What would it take to not be pestered about iPhone apps and mobile themes almost every time I reload a page?

I was just about to post the same thing.
When on the iPad, I'm asked to buy the crappy little app for $1.99 before and after I log in.

... drop a cookie and stop asking.

I have cookies for visited sites enabled. I have flushed the cookie jar.

If there is some other trick required let me know.

BECAUSE ASKING ME IF I WANT TO USE THE IPAD APP EVERY TIME I CHANGE PAGES IS MAKING ME mildly agGRAvaTED.

And it makes me want to spend more time on vortex or the 'vette forum.

Either service is faster than light, or the behavior of the normal site on the iPad is spastic. Or something.

Now, for no apparent reason, there is no incessant nagging about the iPad App. FFS.

^^You're lucky. I'm still putting up with this BS.

This is very annoying. IB is badgering me to purchase their app that is overwhelmingly panned as crap. WTF?

No. It's BACK!!!

I'm going to bet its a cross-site cookie IB's dropping.

Anyone with an iPad what to test by putting Safari into two-bit CookieWhore mode? (Accept all cookies...)

Tried AAC and that fixed it. But then, returned to "visited" and it's STILL fixed, since i now have enough IB cookies i guess. Happy if it sticks.

Ya, it's back - totally frustrating, how is it that more folks aren't noticing this.

There is a good reason you don't see it any more, the pop up has been turned off. Period.

Because 50% of Rennlist members are married and have a nagging spouse that pops up?It is called, riding the apex of a married app

Apps are a must but now no longer a pop up issue on here
