Export problems
Seeing lots of positive mentions of this software, I thought I would give it a try. It works at accepting and storing QSO details but it is useless to me because I cannot export the log (adi) file via Gmail on my iPad. I found plenty of other users that started to complain about this in October, 2024.
When you try to export via Gmail the app states that Gmail will not accept the adi file as an attachment. So, for me, this was a waste of$5 and a few hours of installing, using, and troubleshooting.

A must have for POTA
I love this app and use it for POTA. I highly recommend this to anyone doing POTA or portable operation of any kind. The only two CONs I can find are. 1. There is no way to import a log if you already deleted it, so don’t delete them. 2, no rig control. I am constantly forgetting to update frequently I’m on so I always have to go back and fix.

5 Star app
In my opinion… HAMRS is the easiest to use and most user friendly app that is available. It is very simple to learn and use for logging contacts in POTA. Everything that Parks on the air requires for a valid log is in this app.
Needs to be updated!
For the high price for this App, you would think the developer would keep it updated often. Now that all the POTA parks have new identifiers this App is becoming useless.
Save Your Money - No Updates
* QRZ Callsign lookup no longer working
* Maps don’t appear to be working
* POTA Prefixes changing soon
Used to be a solid, quick-use option, but has fallen short over the course of the last year. Two stars for effort. Hope all is okay with the software designer, but cannot give it a thumbs up in its current state. Sorry for the poor review, but it is what it is.

Was Great
This was once a great program for POTA logging but the developers lack of updates has made it all but useless. It does not have the capability of recognizing parks over -9999 and if not updated soon will not recognize any park numbers. I hope it is updated because it has the potential to be the perfect logging tool for POTA.

Updates needed.
I wish I had known this app wasn't being supported anymore when I bought it a month ago. Feeling ripped off. Lots of new parks near me but this app is useless for them. Wish I could get my money back.
Great app with some room for excellence
Layout on iPad and iPhone is excellent. Syncing between devices would be excellent as well as some sort of remote sync of logs with sites like qrz.com or any other appropriate logging sites. I’m excited to see what comes next. I would be happy to pay a monthly fee if those options arrived.
NEEDS A FIVE DIGIT PARK UPDATE
Come on man… you can do better… This app WORKED great until five digit parks hit the USA…. Now not so much. Please update the app!!! Until then it is PAPER AND PENCIL for me!!!!
Map is inop
I got this app for the easy of logging QSO’s and to see a map of the contacts. Upon entering my data and that of the contacts the map is blank. I deleted the app and reloaded it just in case. No map regardless of what enter and I have verified the app does have access to my position in settings. Not happy

Simple
Thanks so much for keeping it simple. I just wish the QSO map worked on iOS .
Could be great
I probably should've read better, but this could be such a great app with one big feature: syncing. Which is not a hard problem. Apple offers it with iOS and qrz.com also offers it.
Without syncing, its really not useful outside some specific situations.

Simple, useful , but be aware!
Seemed perfect for field use, but time does not advance automatically. Wound up with several calls at the same moment. Could not reconstruct the contact times from memory.
Updates
App is very helpful, but the qso map doesn’t work on my iPhone. Also, is there any update on adding a import feature to move logs between devices?
Implemented all the suggestions I’d made previously
This app is great. It’s progressed from being quite buggy and lightweight to a really serious contender for #1 logging app.
I use this to log my contacts once I get off the hill, but I feel like I could probably use it in real time now that it’s matured.
I like being able to enter the times retrospectively, and I also like the extended keyboard for entering callsigns. It could be useful to have it on the MGR as well, as it seemed to only be available on the callsign.

The only logger needed!!
Recently found POTA and having HAMRS has saved my bacon a couple times while in an activation. The design is exactly what’s needed to organize a log while working through a massive pile up! One aspect that would be largely beneficial is having them sync across all devices, so no matter what you have with you, all QSOs are there.

Works very well but could use a few additions
This app is fantastic - I’ve been using it for SOTA and it works exceptionally well and looks good - logs can be uploaded right to the SOTA website.
A couple things I’d like:
* When I set my call sign as /P, it seems to need to be modified on EVERY QSO, which is very time consuming. I just edit the ADI file after now.
* There is no notes field for a QSO - why not? Seems pretty critical!
* The name field seems to default to all capitals - sort of annoying.

Great app, needs a couple more features
Clean interface, very easy to use. Templates and QRZ lookup are great. If there was a satellite log template and an option to sync logbooks across devices/platforms and/or with LOtW or QRZ’s logging system (for which I’d happily pay), I’d give it 5 stars without hesitation.
Numerical Keyboard
Absolutely spot on - extended number keyboard - now I can ditch my physical keyboard and reduce weight whilst portable. this app after a shaky start is going from strength to strength, thank you
Looks like a great way to log POTA
This may make my field paper logging easier. There is one feature that might improve it: Keep the numbers permanently above the keyboard to simplify typing callsigns. (The QRZ app does this.)
