They haven't been dishonest they never bait or switch nor swindled people, regardless of what they are saying. Yes as consumers we want the most for our money and most Android one app work both on phones and tables. But Tapatalk is not also not the only ones that have a product of both platforms. At least they have a product that works on both platform, for me the bigger sin is to have a phone app that scales up and looks underwhelming in tablet mode.

I don't think they where being deceptive about releasing a tablet only version if they released one app that supported both platforms they'd have to support them both. I'm guessing Tapatalk is a small firm that could not handle that kind of load. When I was part of their beta for Tapatalk 4(it was an open beta) they did have several issues on their phone ports. They'd have to have the staff ready to support both versions, that's work.

Tapatalk biggest mistake is confusing people with the remaining of their products.
