Ratings and Reviews
So far so good!
Been looking for a good APRS app since I switched to an iPhone a few years ago. This app is a big step in the right direction!
4 stars for now to give room for improvement. The app is super easy to use and I was up and running in less than 2 min! It does 80% of what I want out of the box. Awesome!
Constructive feedback that would get me to 5 stars:
- it needs a messaging interface. A way to send / receive messages between stations or receive bulletins. And a way to view old messages / threads. Similar to the Messages interface on iOS.
- please let us display the call sign of a station on the map. Or make that a configurable option.
- please let us configure the distance to filter packets on the APRS-IS network. I might want to see more / less than 100km.
- please add the ability to beacon automatically every x min or x miles or something like that.
This is definitely a step in the right direction and could fill a huge void on iOS for APRS apps. I’d definitely consider paying for more functionality. Thanks!
Good
Not a bad app but I dumped it for one that will beacon. If this one beacons I wasnt able to find out how to find that option. I prefer one that will beacon my location at intervals VS me having to tap a green bar every 10 minutes.
But other than that the app was decent. Seemed to work as promised.
Very nice and simple
I love the simple interface to this app. And it’s open source too!
One thing I am seeing is that it doesn’t work well with Vox. It needs a setting to allow a “start tone” to trigger the Vox and an adjustable delay before the transmission. This of course would go hand in hand with an auto-beacon feature.
Thank you so much for putting this out there for free. It’s hands down the best approach to this. Keep up the good work!
