NEW PALMTALK FEATURE - FOR PHONES & TABLETS


Recommended Posts

Posted

With the new PT Update complete, there are some new features that you may soon discover. Here is one that has been added for the Web App that makes getting to PT on your phone or tablet fast and easy. 

Add a nifty icon to your Home Screen in iOS (iPhone/iPad) or Android.

If you have already added such a short cut - you may need to delete and add PT to your Home Screen again to add the new easy to see icon.

When you added it to your Home Screen, that is the page you were on.

You need to add it from whatever page you wish it to first display when you click on it.

And FYI - clicking on the main title logo at the top left of every page will always take you to the Main Menu page.

Do you have to be a member to get this

Everyone here should be a member of the International Palm Society!

Without the IPS to pay the bills, PalmTalk would cease to exist.

Not to mention all the good works of this non profit society. 
 
There is now even a FREE level membership, no payment information collected. 

https://palms.org/membership/

Please share the membership link and the new website PT app with everyone.

Thanks so much.

The only reason I asked if you have to be a member is because I can’t get it to work
