Johnathan-346380 Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 I'm currently using my iPhone, but am looking at getting an iPad for the sole purpose of using with my layout. Is there any difference is display, apart from being larger i.e. I'm using 2 x HM6010's, on the iPhone I have to scroll between the two screens or are they displayed on the same screen on the iPad as there is more space. The Mallard has 3 x pages of function controls which you have to scroll between are these all on the same page on the iPad? I'm just wondering if the iPad has more functionality?

SteveM6 Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Same display regardless of device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brew Man Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Yes, I'm on a Lenovo M10 with a 10.6" display and I have to scroll across 3 pages of functions. I don't use 6010s so can't comment on those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritInVanCA Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 I use two HM6010s on an iPad and I have to scroll left/right between the two of them at the top of the screen. I’m looking forward to being able name the points rather than use numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristian-353752 Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Whilst there is no more functionality on the iPad, I do find it easier to control than on the iPhone. This is mostly due to having fat fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is mostly due to having fat fingers. I'll second that. I had the Android version on a Samsung S22 but now use a Lenovo M11 tablet. Significantly cheaper than an iPad - mine was just under £200 from Argos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinB Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 (edited) Perhaps you could ask for as a further enhancement, is do what the Z21 app does. When the pad is in landscape mode expand the screen to have two locos side by side. As I say just an idea, obviously for the very long term.

It is the intention when consisting is made available in the app to have both loco control panels side by side so individual function control can be handled more easily.

Yes, but that is slightly different to what I am suggesting. Having two loco control panels side by side only really works if you have enough screen space so it limits it to a pad with a suitable screen and my suggestion was for all modes not just a consist. Of course if that is the intention then ignore this comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin it follows on that if it can be done for a consist then the code is going to be there for a user option to present any loco pair (or maybe more) across a page. A mobile may have to be swung landscape for it to be useful. We shall see if and when they sort the consisting bit out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
