User Reviews

Reviewers praise the app as a comprehensive, handy reference, but warn that it is outdated and not functioning on current iOS versions. They note broken upgrade flows and content gaps (missing QN codes and license-test calculations). Overall, its value is offset by maintenance and reliability concerns.
Pros
  • Comprehensive, wide-ranging information across ham radio topics.
  • Handy on-the-go reference that's easy to use on iPhone/iPad.
  • Well organized and easy to navigate.
  • Essential tool for band privileges and band plans; frequently used by users.
  • Helpful for learning and refreshing knowledge, including license-study support.
Cons
  • Outdated and unmaintained; last updates years ago, with band plans not updated and compatibility issues with current iOS.
  • App appears non-functional on latest devices; evidence it’s not live and upgrade prompts/links don’t work.
  • Content gaps: missing critical reference data (e.g., QN codes) and lacking license-test calculations; content not up-to-date.
Recent reviews
Seems like this app was last updated in 2018. The Band plans are not updated. I want my money back.

It’s great. My only small complaint is QN codes (for use in traffic nets) are not listed.
