User reviews

Do not bother

No pgup, pgdn, f keys. for iseries terminal, so its pretty much worthless.

Worthless even at zero cost

It doesn't work and the screen shots appear to be from the very expensive version. It comes through set up for Japanese and some of the terminology is misleading (IP address instead of IP address or System name).

I can't even sign on--the screen comes up but the keyboard doesn't work on my iPad 3.

Sigh...

Good function

So far I enjoy the app, unfortunately a lot of our as/400 requires the use of 'F' keys. (F1-F24).
If this feature is added it would be a 5 star for sure.

Works

Free demo version works as expected. No function key support. Problem is the price. With full version costing twice as much as competitors, I will probably take a chance on another vendor's product.
