### 4/5 — Works seamlessly

*2021-10-30, version 1.0.5*

It’s a great start to something big. I hope to see access to memory channel switching and group selection.

### 4/5 — Nice App!

*2021-06-08*

Easy setup , wish have option to transmit  that is why i saved one star  for the future maybe will be out on the next update 🙏🏻

### 4/5 — Works great

*2021-02-24, version 1.0.3*

I would love to see Kappanhang integrated into this app. Then we could have PTT and audio output over WiFi. I wonder if we will get, at the very least, Bluetooth PTT and audio functionality. That would be very useful, especially when the rig is sitting inside a backpack.

### 4/5 — Great potential

*2021-02-15, version 1.0.1*

Nice to see apps starting to be developed that take advantage of the capabilities that the 705 has.   Looking forward to seeing this app mature.

### 4/5 — Didn’t work for me initially, follow details below

*2021-02-14, version 1.0.1*

Initially:  I’m on firmware V1.20 of the Icom IC-705.  Sadly this software doesn’t seem to work with the radio.  I am paired to the radio but the device just keeps coming up with the pairing message.  Despite repeating this several times, no joy.

Resolution:  I was already connected to Bluetooth as you’d connect a regular device. Once I’d disconnected that link, I was able to pair the app to the radio.

It’s a solid 4* at the moment, but I’d give 5* if I was able to do more settings from the phone.

### 1/5 — “CI-V address mismatch”

*2025-04-15, version 1.0.5*

I’ve followed the instructions to resolve the “CI-V address mismatch” error to a tee but the error continues to pop up. The CI-V on the app and on the IC-705 are “A4h” and in the app “0XA4 (IC-705).”  The app shows “connected” and so does the radio.

### 1/5 — Yaaa….nice nothing burger

*2024-11-16, version 1.0.5*

It will not connect to my 705…..My iPad does, but the app will not.  A really nice taker of storage on my iPad.  Don’t download…does not function.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t establish connection

*2021-04-02, version 1.0.3*

I’ve tried and tried to get this app to connect to my 705 without success.

### 1/5 — Not Working

*2021-03-03, version 1.0.3*

I was able to pair my iPhone with the 705 but the app just sits there doing nothing. Not ready for prime time.

### 1/5 — CI-V mismatch

*2021-02-22, version 1.0.2*

App connects ok via Bluetooth but issues a CI-V address mismatch.  When I check , CI-V address in 705 and app settings agree.   Should work better!

### 2/5 — Problem

*2021-02-15, version 1.0.1*

The app connects then immediately disconnects.

The app now connects correctly.
When I change frequency on the radio it changes on the app, but when I change the frequency on the app it doesn’t change on the radio.
The band does not change it on the radio.
The radio changes the band on the app.

That fixed the problem, thanks.

### 3/5 — Wish it it had support for the 718!

*2024-09-02, version 1.0.5*

Wish it had support for the 718

### 3/5 — もう少し！

*2024-04-07, version 1.0.5*

iPhoneで使用してます。リモートでコントロール出来るのは何かと便利な時があります。欲を言わせて頂ければ、周波数設定方法にダイレクト入力やステップのUP/DOWNボタンが欲しいです。ダイヤル表示をクルクル回すだけでは、ちと辛いです。

### 3/5 — Basic

*2021-03-13, version 1.0.3*

I am able to tune, change bands and filters, nothing else. I hope the developers will further develop this to cover at least all the main functions and controls in the IC-705. Please let us know what the plan is for further development.

### 4/5 — Soweit Top!

*2023-09-23, version 1.0.5*

Wechseln von VFO zu Memory’s!
Die gespeicherten Freq. auswählen wäre noch super.

### 5/5 — Very useful app

*2025-03-08, version 1.0.5*

I use this in conjunction with SDR Connect and find it so useful. One thing that should be added is an indication of what STEP you are using when viewing the list of steps as I never remember the step shown on the main screen.

### 5/5 — Semplice e veloce

*2022-04-25, version 1.0.5*

Una app geniale, se. Bevono implementate anche altre funzioni diventa il TOP! Sarebbe bello anche che sfruttasse la connessione Wi-Fi così da poter anche demitizzare anche audio e quindi accesso anche da remoto…

### 5/5 — THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

*2021-08-25, version 1.0.4*

wonderful app and just what i was looking for... many great features... perfect for an iphone... wish it had a horizontal mode for the ipad, but still a great, no-nonsense app! FB, OM and 73!

### 5/5 — Simply Wonderful

*2021-05-29, version 1.0.4*

Many thanks guys for this fantastic app!

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2021-04-25, version 1.0.3*

Great when the radio isn’t visible - like when in the back pack. A dial lock function would be nice, as would access to memory channels - either in the radio or the app.

### 5/5 — Tolle Initiative!

*2021-04-07, version 1.0.3*

Vielen Dank für die Initiative eine remote control software für den 795 zu erstellen.

### 5/5 — Ic705

*2021-04-03, version 1.0.3*

Top App 👍👍

### 5/5 — It works now.

*2021-04-02, version 1.0.3*

Update: 

Something must have been incorrect on my radio. App works now..thanks for help. 

Iphone 6 SE

### 5/5 — 使えない

*2021-02-20, version 1.0.2*

iPhone8Plusですが、ちゃんとベアリング出来ているのにアプリのダイアルが回らない、バンドのボタンも反応しない、周波数も表示しない等全く使えません。

### 5/5 — Works fine with ICOM software v1.2

*2021-02-15, version 1.0.1*

Works great!
