It'll be your mobile provider and/or ISP's DNS a bit slow on the update. Change your DNS on your phone from ISP provided to some free public ones...

CloudFlare - 1.1.1.1

Brilliant, cheers Graham, that sorted the phone. I changed it to use cloudfare, that didn't work, set it back to Auto and its got RAWK on the phone again.

EDIT:- Changed laptop to Google and that has fixed it on the laptop too

It won't let me login on Tapatalk, it gives an error msg that fills my phone screen saying something about the server but I can login on the website which I hate using on my phone as everything's so tiny!

I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app twice now but it's not letting me login and I've not a clue about emptying caches or other tech stuff.

No doubt it is shite, but without any better apps it really is the only option for mobile. Totally understand you guys reluctance to deal with Tapatalk issues though.

I used to but enlarging the font and  scrolling left and right to read sentences was a pain in the arse. I didn't like Tapatalk at first but now I'm used to it I find it loads easier. Even using the site on a small tablet annoys me now!

I spoke to Tapatalk support and they said that this is a case of outdated plugin and that they reached out to Rawk owners to hopefully sort that out. So I would think you have an old version of Tapatalk on the old phone)

Probably.
I really miss being able to login via Tapatalk - can currently browse without logging in but can't do any replies or view 'my threads' only.
Hopefully one of the technical mods with a bit of spare time won't mind awfully looking at the updated plugin...

It's the same version.

It's shit without it as trying to view the site on a phone when the font is miniscule and I have to use my phone in landscape rather than portrait so I can enlarge it enough to read without needing to scroll across the page and back again.

It is what it is I suppose, if the site owners won't or can't do anything to get it working again there's not a lot I can do.

I've been viewing, posting, editing, moderating and enjoying RAWK on a smartphone for years now without too much issue - I just get used to where everything is. Also, rarely I put it in landscape mode - more annoying for me that way - horses for courses I guess...
