I downloaded a free app from the Android market. I don't know what this forum runner business is about.

Edit: oh I see, when you click OK on the pop-up it takes you to Forum Runner. I just did a search and downloaded the app Northamericanmotoring.com by Internet Group Auto Brands. It said it launched today.

Edit : Getting server error - The remote server sent an unknown response.

Well I was hoping for tapatalk compatibility since I already have tapatalk and I think all the other popular Mini forums are tapatalk compatible so not looking forward to the prospect off having to use yet another app.
Also, forum runner doesn't have the best reputation out there. I'm hesitant to drop $1.99 on that app.

Oh Joy, I'm so looking forward to hitting the cancel button every time I open NAM on my iPad from now on. Is there any way to disable this?

I would love to have nam on tapatalk. It makes navigating forums so much easier and quicker, especially in areas of low signal, like my job. I'm quite sure the forums will get more traffic when users can access it whenever and wherever they want

Forum runner really? What a crap choice but at least it is something. Why does IB have to make things so difficult?

And here's my post from NAMotoring. Perfect! Yay! Thanks to those that made this happen. Not sure why it has to be that visitors get directed to a pay app but searching finds this...

It's not working for me; I still get that weird server error. Are you on Android or iOS? I'm using Android (Galaxy S3)

Wait a minute, just did a search in Google Play for North American Motoring and NorthAmericanMotoring.com app showed up, and it's free. Gonna try it out.

Edit: Got the error message.....unknown response......software plugin outdated or having conflict.

NAMotoring app that I posted from was iOS. You have a MINI aren't you required to have an iPhone? ;-)

It even does push notifications very well.

Here is the link to the app in the Google Play store:

NorthAmericanMotoring.com

Based on the URL, it looks like maybe it is a site specific version of Forum Runner? Anyway, the couple reviews indicate it does not work. It did not work for me - same error as MYT MSE.

Trust me......I want one. I'm the only one amongst my wife and friends with a droid and they remind me daily. My wife's wifi and battery are 10 times better than mine. 4 more months and I'm stealing her upgrade and gonna be the only one with an iPhone 5.

Did you update the app? They posted a new version today. Mine didn't work until the update.
