RepeaterBook offers a smartphone app for iOS and Android. You can download the app from:

• Apple App Store
• Google Play

The app is an “offline” app, which means it does not require a data connection to operate, once you have downloaded the app. It does require GPS to work fully.

The benefit of the offline architecture is the ability to locate repeaters near you without a data connection. In a true emergency or during backcountry travel, a data connection may not be available to you. The app will still function.

The app is updated about every two weeks with the database changes. Although the Repeaterbook.com web site is updated daily, the app doesn't immediately receive the updates. This is due to the offline architecture. So, if you see that a pending update is available for the app, you should download it immediately to receive all the latest repeater information updates.

First sorry for the delay in getting back to you. A lot of life got in the way! The 710 support was only in the old Beta version. I am planning to wrap the connection options (Bluetooth and USB) for the various radios into a single annual in-app subscription called RepeaterBook Connect ($12 a year). Hams will be able to use their existing radios, existing USB interfaces etc and it will enable me to have more time for RB development, perhaps even get radios for testing. This is not for general publication yet. No huge secret, just don't want to get distracted with too many questions until a few more things are worked out! What do you think?
