google. They harvest enough data about me.

I also have refused permission to access my location.

Have you created a Tapatalk account?  
Have you allowed them to access your location?

Vote Other if you don’t have a Tapatalk account.

Btw, does that account automatically save your board passwords and log you in?
