Great and fantastic support

I deliberately changed my radio to a IC-7610 for this app. Expensive yes but at 73 what the heck. I’ve had some self inflicted issues and Marcus has been fantastic in helping me sort. This app works superb and fully recommend. 10/10 and would buy again. Have the iPad version and will probably buy the Mac version next.

A grey addition for the Icom 705 etc

Use this a lot especially for the FT8 functionality and is brilliant. Remote operation is a breeze too. Highly recommended.

Great app but with red flags

This is amazing software that I have used for many years. I recently noticed the inclusion of an obviously AI-generated icon inside the app (the WSPR icon), which is disappointing because it leads me to believe that at least a portion of the codebase may be vibe coded. Additionally, AI-generated icons look cheap (and this is an expensive application). As a software developer myself (professional - 10 years), this is important because vibe coding can lead to issues such as unmaintainable and/or unreliable software. This app has served me well up until now and I hope it continues to do so.

Excellent, needs one addition!

An excellent piece of software. Easy to use and very well designed. Lots of YouTube videos to assist with this application.
Needs one more thing to make it a premium experience; JS8CALL really does need to be added! Please, please do try to get this done!

doesn’t support ft8 contesting

The app itself works real well. There is a slight learning curve to get it working but the manual is very helpful to get through that.
It’s very cool to be on one’s couch and make ft8 contacts. though my biggest gripe is that ft8 doesn’t support the extra characters for contesting or field day. Even if you’re not part of the contest you can’t respond to those that have the extra characters. The app author is pretty adamant about not supporting this. To me that alone makes the app useless and not worth buying. I wish i realized that before I bought the app.
