### 2/5 — Can’t close the apps on IPhone IOS 26.5

*2026-06-29*

The apps is the mirror of the screen and you can’t do anything other than seeing the picture of the screen.
The actual problem is that you can’t close the app even after closing the screen on my iPhone. The only way I found is rebooting the IPhone.
Need an update to be functional.

### 1/5 — Utter rubbish

*2024-11-24*

doesn’t do anything. No connection to the MFD whatsoever. Utter disappointment

### 5/5 — Works perfect

*2024-07-15, version 1.5.1*

No issues at all, displays the screen of my Axiom MFD, no configuration needed beside connecting to the MFD WiFi. Spares me trips to the helm, perfect. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Warum veröffentlicht man so eine App?

*2023-07-13*

Ich kann nur mit dem Kopf schütteln… was für ein Schrott. Wie kann man so etwas als „namhafte“ Firma in den App Store stellen? Null Sterne…

### 1/5 — Is this still supported?

*2023-03-15, version 1.5.1*

No updates in 5 years.  But why still available. It works just as poorly as the other Raymarine app

### 1/5 — It is a shame.. not working.. please fix this app

*2022-04-15, version 1.5.1*

It is a shame.. not working.. please fix this app. 1.  It disconnects most of the time. 2. When it connects there is no way ti close this app to use our phone. We have to reboot the phone to close this app.

### 2/5 — Poor

*2020-05-13*

Just never seems to work. Trouble connecting. Not worth the download.

### 1/5 — Does not support iOS X

*2019-09-16, version 1.5.1*

Goes into full screen mode and does not allow user to close or change app. Swipe Bar at bottom is hidden. 
Workaround: Use SIRI

### 5/5 — Multi display

*2017-04-22, version 1.4*

Will this app allow me to see a different screen that what my axiom is currently displaying?

### 1/5 — Doesn't connect, doesn't work

*2016-05-21, version 1.4*

Rayview doesn't work. Period. Won't connect. Rayremote works fine.
