Meshtastic iOS iPhone and iPad App Beta Testing Available

I have just started testing the app and wanted to give some initial feedback. Really nice UI, clear layout and very easy to connect to bluetooth. Things work as you’d expect them to. This is promising indeed, I have been hoping for something like this, like @garth I’ve been carrying an extra Android phone around.

The only other comment I have is that its a shame that there are no Topo maps on Apple Maps and that their existing maps are quite inaccurate for backcountry use (smaller lakes, rivers are missing etc.). Being able to switch to satellite view would help, but I’m not sure this will work for offline use the way it currently stores the map tiles on the Android app version. I know OsmAnd Maps has been mentioned as an alternative earlier, but can’t really comment on that other than it has the maps and it is possible to input POIs, tracks etc.

Great effort and I hope you continue, this is looking really great! Thank you!
