Roboform on iPad

Options
I now have a iPad mini and have absolutely no idea how to set Robofrom everywhere up on it. My husband seems to have logged in so I know it's compatible but It doesn't appear as a toolbar icon...any help gratefully received

    Roboform is not compatible with Safari on the ipad - I think it is meant to work with Chrome but I havent actually tried it.

    On my iPhone, I can log into websites, within the Roboform app - so it's fine for the odd competition, where I have a direct link, but not so easy to use MSE with it.

    I've noticed some things - e.g. some FB apps - that don't work on Safari on the iPhone will work through the Robo app though, which is useful... :)
  • I couldn't get RoboForm on my ipad - if you want it mainly for filling in comp entry forms - have you enabled the form filler within the ipad? I presume its same for ipad mini as for ipad -

    Go to CONTACTS
    Make a contact of yourself, with all your details etc
    TAP SETTINGS
    TAP SAFARI
    TAP AUTO FILL
    Make sure 'USE CONTACT INFO' is on (you can also enable names and passwords to be saved at this section)
    Then when ever you at a comp form in future, at top of keyboard it says 'auto fill' and you just tap that when you at a comp form and it fills it for you! :D
    please note it doesn't work for every single form going, but there again, RoboForm doesn't either!)
    I found it just as usefull as RoboForm when I solely comped from my ipad :T

    The Safari form filler (and Chrome autofill) used to turn entry boxes yellow (not sure if it still does?) - there were never any firm conclusions on whether this was a problem, but some thought it might be...

    I remain unconvinced either way on the yellow box issue, but always turn them white by deleting the last letter, and re-entering (I usually use Roboform - but for the forms RF doesn't work with, Safari autofiller does).

    Hi! I use roboform on ipad. It's more of an independent app than a toolbar add on for your internet.

    It can be a pain if you want to enter the comps where you need two windows open.

    It's best for itv comps, but it doesn't fill phone numbers or postcodes correctly.

    It's not the best, I've never used it on a laptop or PC. I do find myself doing a lot of typing, but my laptop is broken :(

    A Laptop is on my comping wish list :rotfl:

    Thanks to everyone who posts! :T
