Overall I like this app it works well and it's very convenient for running my N scale layout. I do have a few issues the main one is when I'm running my ESU loksound decoders with three or more engines on the layout the Full Throttle feature for example or some features are not properly working as they should with multiple units in a contest any help on why this is happening would be great to hear.

Well done! In the past I thought I wanted nothing to do with a smart phone throttle. Too clumsy I thought. Too complicated. Shows you how wrong you can be. This app makes me put the PowerCab on the shelf. The best part of it is the ability to label all the function buttons as defined in JMRI. It has layers of sophistication.

Love this app... though the last update is buggy. Running on android Samsung tablet and phone. Will crash as soon as an engine is selected requiring a restart and then it's fine. Will occasionally drive two engines on one road number, requiring to release the engine and reacquire it. Random program crashes with immediate restart but causing potential loss of control of engines during restart. Please fix the new bugs! Program was bullet proof prior to this last update.
