Why is it when a phone and connect to multiple Bluetooth devices that this app can not connect to both the version 1 this app (which in my testing has better range) and the mesh. It is ridiculous that you need to unpair and repair which ever one you want to use at that moment. What if you have people that have both versions? Stupid marketing move to try and get people to buy mesh in order to make your coverage better. I know that someone around the table at that meeting said “Hey if we don’t allow both versions then people will be forced to upgrade and that equals more money for us and better coverage for users.” I think it is ridiculous that the pro versions are so expensive and treat like some military weapon system. It is impossible to get your hands one them. GPRS has much greater range. Don’t get me wrong I like the idea of the product and own both V1 and Mesh, bit come on try improving your product for general users with thing like multi radio support (or at least multi app so you can have them both running) and also bring an external antenna to the general versions. The whole it can hang out in your pocket thing is great but if you can’t reach more than half a mile on flat terrain then you clearly are missing the mark on functionality.

I don’t see much update activity going on anymore from this app. Not a great taste in my mouth after dropping hundreds of dollars on these units for the developer to suddenly disappear. I’m using 6 mesh units spread across a few friends houses across town as emergency backup communications. There are some app based upgrades that the developer could implement and people have asked for (desktop client is one) but it seems like they’re done upgrading this device. Not sure if I can recommend them to purchase. Really cool hardware and there are decent modding guides online for battery and antenna upgrades. Complaints about the app: My app is using over 7gb of phone space with no option to delete this mystery cache without reinstalling the app. Give me a delete/limit cache option please. “Send feedback” button in-app automatically crashes the app. Then it suggests sending info about the crash. I clicked yes and it immediately crashed again..

It’s incredible what can be done with technology. this app is an example of that. These would be much more useful if they had greater range about 4 times what it does now. I pull mine out when I hunt large dense refuges and such. But if someone in the group is more than 3/4 mile away it doesn’t reach them. I would like to see some downloadable satellite view maps and ability to save pins and such. Land in my area is pretty flat, so a topological map wouldn’t help much. Having satellite maps and pin saving, would save me from having to buy a $300 GPS and be much more convenient.

Have both gen1 and mesh. Both worked great from beginning and continue to improve features. Support is responsive and take feedback serious.
