User reviews

Does not perform (hoax?)

Clunky and not reliable. Does not work as advertised in my experience and I’m dissatisfied

Finally!

The app seems to work pretty well, I was able to decode ALE traffic while mobile with a Yupiteru 7100. The app seems to work equally as well with iPhone and iPad.
