Missing RX and TX in app on iOS version

I bought the GMRS-PRO after watching a review that was gushing over how cool it was that you could throw this radio in your backpack and ignore it because of the app and its ability to control the radio over Bluetooth. But the iOS version lacks the ability to transmit or receive audio through the app. I could pair a Bluetooth headset to the radio but then how would I use the PTT from something like a pair of AirPods? VOX? I haven’t found a VOX setting anywhere in the radio. Not that I would use VOX cause it’s an easy way to hog a channel and never hear what your buddy is trying to say to you.

Also, this radio has an incredible tone scanning ability (much better than the TD-H8, which makes sense given the price difference) which can only be activated from the radio. It’d be very nice to get that feature in the app.

Great radio, good app, poor manual

I’m an IT guy and know how most things get done. The app should be accompanied by a manual that is a step by step how to. I’ve had to fiddle with it to guess how to get things the way I want. For example, no where are you told how to get the radio to send a text message. The manual says you can, but not how. Also, no where are you told you must program a button to initiate a call tone. Also, Btech tech support emails will only refer you to a page in the manual that says something can be done, but not how to get it done, or whether a menu image is on the radio or the app.

Good not great

I love my new Btech pro radio. I love that it is fully programmable from the app. My only complaint is the app looks very first level. It needs a makeover. That’s my only thing I got. Other then that it’s pretty good. One thing I would add is the ability to change groups in the app when programming channels. It’s annoying I have to go to the radio to hit a preset button in order to switch groups in the app.

Update:
New update is crashing my iPhone

Thank you for the feedback, we will look into group toggling in a future update!
