New: action button PTT, widgets, live Lock Screen controls, Siri connect, and Apple Silicon Mac support. Native AllStar for Apple. No account, no subscription. OpLine - AllStarLink in Your Pocket Connect to AllStarLink nodes anywhere your iPhone has signal. OpLine is a fast, native iOS client for licensed amateur radio operators who want a clean, reliable way to get on the network without fiddling with desktop tools or generic SIP clients. KEY FEATURES Push to Talk Hold-to-talk or tap-to-toggle. Lock the mic when you need both hands free. Designed to feel like a real radio. Live Net Schedule Browse upcoming nets, filter by region or favorites, and set alerts before they start. Never miss a check-in. Smart Favorites Save your daily-driver nodes and the nets you actually attend. Group them however makes sense to you. Real-Time Telemetry RX/TX activity meters, connection status, and link tracking. See exactly what's happening on the network. Worldwide Coverage Connect to any AllStarLink node, from your local repeater to international hubs. Native iOS Built for iPhone with the polish you'd expect. Dark mode, responsive controls, low latency. REQUIREMENTS - A valid FCC-issued amateur radio license and call sign are required to transmit. - An AllStarLink node connection. Your own ASL3 Raspberry Pi node is recommended — see opline.app/setup for a free build guide. - Standard amateur radio rules apply: identify with your call sign, follow Part 97 (or your country's equivalent). WHY OPLINE Most AllStarLink clients started as desktop tools and got retrofitted for mobile. OpLine was designed iPhone-first: instant connect, sub-second PTT response, clean telemetry, and a UI that respects your time. No subscriptions. No ads. No data collection beyond what's needed to make the app work. Built by a licensed ham who wanted a better way to get on the air from a phone. NEW TO HAM RADIO?

OpLine 1.3 brings AllStar to your Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Siri. COMMUNITY Join other operators on the OpLine Discord: https://discord.gg/AbysJgqaM WIDGETS Touch and hold your Home or Lock Screen, tap the plus, and search "OpLine" to add: - Quick Connect Nodes — pick up to three nodes and tap one to connect. - Quick Connect — one tap to connect to your active node. - Upcoming Nets — the next AllStar nets at a glance; tap to open your nets. - Favorite Nets — choose the nets you care about; tap to open them. Touch and hold a widget and tap Edit Widget to choose its nodes or nets. LOCK SCREEN LIVE ACTIVITY Connect to a node and OpLine appears on your Lock Screen. Tap Talk to key up, tap Lock for hands-free transmit (the Talk button turns amber), and tap Disconnect to hang up. Disconnect takes two taps on purpose: the first arms an "End?" confirmation and the second hangs up, so a stray tap can't drop your call. Turn the Live Activity on or off in Settings. SIRI Say "Siri, connect to OpLine" to connect to your active node. NODE LIST On a fresh install, node search works immediately and the full list finishes loading in the background. RECENTLY CONNECTED Your recent nodes now appear in Favorites, ready to re-dial with one tap. APPLE SILICON MACS OpLine is on the Mac App Store for Apple silicon Macs. The space bar keys push-to-talk. VOICEOVER The new widgets and Lock Screen controls are fully labeled for VoiceOver. FIXES - Push-to-talk now keys nodes configured for phone-control mode. OpLine sends the radio key and unkey signals, so nodes that only key on that signal now work. Standard nodes are unaffected. - Cleaner audio and more reliable connections from the first syllable. OpLine now acknowledges every frame from the node, eliminating retransmissions that could roughen the start of received audio. - EchoLink links (3xxxxxx nodes) and other non-IAX2 links now appear in your linked-nodes list with direction and an unlink control. 73
