### 2/5 — No C64Ultimate Support

*2025-12-29*

While I understand that the C64 Ultimate is technically a new product that shipped in December 2025, it’s pretty much just an Ultimate64 board from Gideon in a fancy case, with the 3.14 firmware.

It’s outright not detected, no matter how the app is configured, automatically or manually. As far as I’m aware, none of the remote control or streaming features have changed for this board and it ships with both enabled.

It’s a cool idea but unfortunately a bust.

### 5/5 — Works again!

*2025-10-20*

Thank you for the upkeep!

### 1/5 — Completely broken

*2025-03-01*

If you need to display a blank white screen and nothing else, this is the app you’ve been looking for.

### 2/5 — Does not work

*2025-01-23, version 1.3*

The idea of this app is wonderful.
But the App only shows a white screen. On IPad also.

Please fix it.

Thanks!

### 5/5 — Sieht optisch schon mal sehr gut aus

*2025-01-20, version 1.3*

Derzeit warte ich noch auf meinen Ultimate64, aber die Oberfläche dieser App sieht schon mal sehr vielversprechend aus. Danke für die Mühe. (iPadPro M1 iOs 18.2.1)

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2024-11-11, version 1.3*

Mit aktuellem iOS 18.1 und iPhone 14 Pro bleibt der Bildschirm nach dem Start weiss. Mehr passiert nicht - daher nutzlos
