## aprs.fi Reviews in United Kingdom

### ***** "Quick question?"
Just wondered why this sends my call out ie ABC1-i  with a distance of 3514 miles… when I never asked it to??
-- Tomcatuk, 2024-11-26

### *---- "Terrible"
You pay £6.99 just to find out that you have to subscribe to get anything useful out of it. Stick to the website, it has many more features.
-- M7HGM, 2023-08-21

### ***** "Great app for aprs"
I’ve used this app for some time. It has matured nicely and is the best aprs app by a mile. If you also use the aprs.fi website it’s a great way to support the developer.
-- Steve m0, 2021-12-31

### ****- "Edit: no longer supports iOS 10"
Original below.
I was delighted when the TNC modem was introduced but having paid for the additional functionality last year, the app no longer works on my old iPhone 5 (iOS 10) which I had dedicated for APRS for RAYNET. So now my main phone has to be tied up as a TNC.
A retrograde step IMHO.

{I have been using Aprs.fi for several years now and found the app to have worked faultlessly on iPhone 5 and 6 for beaconing during RAYNET operations and more recently for personal use whilst out cycling the tracks and greenways during lockdown. Having the map running on the iPad at home gives my wife the reassurance of knowing where I am, just in case.....}

### ***** "Works well"
Great app.  Works well whether using to see APRS from own radio, or looking for other ham output or checking internet weather stations.  Many thanks!
-- davey-wavey, 2019-09-07

### ***** "gm7urd"
Have been using this app for a few years now and as i have several aprs apps on the phone i can say that this is always the first if not only one i open. others perform different functions. this app lets you see historical snapshot of the last few hours which i think is a lot better that the others that when you open them just let you see the current incoming aprs positions. for example if i go out into countryside and have no phone or wifi signal and i want to know retrospectively if my rf beacons have been received then this is the only app that enable this. beaconing from the app itself is very simple and unlike the other aprs apps doesnt crash the phone or make it laggey. very smooth to operating and very good menu features also.
-- Dave888168, 2019-02-27

### ****- "Great app, just one option missing"
Great app, much easier than trying to use the aprs.fi site on mobile, however please can you add an option to switch off the blue “my position” icon? Often this obscures my last packet (say if I have just pulled up) and makes clicking on it impossible. Thanks!
-- KevAmiga, 2018-07-31

### ****- "Great app"
One of the fastest loading apps well worth the money.
-- Smiler561, 2017-12-18

### ***** "MM6LNB"
Excellent app on the iPhone.
-- Border bull, 2017-09-23

### ***** "Review"
Brilliant app highly recommend it and does everything it says.
-- M3XJK, 2016-08-30

### ****- "Great"
I respectfully disagree with G1CVR. This is a great app and does what I need it to do. IE I can beacon without trouble and can view a map of who else is about.  
The one issue for me is having the 'Beacon Now' link so close to the 'Delete Account' link. That is just asking for trouble. Change that and it is a five star app from me. 
Much nicer than the overpriced APRSpro

73 de G7BHE.
-- DaFilth, 2016-08-05

### *---- "Aprs"
It's rubbish it does nothing 5 pound waisted,don't bye it save your money
-- G1cvr, 2016-07-01

### ****- "Very Good Ap"
Better than the iPhone version, but not as good as the web site. I still use it regularly though!
-- DX394, 2016-05-07
