  • Unable to Use; Password Too Long

    I am a licensed amateur operator. I recently registered for EchoLink on my PC. I routinely set passwords greater than 15 characters in length for security. During registration on my PC, I created a 16 character password and it was accepted.

    I downloaded the iPhone EchoLink app, entered my call sign, password and email. I received an error message that the password I entered was more than 14 characters. The app would not sign me into EchoLink. I researched and learned I cannot change my password for EchoLink. Therefore, it seems I will never be able to use the iPhone EchoLink app. Bummer!

  • Useless app

    Totally useless appJust doesn’t connect to whatever server… have complained before nothing ever got done about it .. useless appRather use allstar as it works well
  • Broken popup

    The app throws up a message in a popup every 10 seconds telling you not to use direct on cellular while you on wifi with a device that has no SIM card. There is no way to disable it and I have no idea why it needed to tell you that over and over and over again when it doesn’t even apply to the device you are using.

  • Brilliant app

    Fantastic app for keeping in touch with your ham friends
  • Fuss with fcc license

    Look. The fcc website is a paint enough to navigate. I went through all the steps to get my license but your app says it can't take a reference copy. Honestly that's too much effort on my part. Your system needs to be more user friendly. Maybe your app should query qrz or some other database to get my license instead of requiring the user to do it. We have ai now for crying out loud.

  • Almost There!

    This app is great. However there are some small things that can really make a difference.

    1) When browsing around while in a QSO, and you find a station that you want to connect to, you have to return to the QSO screen and press end before being able to connect. This is an unintuitive and extra step.

    2) I don’t know if this is asking much, but if it’s possible it would be great to have a scan feature where you can make a separate list of
    Stations to scan.

    3) Also maybe asking much- to have a icon or something next to stations that are actively transmitting. (so you can see it while scrolling through your favorites for example).

    However, being a free app with existing great features, this is a must for any Ham! 73!

  • ?

    Why can’t I log in, I’ve deleted the app, restarted the iPhone reinstalled it and I still can’t log in.
    Yes I have a call sign, yes I’ve used it before.
  • Great app but dated

    1. Great app but could do with an update to the UIX. The interface looks like Windows 95.
    2. Some basic features would make the app much more enjoyable - creating various “Favourite” lists, blocking (always appearing busy) to some call signs etc.
    3. Could take it to the next level by auto generating an eQSL card and sending it to the receipient!

  • Cannot connect

    Have not been able to connect for days. App needs overhaul to make it more efficient and improve interface. It’s been over a year since an update.
  • Works great on iPhone; no mic on iPad

    Will not activate the microphone on my iPad, running IOS 16.3.1.
    On the iPhone, works great. I don’t even see where tye app has asked for microphone permission. Please, help.
