Reviews on FT8 Decoder for iOS

★★★★★ Finally!

I’ve been a long-time supporter of HotPaw’s ham apps—namely rtl_tcp SDR and MorseDecodr—and I was thrilled to find this FT8 modem on the App Store. I can’t wait to see how the app improves over time. One feature I’d *love* to see added is native Hermes Lite 2 SDR integration. This was included in the ft8d beta, and is currently included in rtl_tcp SDR. The HL2 is my primary station rig, and it’s a joy being able to operate it from an iOS device on my LAN. Keep up the great work, Ron! 73 de K9T

★★★☆☆ Digirig not supported

Sooooo, yes this program works, as in it decodes. FT8 audio, and makes ft8 noise out. So it is then up to you to get some cables and make it work with your radio. For what this costs I wish I could get my money back it was a gamble to see if it would work with a DigiRig, sadly it doesn’t. (Missed opportunity) oh well.
