## Description

APRSSwift brings the Automatic Packet Reporting System (APRS) to your Apple devices — a native, universal amateur-radio app for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch.

Report your position to the APRS network, watch nearby stations move on a live map, read a real-time packet log, and exchange APRS text messages — all with your own callsign.

FEATURES
• Live map with APRS symbols, station tracks, and your own location
• Connect via APRS-IS (Internet), a TCP KISS TNC, a Bluetooth TNC (Mobilinkd), or the built-in AFSK sound modem (1200 baud — no extra hardware)
• Full packet decoding: position, Mic-E, compressed, objects, items, status, weather, messages, and telemetry
• SmartBeaconing — adaptive beacon rate based on speed and turns
• Two-way APRS messaging with acknowledgements
• Station list with distance, favorites, and proximity alerts
• Maidenhead grid locator, metric or imperial units, and dead reckoning
• Post APRS objects, send status reports, and view weather & telemetry charts
• Apple Watch app: beacon, grid, and nearby stations on your wrist

APRSSwift is designed for licensed amateur radio operators. A valid callsign is required; your APRS-IS passcode is generated automatically from it.
