Meshtastic iOS app

App is generally good but I can’t seem to connect all of my nodes to it.
It’s almost like I need separate apps for each node and that’s frustrating.

Cool comms app

I’m hooked. Interesting off grid texting tech that actually works well!

Work in progress…

Have to be impressed with the amount of work that the developers put in to this open source project. Support, encourage and help motivate them.

Recent Version crashes

App has been great up to the most recent version. Now it crashes when trying to handshake with my iPhone. I also have noticed that the iPhone app seems to be limited in some of its options. I hope this is looked at as I would love to keep experimenting with these devices.

Amazing app, could not be better

I love how this app is setup, works amazing. Paired with a small board it is amazing!!

Cool But Missing Key Feature

Great app, works great once you figure out how to configure the radios.

However, the key selling point of this app is to allow for offline communication, but there is no way to download or import maps for offline in the app.

Since Apple just released an update to Apple Maps to support offline maps, I wonder if there is some way for this app to tap into that? Otherwise I'm stuck copying coordinates into another gps app to see where they are.

Very cool off grid text and location interface

The maps are so nice and detailed, and the messaging interface feels just like texting in iMessage!

IoS

Does not work on iOS as expected.

Updated now cannot see any nodes,

Updated this morning and now it says no nodes.
Went into Bluetooth to see nodes, wouldn’t connect
Deleted nodes so I could reconnect via Bluetooth and no nodes showing.

Cannot find ANY way to connect to my nodes

Response from developer

File a bug report if you are having issues. What an embarrassing way to treat an open source project.

great client

very well-made Meshtastic client. the developer is very involved with the community and seems truly committed to making the app as high quality as possible. thank you!!
