SkyPortal has been released for Android. Has anyone tried the Android version of SkyPortal with SkyQ Link and will it control the scope?

The wireless works with the program on the iPAD, but the scope still does not align right. It uses the GPS off the iPAD, but the scope is always off by 90 degrees. Same symptoms as the last version of software.

I also just down loaded SkyPortal. I have an IPAD, but I will test it to see they work together.

I used it on my Android/Samsung phone and an iPad mini without any problems. When you setup the app it asks for username/email (don't remember if email is the username) and obviously you use the same one. I ended up using the iPad because there are some good visualizations however say you pop in at the range and record some swings with your phone, these get pushed to the cloud and you can them view them on the iPad later.

We have a new release coming out for the app in early June. When it is released it will work with the Android smartphones, yours included!

Not on Parrots own android app at this time. The current version is AR.FreeFlight 2.3.3. The new version (AR Freeflight 2.4)which parrot said would be available in October hasn't been released as of today. When it is released you will be able to fully utilize the Flight Recorder's GPS and all other functions. There are other apps on Google Play which already are capable of using the flight recorder, but they are pay apps. Hope this helps

The new version of this device has a "RealTime" option that is supposed to give a readout of current altitude. This wasn't an option on the older versions. I've only used mine for model rockets, so I don't know how well the RealTime setting works, but the functionality should be there. FWIW, I really like this little device.

If you have configured your Venstar Skyport account correctly and you are able to control the thermostat using your Venstar smartphone app when you are at home, then you should be able to do so from anywhere that your smartphone has access to WiFi. Obviously, your Internet connection at home will need to be working when you are away from home.

There is an Android app now for controlling the WeMo, it is just a Beta version and does not do everything it should until the final version comes out in the summer, but it should work to some degree at least.

Skyscout is supposed to identify objects in the sky. Mine was pretty useless, working only on rare occasions. I gave up on mine long ago.

Droidmote or RKremote on the google play store will work for control with an android phone or tablet. I don't know about control from a PC... good luck.

I have not tried Android, but it works fine with iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. When searching for the app in the app store type "I SmartView". You need to put a the space after the "I" or you won't find it. Strange.

quite simple, the free ones depend on individuals to update and that can be a mixed bag for reliability. Skycaddie allows users to map and update but they also send out specialists to walk the entire courses and the greens are to within an inch in error margins. Phone based GPS apps for golf are ok but they destroy the battery life on the phone. I have used several apps on different platforms and have never been able to complete a round with any battery life left except with my old blackberry using bbgpsgolf. The flaw with that app is it was user updated only. The upside is it was user updated only so all the courses and the app were free. quite simple, the free ones depend on individuals to update and that can be a mixed bag for reliability.

I agree with the other answers but would add one cool thing it does. Unlike you, the device is not actually "looking" at the sky. Rather, it is referencing an internal map using GPS coordinates. So you can have it locate planets or stars that are not even visible (behind a tree, below the horizon, etc.)

In my opinion support for Skype will happen more likely through the modded custom ROMs, like Vegan and Cyanogen 7 adaptions, not looking for much joy from Viewsonic support.BTW, I LOVE my gTab. So much that I just bought one for son for birthday. Didn't plan to spend that much, but loved it enough to want to see others enjoy it too. Plus, his a-hole boss bought an iPad for another employee and wanted son to brandish his superior tab for less than half the cost!

I've had success on my Samsung Stratosphere with Torque. I only use a subset of the features, and have not looked beyond the free apps.

Sorry, my android decided I was done. It works fine for manually controlling the unit and is an easy way to make sure the unit is working. I didn't use the scripting interface though. Once I got it working with the demo, I wrote my own software to control it. It's an easy interface to program for if you're familiar with using serial ports from software.

All of those devices work fairly well. I have golflogix on iphone myself. What skycaddie offers is the fact that a human has actually surveyed the course by foot and will pick up on some nuances that are missed from looking at satellite photos.

Have not tried it with Trackmaster on Android. It's more dependent upon the App though than the transponder, as the gps receiver works fine with both iPhones and Androids, as long as one remembers to switch the toggle switch to the corresponding format.
