Ratings and reviews

After numerous issues with the computer version, and the apparent absence of updates. I installed this on three of my devices. While I haven't used it much yet, it seems to work fine. I can only connect via proxy however It won't connect via direct or relay, at least not on my network. I have used Echolink pretty much since it was first released, on my computer, I don't if a revised Windows 10 version is coming in the future or not. We shall see what happens going forward.

Awesome app... I'm a ham in the US and have made contact to hams in Southern Ireland, New Zealand, England and several States in the US. My only gripe is that I wish it worked when my phone (Note 8) is on my mobile network. currently it only works when it's connected to WiFi. Other than that, no complaints! Also, I have run it on my Acer Chromebook with no issues... Keep up the good work!

It does allow access to member repeaters via the internet. The biggest issue is the application does not respect the volume setting. Every time it picks up from mute the volume is reset to full ignoring local volume settings. I have to keep adjusting the volume. Its been like that for months without being resolved. 2 Stars off. The other issue is poor choice of CODEC resulting is degraded audio quality. 1star off.
