Useless product

Always crashes and unresponsive if the author is not supporting this product he should take it off market!

correct path

Cant find the correct path

Great app

I love this interface and use it often, well I did until PMDG’s B737 for MSFS. Is there any chance of this app being available for MSFS?

Response from developer

If the PMDG release SDK for the MSFS then I will look into it and try to integrate it to my app. Thank you.

Close but not complete

No text is visible but buttons work

Unreliable

This app is very unreliable.
It works well ONLY when it works which is once every million time you try to use.
This is waste of money

Response from developer

Hi. Did you know there is manual connection mode for this app? Also, check that your local network bandwidth and network load (download something). Thank you.

Terrible. Not worth a penny

I spent $7 on this and was able to connect with no issues. However nothing shows on the screen and the buttons on the app don’t match the buttons on the MCDU in game so I press menu and it brings up the fix screen I game etc. As I said nothing shows up on the screen on the app so you have to look at the computer anyway to see what your doing. Absolutely defeats the purpose and is a total waste of money.

Great App

I recently downloaded this app and it’s associated PC software and I am delighted with it. I have used it on PMDG 777, 747 and 737 flights and they all worked perfectly.
It was easy to get connected and operational, no problems at all. I would highly recommend this app to any PMDG user.
Cheers

Waste of money

Extremely complicated to make it work. I have not been able to use the app on the iPad. Waste of money.

Response from developer

All you have to do is run the server first and set the path for your sim. You don't need to input ip address or port. After that, run the simulation and your app and it will work. If you need more information, contact me via ihopi73@gmail.com please.

Waste of money

Looks good on the apple store, but don’t be fooled. Not true images. Sure you get a fmc on your apple device, but no text in the box, you have to use the PC screen to see what the buttons do. Sorry I donated $13 for a useless piece of app.

Response from developer

Please, check the manual site or even try to contact me before you leave a comment like this. Or at least try to close all the program and re-run the simulator. If you try to solve your issue, send email to ihopi73@gmail.com with your server screenshot. I will guide you how to resolve your issue as best as I can. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIyku0oEZWg&t=2s this is ver 1.6 trailer

Great app but...

I was using this app for about a month and suddenly today the app doesn’t work properly I get no image on the iPhone If I open the Cdu in the sim it does receive the input but I see nothing in the iPhone

Just doesn’t work

So I bought this and opened it for the first time and just dident work takes you to a page for a link and it just doesn’t work. Would not recommend do not buy

Response from developer

It caused by various problems. Like admin rights, wrong folder, wrong server version.. etc. Contact me via ihopi73@gmail.com. I will guide you how to fix it.

Great App

All keystrokes respond no more mouse great app to use with Ipad or phone. Customer support has been responsive and helpful. Price is competitive. Update to PMDG 737NGX u was free and done quickly.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review. I will keep update this app.

Save your money

It just doesn’t work , and no answers to my emails

Response from developer

I didn't get any e-mail from you. Please, send e-mail again to ihopi73@gmail.com. And one more thing, update 1.9 and try again please.

Setup easy but...

So it’s all connected and looks great, but whatever I type on the CDU is duplicated - so if I type EGKK in the scratchpad it comes out EEGGKKKK? Can you help?

This will be awesome when it’s fixed though

Response from developer

Contact me via ihopi73@gmail.com please. Send cdu server screenshot with it. I think reinstall PMDG will fix your problem. Remember deregister PMDG product first.

Cannot get the app to work

I can’t get the app to work going to request my money back. Should be a simple download and use app like every other app I’ve ever used before.

Response from developer

contact me via ihopi73@gmail.com. Send cdu server screenshot for identify your problem.

Didn’t work for me

Can I have my £8 back please

Response from developer

Contact me via e-mail (ihopi73@gmail.com). I will guide you how to connect and use it.

Great App!!

First I doupted to try this app, because nobody wrote an assessment about it and rate was only average. But in the end I was curious and bought it.

Tried this App with My PMDG 777 and Prepar3d V4.5 and everything Works Fine. I Do Not unterstand the Bad Rate of this App.

I Really like, that i can open my Browser with simbrief now and Write the flightplan/fuel/weight/ etc. with My iPhone and i do Not have to Switch via ALT + TAB between simbrief and prepar3d anymore. Furthermore, it Feels a Bit more Realistic to program the FMC via this app.

Installation is very easy - you will need an additional Server Tool on your PC, but you can Download it in the given link in the Description of this App. You do Not Need to install this Tool on your pc - just run the exe, Give the path of your sim. Than run your Simulator and as soon as the flight is loaded you can use your mobile phone as cdu, as Long as you are Not in a cold and dark Cockpit.

Thank you - Great work :)

Could be good

After the issues I was having with this app caused me to write e negative review, I take it all back, the app works perfectly and the author is just brilliant, you have a problem and he will get back to you within a couple of days, do not buy the other expensive FMC apps on here as this one is perfect 👌

Response from developer

Thank you for your comments. I will keep update this app.

sxstrace.com error

Bought an app and installed no problem with my IPAD. I had to download a program to sync my laptop with the IPAD but I am unable to install it to my laptop, saying something about sxstrace.com error message. My laptop’s OS is Windows 7.

Response from developer

It's called side by side error. You must install Microsoft Visual studio 2015 redistributable package. You can download it from https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=48145 Contact via e-mail (ihopi73@gmail.com) for more information
