Great communication app linking to my Vero VR-7500

Love this app I wish it could be programmed from a computer and worked with Zello but the Global Walkie Talkie works much the same. It took a while to figure out to use the Global Walkie Talkie you just need the HT app on both phones. Setting up a network and linking to a repeater is pretty easy and works great.

Could be better. Love the capabilities of the radio but the app could use a some work. There's a newer version that's not on this store that fixes some bugs but also introduces others. One issue I had with this version was not being able to silence incoming APRS. There's a slider to do so but it won't stick. That sort of explains the overall QC on the app. Could be great but needs some fixes.

The hardware is amazing and the functionality does all seem to be there, however the app is quite terrible. It appears there was no UI design, just features be wedged in to the standard android app template in seemingly random places. As an example, why is scan mode buried under device settings? That makes no sense. The scan button on the frequency/channel screen does not appear to do anything... no scanning frequencies or channels? Is it scanning for CTS/DCS There is a switch for "Talk Around" another element that seems to have no purpose. By far the least intuitive UI I have ever used. It makes me want to abandon this device. Please improve it, or at least publish the APIs and protocols so someone else can make a better app. This device will never get used to its full potential without an intuitive UI. With a good UI, it could be a game changer, the hardware is great, the features in the app are game changers, but the execution is just terrible. Also the marketing material led me to believe it would work with android auto. It does not. Only give it two stars because I like the device so much.

Not for US market usage - The Chinese social network QQ appears to be integrated with this app and gates some functions behind logging in. As such, I consider it easily capable of being spyware. Call sign verification also goes to a purely Chinese website and does not appear to be regulated in any way. Don't use this, and don't buy the radio it's meant to be used with. Wait for BTech to come out with a rebranded version like the GMRS-Pro but for full 400-470 MHz support
