Reviews of TN3270

  • Still the best out there after 8 years

    I haven’t seen any of the bugs talked about in the poor reviews. It works well for the limiting situation of the iPad. It works well with a BT keyboard, and remember that the iOS interface for BT keyboards is problematic.

    If you need basic 3270 support, especially if you’re doing a lot of ISPF editing, this is your app.

  • Missed it by THAT much and NO support

    This handles the basics of logging in and accessing a mainframe, but has several flaws, some critical:

    - If SET FULLREAD ON is set in XEDIT to read all NULL characters on the screen (allowing typing after the end of a line with the characters jumping left), the emulator fails to work, with symptom being nothing useful happens after the user presses ENTER or of PF key.
    - App has a configuration setting for LU name, but doesn't send it to the host.
    - App has a configuration setting for what keys to show in the banner, but doesn't honor it.
    - App doesn't control keys to emulate PA1/PA2, critical keys on VM.
    - App doesn't honor turning off "Show banner on top of 3270 screen" configuration option.
    - Lower banner covers parts of bottom two lines, the input area for the VM/CMS command line on older iPads.

    Update: The author declines to examine any of these issues, claiming it must be my unique (actually stock VM) environment and "other users have zero problems" and to "make changes to the 3270 engine could give problems to other users".

    This app is not as good as it once was. An orange rectangle jumps around the screen as you touch it. You can zoom in, but not pan around. Very irritating.
