Default Tapia talk ap pop up

Ok..it is getting annoying. Every time I open TOTV the Tapatalk ap appears on my IPad. I thought if I went there it would go away. I don't need to pay the $4.95 for the ap. this is doing just fine. Anyone know how to get rid of it?

Go to the home page on the IPAD and find the app.
Don't open it, but hold your finger on the app. The app will shake and have an x in the top right corner. Click the x and the app will be gone. Then hit the home button to get out of the screen.

It sounds like it's a pop-up ADVERTISEMENT for the app.
Go to SETTINGS, then SAFARI, turn block pop-ups to ON

Yep, tried that too. Sounds like no on else has the issue. Wonder if the op knows since it says this ap allows for Tap A Talk

I get the same thing on my iPad and have to hit cancel each time.....pain in the butt. If you figure it out, please let me know.

I think that Tapatalk notification is supposed to be a "one time only" notification.

I get it each time on my iPhone. Most of the time when I hit "cancel" it cancels the entire webpage and I can not view TOTV on my iPhone at all. Sometimes, when I hit cancel, it does go away and I'm in good shape, but not often. To say this is annoying is an understatement! I have greatly limited my viewing of this website because of the Tapatalk notification.

Looking at many threads on how to get rid of it really hasn't answered it. Seems like this developer is an annoyance who put it out there with no easy way to cancel it. Make sure no one signs up for it!

We aren't having any global issues with tap a talk. It sounds like it may be unique to your device.
