Title: For the TapaTalk users
Post by: crow on February 05, 2023, 10:09:28 PM
To sign up with them to post pics, it comes to a section where you have to agree to give them access to your pics to be able to register

Does this mean they will have access to all the pics in your phone or just the ones your are posting thru their service

Thanks

My understanding is that's so you can pull the pictures that you are moving.  I believe that that's just so you can do that. I don't think that they are capturing all of your pictures.

Yeah, if I were you Crow, I'd be a little worried too.

Has Crow been taking lots of pictures of himself?   I'm sure if they had access to his pictures the FBI would come take his computer...  :TrainWreck1:

 :TooFunny:,  Nothing to hide, it's just the principle of the thing and an invasion of privacy.


last year I barely got pics to post, but they were that annoying to everybody huge size pic. and this was after hours of phone help by "Happy" on here who has the patience of Job.

so I tried to register with Tapatalk, got to the part where it wants access to your pics, got the heebeegeebees and backed out. but it did something to my phone and now it won't even post those huge pics or any size pic.

I would go thru with the tapatalk registration if anyone knows for sure your only agreeing to give them access to pics you are posting

I might of taken a pic of your drum circle, but it was more to have a record of your peacock reaping fan than pics of hippie chicks

My understanding is that the app needs access to your photos so that you can post directly from your phone. However, I have an app that keeps some stuff private, like social security card, credit cards, hunting license info, and selfies of the hundreds of women throwing themselves at me. Ok, one of those things probably ain't true. I ain't much of a credit card guy.

Your phone is asking if the app can access your pictures, just like some apps will ask if they can access your microphone or your location.  It is not loading pics up to the Chinese Spy balloon or anything.  If I have pics to post, I always do it from my phone, it is just easier to size them.

Go ahead and agree. It will only access the folder the pic is in allowing you to select it.

Now, if you should choose the wrong picture and post that, well, that's on you Crow... ;D :goofball:

Alright I'll try it, hopefully you all won't have to look at any ChevyChase European type billboard pictures while riding to your hunts this spring
