Had it for years, but no longer works
I’ve had this train and this app since 2017. It worked fine the first two years. It no longer connects to my train and there are no functions in the app available. Nothing to connect the train back to it. Needs a total overhaul.
United StatesPlease update the app to work with ios17 and newer iPhone 15 max pro
Voice recording and playback Doesn’t work on iOS 17.x on iPhone 15 pro max. Works on older phone with same iOS version… go figure.
United StatesVoice Streaming & Recording doesn't work
Just got the new Union Pacific Dash 8. Voice streaming and recording work fine from Android phone but this app does not work on iPadOS 17.03. Uninstalled and reinstalled, gave all rights possible and still nothing.

Works ok, my legacy engine has a tendency to decide to go full power when a track defect happen from a derailment from other engine. The reset causes a disconnect but unless you are super quick engines come back doing more than they should. The should reset back to zero at power loss. Or better idea is use something better than Bluetooth!
