iTrip™ Controller for Pc

Was hoping that the endless spinning wheel when scanning for stations would be fixed with this release but it's not. Although at least it looks like the Privacy->Location Services settings (iOS 8.4) do finally hold once you grant the app access while using the app (unlike prior version of the app). Sadly though even with the app having access to Location Services it hasn't been able to resolve the best stations here in southeastern Maine (and there should be PLENTY of dead air space for it to find some).

I used to use the this app physically but now you need an App? And they both don't work. Maybe my product is old but it should work with or without an app

50% of the time I plug my iphone3gs into the griffin product, and turn on the app, all I see is a picture of an iPhone disconnected from the product? Huh? 45% of the time the newly purchased griffin product days my iPhone is "not compatible with this device." so 95% of the time I have to perform magic tricks for this junk to work. And by work I mean "do nothing." there's a scanner on the griffin product, I dont a dead weight app memory hogging app. Why is there an app? The 5% of the time it works occurs when I dont open the app. Not everything requires an app, an app doesn't by default make a product cool, and a useless app that's only relatable quality is that it causes you to fumble with the device while driving; forget texting while driving, try using griffin equipment while driving and feeling like you are Toonces the cat-LOOK OUT FOR THE CLIFF! This app gives the Griffin company the aura of out of touch, technologically unsure-throw-what-sticks company. The app is about as necessary as a 5 inch floppy disk, only more useless. Yank the app or give it some purpose or don't make it a requirement. I'll be returning your product shortly. and remember, apple never promises forward compatibility with products it doesn't produce itself. Buy the product this app is used for if you are into premature obsolescence, and figurative holes in your pockets.

this device as with all fm transmitters produce a weak signal meant to be contained within close proximity to your stereo as indicated by the FCC. Some stations produce much stronger signals that overpower your transmitter and depending on the type and quality of your stereo am its antenna plus the area you are in, you will find the device works better in some places more than others. Example, I am a trucker and use my device daily, when I'm in the NYC area, it doesn't work so well, mostly because of the powerful radio station transmissions in the city, when I drive up north where there aren't as many or nearly as powerful radio stations as in the city so I just have to set it and forget it and get crystal clear sound. This applies not only to my truck, but also to my personal car and other cars I've driven through the 3 years I've owned the griffin this app. Bottom line, depending where you are, how much radio traffic exists in your area and the quality of your radio, its a 50/50 chance you'll either love or hate the device.
