### 1/5 — Scam for zero dollars

*2026-03-18*

Did not let me connect my brain stems to the local hobo population. 10 years of planning for my evil scheme down the drain

### 2/5 — No longer connects

*2025-04-26*

Crashed when attempting to connect to a known-good mx2201 logger with a brand new battery.

### 1/5 — I would give it 0 if I could.

*2025-01-27*

The old app actually worked. Now I’m forced to use this garbage that fails configuration every time I try. It doesn’t tell me why. Why do companies do this, they always take something working and make it worse.

### 2/5 — ビューワーの使い勝手

*2025-01-16, version 2.2.2*

タイトルの件、前のバージョンではグラフの拡大縮小が手軽にできたのに、今は出来なくなってる。
昔のようにビューワーを戻して欲しい。

### 2/5 — Communication Fails

*2025-01-13*

I am having repeated failure in communication with a device that otherwise appears to be working properly.  Can’t even update firmware on the device.  Hoping an update is forthcoming to resolve.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-10-25, version 2.2.0*

User-friendly, a great in-field substitute for the Desktop software

### 3/5 — Labeling error

*2024-06-20*

Since the recent update all of my labeling I’ve assigned doesn’t hold or display. Only displays the serial numbers now… I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled it again with no resolve! This is the first issue I’ve had since owning 5 devices for the past 6 years. Thoughts on fix?

### 1/5 — Progressively gets worse

*2024-06-18, version 1.8.1*

Any chance developers are going to fix the data viewer which is now essentially non functional. Can’t resize/zoom and the axis text remains so tiny you have to guess what the values are anyway.

### 1/5 — No use for Hobolink RX systems

*2024-05-27, version 1.7.3*

This would be so helpful with our RX system. The web display is not helpful driving around in a ute with a laptop on your lap. App usability with our RX, not MX, system would be greatly appreciated.

### 1/5 — Issue with apple app

*2024-04-15*

Says datalogger is corrupt. Then ask to update firmware. When accepting it loses connection. Grabbed my android and downloaded hoboconnect and i was able to download firmware. Android app seems much more stable and no issues. Kick rocks with open toed shoes apple.
