GPS 2 IP

Just hooked up to open CPN on an old MacBook with 32bit Linux distro. Works like a charm for a backup chart plotter. Thanks for creating such a simple but useful tool.

I am currently in my final year of an engineering degree at MIT in New Zealand and am part of a team working on a Search and Rescue Robot. Until we came across this app the team and I were getting more and more frustrated as we tried to implement a poorly supported Microchip GPS module onto the robot. Essentially this app has revived the project and the ability to push the GPS co-ordinates wirelessly to our PC and then extrapolate the data and show live real time tracking on Google Maps applications is fantastic. Highly recommend this app and keep up the good work Capsicum Dreams team :) Cheers PK

When using TAIP, I am getting an error. There is not mention in the documentation about this error and the developer has not returned my email.

Simple interface and broadcasts gps/heading data reliably. Tried the free version first to prototype, then committed to the full version. Setup - iPhone 11 with iOS 15.7.1 and hotspot wifi - Dell XPS Laptop - Python 3.8 (socket, pynmseagps) Docs on their website are useful! Only downside is the tutorial links are broken.

I am using Rose Point Coastal Explorer v4 on my boat to augment a Garmin Nav system. I can pull GPS data from the Garmin system, but I wanted to have a backup source. Along came GPS 2 IP, where I can use my iPhone as that GPS source. I’m running Win 10 on a parallels VM on my Mac, and I installed HW VSP3 to create a virtual port on that OS. Once the port is created, it appears on CE4 as a new NMEA 0183 serial device. Just click it, and the connection is made. Not just a great product though. I tried to share the app, with my full-version purchase, on my wife’s iPhone. The app shared, but it stayed in the demo mode. I wrote to Angus, and he is working this issue for me. Angus replied quickly, and he was able to explain why this happened. A fix is in work, and I am very happy with all of these results.

The trial version only gave about two seconds to test the app before showing the disabled message. Nowhere near enough time to see if it works in my application. Oh well, I’ll look elsewhere.

I frequently recommend this app for INavX users who have INavX on a Wi-Fi only iPad. It works great in my experience.

I don’t mind paying for an App as soon as it works. Move on don’t spend your time and/or money, the developers have its website set up to not accept messages. :(

Many times tried to connect from IPhone to Ipad but can not recognize the port. Is that really working?

Does not work, no documentation, emails go unanswered, support website blows up on smtp errors.
