### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work at All

*2025-04-19*

I gave this ZERO stars because a second after it opens, it shuts itself down.  The developers site is zero help.  Complete Garbage.  Glad it was free!

### 4/5 — A few minor comments

*2025-03-27*

I recently got my ham license and this app is basic but does exactly what it says without ads. I’d like to see a dark mode option. I could also see the current color gradient making it a bit difficult to read in sunlight. It also seems like the screens could easily be ported to a watch app. Having custom complications for watch would be better but even just a standalone watch app would be useful.

### 4/5 — Good for ham radio

*2025-03-25*

App is great, I use it all the time. Although ads are getting out of control.  Maybe create an option to remove ads for a couple dollars?

### 4/5 — Good app

*2024-06-28*

Would it be possible if you could put MUF feature in future versions? This would help a lot in determining what band to use to have a good QSO. Thanks

### 1/5 — Not accurate for VHF

*2023-09-04*

Not at all accurate for vhf. When the band is wide open this app always without fail says it’s closed.

### 4/5 — Apple Watch Complication

*2022-11-27*

This would be a strong Apple Watch Complication, however just downloaded the app and it is very basic. Expected a bit more explanation on solar information and more depth for Ham Operators, since all this can be found on websites with more info already, it appears to be a student design. Cannot speak to reliability yet as I just downloaded.

### 4/5 — Useful

*2022-07-13*

A useful little app, straightforward and simple, does what it says. 
I’d be happy to pay a couple of quid to do away with the ads.

### 3/5 — Ad Free Version

*2021-12-08*

Is an ad free (paid) version ever being released ?

### 2/5 — Full screen ads

*2021-06-12, version 1.0*

Would rate this nice and simple application that is ad banner supported at 5 stars. Full screen video ads. Nope. Don’t do those. 2 stars.

### 5/5 — Very convenient

*2021-01-31*

This app is great, I have had no problems, makes it easy to see solar data so I can decide whether it would be worth it to go on HF bands
