Ratings and Reviews
Interesting and Easy to use, lacks some features for now
I’m very excited for the progress on this app. The software seems there and it decodes and encodes FT8/FT4 just fine, but I hope it could be expanded to JS8call or other modes potentially in the future. It seems that running an integrated sound card such as the one in my Xiegu X6100 is not yet supported, as on both my iPad Pro 2020 and my iPhone 12 Pro connecting an Apple USB-C to C/Lightning cable was ignored and played the audio through the speaker. I hope in the future this method could be implemented as I would use it very regularly for SOTA in order to lighten my kit.
A will use this!
Obviously this is not the same as using a full size computer screen, but the developer has done a fine job of making best use of a small screen.
This app might be the last straw that gets me to buy the new iPhone with usb C. That is not really necessary. There are other ways to connect if you’re not in the mood for a new iPhone, but I was already thinking about upgrading.

Great New App for FT8/FT4
Thanks, Christoph, for this app! It works perfectly with my (tr)uSDX and iPad. Love the auto logging. Suggestion: add QRZ look-up option. With the QRZ look-up added, one could also access one’s own QRZ logbook and then from there upload the QSO to LOTW.
I am still trying to get the IFTX to work on transmit with my iPhone 8. It receives, looks like it is transmitting, but no output. The problem must be somewhere in my iPhone settings.
73 and keep up the good work! 73 de W B 3 B I Q.
