I hope it becomes available in IOS. I’d really like this on my IPad.

Just downloaded it. Interesting app. Initially having trouble picking a receiver, but certainly the concept is Interesting. It could use a help file (or I haven't found it yet). I'm running it on the oversized Samsung S8 Plus tablet which makes the screen easy to use.
Scrolled above WWV on 10 Mc, very nice signal from Gander on 10051 kc with weather reports until 2130 utc.

Some of the foreign site radios are hit and miss hourly but have had no trouble with the North American sdrs. Fun app to say the least.

Really nice app - thanks for the heads up.
Is there a specific advantage to using this, instead of KiwiSDR app?
I don't know, I never tried the KiwiSDR app.

When you write "app store", I wonder if you are looking for an iOS version. For the tablet or phone, it is Android only.
HTH.

Correct. It's now gone from the Google Play store. Mine was last updated October 2022.
Did you check the Amazon App site? Samsung runs an app site, too?

Hmm. The Play Store link I posted still works for me.
I haven't tried a another link for the APK file -- Skywave Schedules (Android) -- that has to be sideloaded; the usual precautions apply. YMMV.

The link you posted brings up a web page that appears to show the app in the Play store. Following that link opens the app's page in Google Play on your device. That only works because you (we) actually have the app.
But if you open the Play Store directly and search for "Skywave Schedules"... you won't find it.

Interesting. I see what you are referring to. Something is strange indeed. But at least the APK works. Oh well.
