Need help getting MagicLink Server to run

Bought MagicSDR FOR iOS. Have AirSpyHF Discovery. Have Raspberry Pi 4. Trying to install MagicLink server. Downloaded. Says need a Redhat Platform 5.14 which has been obsolete for more than a year. Tried to install. Looked like it did but when tried to install magiclink.flatpak it couldn’t find it. Spent $9.99 for MagivSDR! What do I do to get this server running. Also where is setting to set up address of the server in the app?

Started working as described.

Not sure why it didn’t work in the beginning… Thought it was a “rip off…. Changing my review to 5 stars. Works in the background. Use it every day for keeping up with the Nets. The book marks are great and fast for on the go reception and testing of your antennas. Highly recommend. Beats the cost of buying your own Shortwave radio. Plus the cost of an antenna. No other equipment needed. Exactly what I was looking for.

Does not run in background

App is working ok on rtl_tcp and spyserver network but is pretty much useless since it does not run in background. If you switch between the apps or do anything else on your phone the app disconnects from server. And no, it is not IOS limit since other SDR apps continue to stream in background just fine. So very limited usability.
