Skywave Schedules app

[Mophead]

Anyone else ever try the SKYWAVE SCHEDULES app ?
I think as of now it's only ANDROID, no IOS.
Besides SW schedules it has a REALLY nice built in internet SDR radio and host radios all around the globe.

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.

Been using it for a month or 2. Pretty fun app

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.

I just found out about this app but I can't find it on the app store?

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

skywaves schedule app - Google Search

HTH.

Thanks for the reply. I used the link provided and still the same message - We're sorry, the requested URL was not found on this server. I use a Samsung A32 btw. It apparently is no longer available.

 

[eorange]

Correct. It's now gone from the Google Play store. Mine was last updated October 2022.

 

[Drake-r8]

I'm hoping to find an older version somewhere - none of the alternatives seem very appealing.

 

[krokus]

Did you check the Amazon App site? Samsung runs an app site, too?

 

[Drake-r8]

Nope. I will do that. Thanks again.

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.

 

[Drake-r8]

Thanks for that link - can't wait to try this app.

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.

Big Thank You to w2xq for routing me to this app. Got it downloaded and working!

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