SimplePi for Raspberry Pi

i can only use the app once before it won’t let me

I often run commands that run continuously and return frequent status updates via the terminal. I have been unable to view the command’s output. I find the terminal icon at the top but it does not show updates from my command. Should be able to hold finger on a command and create a copy. Without these features, I don’t see this as a big improvement over the old free version. Continuously running command aborts when phone screen locks/(sleeps). In need the command to keep running.

So I’ve typed in my IP and all the other info and it says invalid or couldn’t reach given IP address. I’ve checked multiple times, I don’t have a VPN or any sort of good protection turned on, and I’ve also checked my IP multiple times and it just doesn’t let me in. I can’t connect to my Rasberry Pi 3B+.🤬🤬

None of the monitoring works , and there’s no instructions if third party scripts need to be installed on the Pi to enable the monitoring to work. Plus I had to pay to discover this lack of functionality. My fault for stepping out of FOSS To add insult to injury there’s a ton of tracking hacked into this for the devs benefit. Greedy.

I used the app once, and it seemed decent. I came back a while later, and it’s requiring me to pay a subscription fee to do anything. If it were a flat amount, I might be willing to pay it. However, this new SaaS (Software as a Service) trend is absurd. I wouldn’t have even bothered to download the program if I’d noticed it was *strictly* a subscription-based app. This program isn’t a service. If the creator goes out of business and/or ceases to exist, there’s no reason that this program couldn’t keep functioning exactly as-is until whatever framework it’s written against is no longer supported by Apple. Don’t try to sell your program on a subscription model unless you have regular expenses involved in keeping a non-updated program functional. Don’t do it unless you’re actually offering a service.

In the app it shows that there’s a one week free trial. I’ve used it less than an hour and all I get is the pop up saying to subscribe whenever I try to connect.

Doesn’t stay connected screens close and pop around

This app Easy and useful. It took me seconds to connect my Raspberry Pi. I found it good that the developer responds to reviews. I got a bit concerned about privacy after I read a review. I am taking a deep look to the privacy policy. Anyway, I do not keep sensitive information innmy Raspberry Pi, so I should be good.

I don’t usually leave reviews but this app has made my life a lot easier, it’s a must have for any pi home server owners, its 5$ per year but honestly it’s worth it to support the developer ,beats having ads

Requires a subscription to work as you cannot close out of the subscription page. Does not say this anywhere on the store page
