I mostly comp on iPad now but it does have its disadvantages. For some comps (mostly on fb) when it needs flash it doesn't work. It does have an automatic form filler in settings but I've never got mine to work properly! However it is fast and it took me a while to realise you can open more pages together by pressing the little + sign on the right at the top!
One thing I've noticed though...I'm not winning much lately since comping on iPad!Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!0 -
It is easy to enter comps on the ipad, but i'd still prefer comping on the laptop as it was taking me a lot longer on the ipad.
I use an app called "lastpass" to fill in the forms, which i actually prefer to roboform.

Could anyone tell me where about in settings I can find the form filler?
Many thanks0 -

Probably just coincidence I suppose but last year I won lots when using my old pc, this years been fairly quiet. I do however still use my old email addy for comping rather than the safari one on iPad but sometimes I still get confirmation on safari email address too!
I know it's just luck of the draw but it just seems odd that I don't win as much since using iPad!
Still a great gadget though!Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!0 -
The ipad I won arrived yesterday and I was planning to do my comping on it, but while it is absolutely fantastic for everything else, I think it may take me 10 times longer to enter comps on it! Autofill seems to be a bit random and I find it takes longer to flick between this site and the comp sites...I am going to download chrome and see how I get on with that...anyone else manage to do their comping on an ipad? :think:2020 wins: Petsafe Smart Feeder, Family ticket to Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live, Iconic Mascara, Maleficent DVD, Hemline Thimble Desk Organiser, Product of the Year Goody Bag, Inside Soap £50, Florette Salad, Midway DVD, Red Dwarf Bluray, Sponsor a Swan, Cosmo Subscription, Lavendar Plants, Core Balance Dome Balance Trainer, Yoga Fitness Mat, TV Choice £200

I couldn't cope on an iPad for comps. I really only use it for games and checking emails and this forum when my laptop is not turned on.Luck is believing you’re lucky – Tennessee Williams

I won an iPad too. Whilst I do not use it for general comping, I do like to do twitter comping on it.
I haven't really got to grips with how to do simple stuff on it, like copying and pasting. I am thinking of getting an app to teach me how to use it better.0 -
It took me a while to learn to c&p. If you press on the title etc that you need to c&p you get a box saying 'select, select all & paste' I generally click on select then it highlights it with a blue dot, just stretch the dot out to where you need to copy, then click copy and paste where you need to. Sometimes you might need to click on the little yellow mountain pic above, delete the http and paste in that box, click ok. I do this for pics.
A bit complicated but you soon get to grips with it!
The one thing that annoys me is sometimes when I type a word, it changes to a totally different word!Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!0
