User reviews

Excellent

An excellent app that just works as it should every single time. I have been using this app and previous versions for 5 years and never had any problems.

Coupled with the Z21 system I genuinely believe this is the best DCC control system on the market.

Needs Work

Useless for layout control as it crashes if you try and change the configuration of a control.

z21 app 5star

An excellent app for all controls on your dcc layout

A great controller!

This is by far the best system I have used. My jaw dropped every time I found more features to implement.

Very good

Very good system, the future for model railway control.

Some suggestions for future updates:
It would be great to be able to copy a locos 'function mapping' to other locos within the app. i.e. make a function template for all your locos. Most of my sound locos have the same functions mapped to the same keys, however in this app I have to laboriously configure each loco separately.

I can't find an explanation of what the 'traction settings' do, every time I try to create a train ( multi head) it says I have to configure the 'traction settings' for the loco.
