Additionally, you can manage your commands in groups.

SimplePi has been tested with the latest releases of

SimplePi works on all Raspberry Pi models.

Alex Bori ,

Need unannounced subscription

Sudden and unannounced “End of trial” alert. The app needs a subscription to work. Look elsewhere; don’t loose you time.

Helooooooooooo ,

Ill gladly pay 6 bucks a year

I find this app very useful with a cheap reoccurring yearly payment. Highlyrecommend.

Developer Response ,

Thanks so much!

The extortion screen came up in about 5 minutes. Wasn’t worth the download.

Pro tip: If you want to make people sign up for your service, give them a reason. I’m not sure it even lasted 5 minutes before the extortion screen showed up and locked me out of the app controls. It might be a decent app but How could I know with such a short time to review. There are other apps available that won’t lock you out. I suggest using them instead.
