Can not use it.

Problem started couple of weeks ago when my iPad was updated to OS. 11.0 It works with my iPhone X. Don’t know what to do. I thought the problem was FlyQ until tonight reading all these comments. So, what are we suppose to do?

Does work with iOS 11

Doesn’t work with iOS 11 and it’s been useless fo so long, it appears the developer has no interest in keeping it up to date. I’ll never spend money on a product from this company again.
