Hi there I am a regular Windows Central helper/informer and I love the app, I have found out really useful information regarding tech related issues, fixing or helping out fellow users with their tech woes be it windows phone or windows pc related and also reading up to the minute news stories.

In all this wonderfulness' I have one thing to maybe ask for. I have the app for Windows phone ie Nokia Lumia 520 and i don't have the option to upload pics onto the forums such as #TileArt or Lockscreen shares, I had to go to the PC site to upload my pics and I find it a little cumbersome to exit out the app and go on my laptop to upload a pic, if I were out and about I wouldn't have my pc to hand only my smartphone. Please try and add pic upload to your app as it would complete the whole Windows Central experience.

Yours Sincerely

I agree with you that photo uploads via the official WindowsCentral App for Windows Phone would be great!

Since this feature is not yet available, my workaround is to use the Tapatalk app, It is a free app, and it allows one to post pictures whilst on mobile.

Tried it its a bit of a faff like, that app is not so straight forward, I was talking on another forum about it and it seems like a bit of a long winded work around. I just used the PC and sure ill wait. The Windows central app would be complete then. 😊

It also didn't recognise my windows Central ID so I had to create a new one. Not happy with tapatalk!

Thanks for your active support and guidance to the members of our forum
Windows Central app itself uses the Tapatalk API to connect forums and so it would be better to use the Tapatalk client itself as a workaround... You previously posted that you are having sign in problems with the tapatalk app.. Was that fixed?

Now another tip you don't need to open the tapatalk app all over again...
Open the tapatalk app > in the forum list you get to see "Windows Central forums" long press on the forum and press Pin to start!
It will be added to your startscreen as a shortcut so you don't have to go thorugh it all over again to access the forums...
Also in the forums page click below the three dots (elliptical sign) to access the settings and customise it the way it suits you. Hope this is all about tapatalk.
