Doesn’t work on new devices

Worked great for years, now the app isn’t supported on newer devices and most recent iOS updates. Fix now please

2026 and still malfunctioning?!

What company sells hardware that *requires* software to function, yet their own app is utterly useless due to it crashing immediately upon connecting to the hardware’s WiFi? The moment I connect to my brand new XR18 the app immediately shuts down. I can’t even get to the “home” screen unless I disconnect from the board. App devs have apparently abandoned X Air… a shame because the hardware is so good!
