No microcontrollers in the iPad version

I installed it to use the Arduino Nano board with Arduino. Unfortunately it is not present in the iPad version. Feels like $7.99 wasted/lost. I have no use for the program without it. Thanks.

Abandoned

dev has abandoned the mobile release, paid release on Steam is still being updated while this version sits untouched for the last 4 years.

CRUMB

“Very” limited in the number of devices available.
I am not impressed. In fact I want my money back.

Would improve is you put modern components

Would like to see implementation of Texas Instruments IC or LTC series to.
