bboard reader apps

Does anyone know of a good bboard reader app for an iphone? I have heard of one that works for droids and iphones, but I cannot remember its name.

TIA...

I finally found it. It is called Tapatalk. It works with vBulletin 3.7 or higher,
so it won't work with nitromater, at least not until the software is updated.
It also requires the bulletin board owner to activate support for the reader.
I know what that means but they do not say how to do it. That is for
Shannon anyway.

Anyway, I tired the Straight Dope Message Board forum using this app and
it is very nice. No ads, easy to use interface. Beats reading the forum with
my phone's built in web browser.

Tom,

We are running the latest 3.8 series software for vBulletin. Over the next few months though we will be moving to a new platform. I view the mater on my droid and don't have any issues with it all. I have heard of tapatalk not sure how it would work here but I will look into it.

Thanks,
Shannon

I've never had a problem viewing the board with my iPhone. Why do you need an app for it?

Well, I don't really need an app for that (shoot me now, I just used that
phrase). It more like I am trying to avoid a pain in the a55. Using the
Facebook app is much easier than loading Facebook in the web browser,
so I am hoping to use something similar for nitromater and the like...
