    I am just beginning my experimentation with APRS, and this app looks at least as good as any of the rest but if you could add an apple watch app, or mini-app, companion for the phone, that would be cool.

    Both website and app does not ID the Yaesu FTM-200 as a rig. Furthermore, the beacon text always displays a “_2” at the end.
  • An Essential iOS App for Hams

    If you have a MobiLink TNC and an iPhone, this app is a no brainer. I’ve used it on road trips, SOTA activations, and even to check into Winlink Wednesday when I couldn’t hit a Winlink gateway. Would love to see offline maps in a future update.
  • Great Little App

    I really appreciate it when a developer takes time to develop an app for a niche market. Paid version is a bargain. Many Hams complain that they need to pay a few bucks to support the hobby. If you want features and ongoing development be prepared to pay.
  • Works very well

    I really enjoy working with all aspects of APRS. I really wish that there would be a away of being able to delete messages in bulk instead of one at a time.
  • Great with Flaws

    Love the program but although it can receive APRS SMS messages it can’t send them. Needs to be a little more user friendly
  • Awesome App Must Have for HAM!
