  • Exceptional Application and fun to use 4.8

    By Johnk3go
    the package is fun to use and considering it’s over the internet and back to my 7610 its really a nice package. The CW, FT8 functions work well. The CW keyboard and decoding is good. I am pleased with the price point and the package is well thought out and very modular. I like the export of the log to the cloud and will do an adif import from the cloud export. It would be nice to have split windows but the toggling back and forth loses nothing in the contact QSL logging process.

  • Crashes constantly

    Crashes all the time and changes settings on my 705 on its own. Don’t buy. You won’t get a refund either.

  • Memory Scanning Limited/Cumbersome

    Nice app. Performs well, but seems a bit unfinished. It seems to lack features/layout that would make it pleasurable to use for scanning purposes. One of the most annoying scanning limitations is buggy scanning and the inability to scan memories by Group (bank). The author proposes a workaround which is to mark those memories you want to scan on-radio (faster) using the channel stars, but this is inconvenient and would upset any star-rated memory scanning setup you have on the radio, effectively nullifying that feature in the radio for at least one of the three star groups.

  • Amazing App for ICOM IC-705

    This is an incredible application which allows full wireless control of the IC-705 from an iPad. I had initial interest in running FT8 wirelessly while operating POTA. Since installing the app I have been amazed with its ability to do other modes as well. The waterfall display and control panel are very intuitive and easy to use. Moreover, the manual is well written and covers not only the setup of the software, but setup of the radio itself. I installed the app on my primary iPad and it worked perfectly. Then I installed it on my iPad mini and encountered problems connecting to the radio. I emailed Marcus and he very promptly responded with recommendations on fixing my iPad’s networking problem. I couldn’t be happier with this app and the service I received. The cost is well worth the value. Thanks Marcus. AA4GE

  • Superb app and great manual

    There are only a few apps which give one that transcendent feeling due to their ease of use and the functionality they give to the user. This is one of those apps. It is quite clear that the developer is knowledgeable about both software development and about amateur radio. It just works. The manual is well written, unusually complete and is done using the proper tools. There is both an online and offline (pdf) version available. I know that this app has a cost to it. But, trust me, this is one of those cases where you actually get more than you pay for. (And, writing and maintaining good software takes time and talent, making this a wise one time purchase.) I got the iPad version first. Then within an hour purchased the Mac version.

  • Fantastic App with excellent manual

    Most apps, even some of the better ones, don’t provide a comprehensive app. This app provides an excellent app. I had some questions regarding connection of the app on my iPad Air to my 9700. All my questions were answered with great clear explanations of the proper setup with my particular model radio. It’s packed with dentures too which enable you to do just about everything you want without additional hardware or software. It’s money very well spent if you own one of the Icom models supported.

  • Poor value

    By KodyKLB
    It kind of works on my LAN but half the time it wont successfully connect to the radio. When it does, the receive audio is very choppy and difficult to listen to. I think I wasted $50 on this unfortunately. Wish I could return it for a refund honestly.

  • The best HAM app for iOS

    Thank you Markus for your professionalism and hard work. This app is very useful for new Icom radios. For my opinion it’s mast have app. Probably next feature what many wants - is adding the voice digital modes like FreeDV. Also how about a FreeData or Winlink client inside smartphone.

  • Awesome app

    Great job on this application. I am using it with an IC-705. I have the radio in my Airstream trailer in the backyard, interfacing with an HOA friendly antenna farm. This app allows me to work it all from inside my home instead. Please continue to work on it and improve it. Thanks!

  • Choppy Audio, freezes up, had to reset my radio.

    By snifferofdaisies
    The audio through the iPad on this application is choppy. If you try to tune around using the panadapter it freezes up and stops responding altogether. The software reset something on my radio that made so that my hand mic no longer transmitted audio when using SSB. I’m sure it’s some setting buried deep in the menus, but I couldn’t find documentation on it anywhere and so had to reset my radio to get my hand mic back. There’s a lot of potential here, but my radio should be returned to working condition after the software is disconnected and I shouldn’t be seeing things freeze up or hearing choppy audio. Overall, this still seems a little bit half baked. If I wanted to fiddle with flakey software, I would have just kept using my Xiegu.
