aprs.fi for Android

The aprs.fi Android application offers immediate, real-time access to APRS position information, weather reports, and telemetry graphs, allowing users to zoom and browse stations globally without delay. It includes features like callsign and address search with history, multi-station tracking, and map filtering for elements such as weather stations and AIS targets. The app also supports KML and GeoJSON overlay files for enhanced map visualization.

Users can beacon their position directly to aprs.fi or connect wirelessly to a Bluetooth, BLE, WiFi, or USB-attached TNC for receiving and transmitting position beacons without an internet connection. The application runs on the robust and fast aprs.fi database, providing Dark Mode support for improved ergonomics in low-light conditions and high-resolution graphics for modern displays, including the full APRS symbol set.

While the core application is a one-time purchase, some advanced functionalities, such as APRS text messaging, a high-performance software DSP modem, and APRS-IS beaconing with up to 10 callsign profiles, require an additional "Extra Features" subscription. This subscription also unlocks RX iGate functionality and extended time ranges for map and graph views, expanding its utility for serious APRS operators.
