Does anyone use a tablet to play BBO? I tried a Samsung tablet about 18 months ago and it just didn't work well like a regular computer. I couldn't accurately use the stylus to press the numbers I wanted.

Any others have this problem or can anyone help?

Have you tried the mobile app? It doesn't have all the features of the regular web app, but it may work better on the tablet.

The app works OK on my Samsung tablet. I prefer the Web version on a regular computer, but the app will do in a pinch.

I don't know whether the 10.1 inch versions of the Samsung tablet were around 18 months ago to which the OP refers. Certainly on mine I have not felt the need to use a stylus.

It's a nasty situation. I prefer the Flash software, but I prefer using the tablet more than I dislike the android app. Not by much, though.
