I took PoC to mean "Proof of Concept" because that's what this is. I love the idea and like you said, great job on the hardware. The software was clearly developed by hardware engineers or rookie developers. It should be an alpha version and I'm actually surprised this got App Store approval. If this company put experienced app developers (detail oriented) on the software side of this, it could be a solid product. Hey TIDRadio, hire some real app developers (I am one) and make the app as good as the hardware. Now, I have to run, gotta tune in Tokyo on my tiddy radio.
Hello Fitz, we are glad to see your affirmation of my product concept. We are still constantly improving our software and hardware to respond to more needs. We also look forward to hearing more suggestions and voices about our products. Attach great importance to your comments and will contact you by email. We hope to receive your reply! Wish you have a nice day!
one thing i havent seen talked about regarding this tool... i dont know if it exists but a really cool feature would be if the app could save the configuration information to the bluetooth device so matched data could be written to multiple radios.
Hi Friend, Thank you for your serious comments and videos. We have received your feedback. We will discuss to make better improvements to the software. Yes, we have been listening to every user's voice to make us better. Thank you again!
Hi TIDRADIO, It's been 4 months. Have you fixed any of these issues and issued a software update yet? Am on the verge of buying but would like to see some progress.
@@johnbauman4005 The odmaster team has made several optimizations, if there is any problem you can feedback to me, I will report it and continue to optimize it.
I really enjoy your videos. They are always helpful and informative. In this case I was thinking about buying this, but after your review I think I'll wait a bit!
Thanks Clyde! I hear you. I think they really will get it there soon, especially if they spend just a little bit more on getting the app fleshed out a bit!
This is a great little tool to keep in your car/rig for on the fly programming. My buddy and I have one, great for programming the 5r when you are in the middle of the woods and need to make a change w/o having to use the cumbersome on radio programming buttons. The app is def not intuitive. My guess is that this is a very small dev team, maybe even one developer. They need to prioritize and figure out what their MVP features really need to be and iterate slowly. Focus on the function 1st then worry about the social media aspect of it, if at all. Hope the PO is watching and reading the comments.
It is definitely a handy little piece for reprogramming. I hope they can get some traction with this and clean up that app because this thing has a lot of potential! Especially at $23 for the hardware and nothing for the app. That's not that much more than a programming cable these days!
To the update on my transmitter now will not connect to my Bluetooth phone no more try to reinstall it says this version is not compatible for my Android phone when it has been cannot re-download that app odmaster says it's not compatible with my device when it has been for a while cannot reconnect
My Android phone is an android S21 says it's not compatible with the software when it has been for several months will not recognize or connect or download reinstall app will not work is there another app
I do believe it will. However, it is an electronic that'd dependent on another electronic to function, so it might not be the best option when everthing else is dark.
This device is garbage...at least the Odmaster software is. It corrupts the CTCSS tones on my two BF-F8HP radios requiring full reset to restore function. The social aspects of the software make it super annoying. I recommend sticking with Chirp. Also, I was just blown off by both Tidradio and Odmaster's lousy support.
