Consistently Crashes and Firmware Update Problematic

SEHmob

The app crashes when I try to scroll down to the bottom of the Satellites page. I tried deleting and downloading the app twice to see if it was not downloaded properly. Nope! It still crashes. I also had problems updating the firmware from 1.2.0 to 1.3.0. It finally updated on the third try, but who knows if it actually worked. At least it says Firmware Version 1.3.0 on the Status page and not 1.2.0. I hope Dual Electronics Corp. Programmers are listening. Please fix!


App crashes on satellite view

stingsling

App constantly crashes when viewing satellite screen. Battery status shows 93% after overnight charge. Updated firmware to ver 1.3 with no improvement.


Crash city

WJKramer

Wow. Really needs to be more reliable for aviation. iPhone 6 plus iOS 8.1.


Major issues with crashing.

Jaqintosh

Crashed on me 5 times in less the 3 minutes. Basically unusable. May be an issue with iPhone 6+, but even if it is, that should have been discovered prior to submission. iOS 8.4. 64gb 6+


Unreliable, some functions don't work at all

MarkB_1

This app crashes frequently, sometimes randomly. I also found it crashes every single time I scroll to the bottom of the satellite list. The "share" option for trip data doesn't work at all. If I try to message or email the trip data, it just sends an empty message. AirDrop mysteriously fails, as well. If I select any of the third party apps from the list, like Google Drive, nothing happens at all. Given this app is such an integral part of the GPS unit, I have to recommend against buying the XGPS 160 until this app is improved.


App barely works but gps unit works w map apps

App works on iPad Air 2 but not the trip download page. App does not recognize the gps unit on iPhone 6 iOS 9.3.1. But....gps map programs on both iPhone and iPad recognize the gps location.


Unusable

App crashes consistently every time I launch it.


Massively Disappointing

Hawk wants his map.

I purchased the SkyPro Dual GPS160 Bluetooth module after much comparison to other similar devices. I must say I'm immediately disappointed with their app, as well as their GPS product. Bluetooth connectivity is very spotty and constantly requires reconnecting. I mainly picked this product over the Garmin equivalent because it advertised as offering an App that complies with it. It is nothing more than a battery life checking tool that takes 2-3 attempts to read because it crashes so often. I rarely write reviews because of how difficult it is on iOS to sign in and all that. But it was worth it for me to tell others how much of a piece of junk this is. I will definitely be returning the GPS I purchased due to the lack of effort on their side to produce a half decent product or app. Go elsewhere!


Update the App!

MikeW1967

This app crashes every time you scroll to the bottom of the sat page, it's completely useless and renders the 160 as a little red pill with pretty lights. Horrible!


Works Good when connected

Rpm360

This app works great when my xgps160 is connected via Bluetooth which lasts anywhere from 5 minutes to 1 hour then it drops the connection and or locks up. Needing a iPhone /IPad and Xgps160 full reset by shutting both off and restarting. Sometimes I need to tell the IOS device to forget the Bluetooth connection for it to pair with the device.. how the get this sorted out soon..
