User Reviews

Users praise ircDDB remote for its ease of setup and use, enabling quick management of D-STAR reflectors and integration with devices like Raspberry Pi. It improves control over reflector linking and is valued by both new and experienced users. However, the app needs updates for the latest Android versions, refreshes to the reflector database, and fixes for connection and stability issues including persistent background running and incorrect status indications.

Pros

Easy to use and setup, allowing quick linking and unlinking of D-STAR reflectors.
Allows manual entry and saving of favorite reflectors for instant changes without waiting.
Works well with devices like Raspberry Pi and services like Pi-Star, enhancing D-STAR control.
Helps users manage reflectors more effectively compared to RF methods.
Provides a legal and convenient way for trustees to manage connections.

Cons

App does not currently support the latest Android versions (Android 13), needing updates for compatibility.
Reflector list is outdated, only going up to REF071, requiring newer reflector updates.
Issues with server connection such as invalid password errors despite correct credentials.
App sometimes gives false positives about reflector status (e.g., showing offline reflectors as linked).
App stays running in the background and is difficult to quit, sometimes causing crashes on some devices.
