Will not launch

Not possible to use this version of the app. Please update this.

Bluetooth Issues

Bluetooth will not connect with Heltec. Works only over WiFi.

iPad version completely broken

App won’t even launch. Blank screen. Nothing else.

Does anyone even test this?

Some recent update doesn’t even open anymore. Just crashes right back to the Home Screen.

Crash to “Desktop”

last updates made this unusable

App keeps using location even in background?

I didn’t have this issue before. The app keeps using my location now even when not open? I set permissions to only when open.

Crashes

The app doesn’t even open anymore. Screen goes black then the app crashes to the home screen in less than a minute.

Was fine

App keeps crashing.

Newest update is a bust

Used to work well. Newest update doesn’t open on iPhone

Won’t launch

Non functional

Lates version crashes at launch

Title says it all

Usually works ok

V2.7.19 broke the app on iPad. Just a blank white screen that eventually crashes.

App opens to blank screen

The app has already had several odd bugs but now it’s literally unusable.

Much less buggy

Went from crashing all the time to being stable again, and with some additional features sprinkled on top. Very nicely done!

Fix Bluetooth Pairing

Unable to forget radio in App when directed to “Settings > Bluetooth”

Awesome Work

This app is in constant rework. Kudos to the developers for creating an awesome app. Loving the new features. Please keep them coming.

Great!

App is constantly improving and being updated with desirable and requested features!!

Great app BUT

The most recent update to the app removes the modem preset “long range slow”. I was using this for a cruise ship and now can no longer use it.

Works OK, but August update deleted message history

August update seems to work more or less OK—except it deleted the entire history of past messages from all channels, as well as any older nodes in the list. And the map no longer shows range circles (EDIT: give them time to show up). Minor thing: the node list no longer had a total number of nodes at the top just “…” where apparently a 4 digit total no longer can fit. Tip: drag the edge of the node list and you can make it bigger to show the number. (This is on iPad.)

Needs simple QoL

App is awesome but is missing some very simple improvements:
1) Renaming other nodes with an alias should allow renaming of both the long name and the short name. That way, in Channels, DMs, and Map View, we can easily know who’s who without hard naming nodes with private information or deciphering cryptic names.
2) Similar to above, we should be able to add small photos to nodes of our choice.
