### 1/5 — Why does it ask for Bluetooth?

*2026-05-15, version 26.05.13*

Not happening!

### 4/5 — DMR Info

*2026-05-09, version 26.05.02*

DMR information is nonexistent.  Color code is provided but that’s it.  Back to using their website.  Please add that information.

### 1/5 — Why does it ask for Bluetooth?

*2026-02-02, version 26.02.01*

Not happening!

### 2/5 — Information not correct

*2026-01-18*

I’ve installed the Android version and it’s OK, but the iOS version is still wrong. VA2XGA is not 448.100 but 448.075 MHz (cc1), even after several months.

### 3/5 — Information not correct

*2025-12-20, version 25.11.29*

I’ve installed the Android version and it’s OK, but the iOS version is still wrong. VA2XGA is not 448.100 but 448.075 MHz (cc1)

### 2/5 — Location Missing Edit

*2025-10-04, version 25.09.29*

I could give this more stars but I’m not able to edit my location. I’m at the mercy of my provider which has me located hundred+ miles away. We need to be able to enter our own grid coordinates.

### 5/5 — C4FM

*2025-08-16*

Eine sehr gute und hilfreiche App. Es wäre schön wenn noch C4FM Relais gelistet wären.

### 4/5 — Handy

*2025-06-14, version 25.06.04*

Handy tool, just text of the freqs, has location services to find close by repeaters etc.

### 1/5 — Confusing

*2025-02-16, version 25.01.28*

This app doesn’t have the same names for repeaters as MyGmrs app.

### 4/5 — Great App

*2025-01-29, version 25.01.28*

Awesome app. However, when I try to log into the repeaterbook.com website, I have a problem logging into that. Not only that, there is really no help files on the site that will help me get logged in so I can use my laptop occasionally.
