Doesn’t work 🤦
It sucks
Can’t get past settings window
How do I get past settings window to use please would give full marks otherwise
Works as advertised
The app does work, but requires some tweaking/experimenting with the microphone and speaker placement, signal/antenna.
Pretty good app, would like to see an update though. I copied signals from two different radios, an Icom ICR6 Communications Receiver and an XHDATA D808 portable shortwave radio . Both performed reasonably well tuned to 130.551 mHz Air band (AM).

Requires some audio tweaking
First make sure you can get the RF from the planes as high quality as you can (good antenna, receiver tweaks).
Then it will require various experimenting placing the iPhone in good position so the phone mics can hear the transmission. And also experiment with the receiver’s volume.
You will see the data scrolling on the phone screen if you get all of the above correct. Now look at your data for quality decodes. If the data looks garbled, play around with the settings and positions again.
And....in the app’s configuration, make sure you have a file selected to store the data on the phone. Another thing I really dislike in the app is that if you open another app, all the data displayed in the ACARS screen goes blank and then if you want to view the data, you have to open the stored data files. It does this everytime you goto another app on your phone.
I want to try this app after adding an external microphone to my iPhone 8+ via a splitter cable. I really hope this will help with the decoding of crap data to quality data.
Good luck - when all is tweaked correctly, it is a great app. But honestly, use PDW on a PC.
