APRS is the Automatic Packet Reporting System used by Amateur Radio operators across the world. APRS Mobile brings the world of APRS to your phone or tablet via APRS-IS (internet) servers with its built in map engine, Internet connection and GPS. APRS Mobile gives you access to beacon your position and view other Amateur Radio operators anywhere in the world.

Non-amateur radio operators may view Amateur Radio APRS activity and amateur weather station data around the world.

Features

- iOS8 Support

App requires location services enabled when choosing to share your position with other Amateur Radio operators on APRS-IS with SmartBeacon turned on or to keep map centered on current position.

Posted positions can also be viewed at other APRS websites such as openaprs.net, aprs.fi, findu.com and APRSWorld.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Connecting to APRS-IS while using cellular data may cause overages, we are not responsible for data overages.
