Can't import data from localhost

I am using a hackrf with Android so I am trying to import the ADS-B data via dump1090_sdrplus git repo. With its own web interface I can see the planes and data but when using this app, it connects but just never shows anything. I can't believe anyone would pay for this. Thank F you get a free trial first.

Should have made the app paid instead of a nasty surprise.

More transparency is needed, cost is not mentioned in the whole page.

Misleading

I understand and have NO problem with having a free app with in-app purchases. Most people understand it is a "lite" or limited version; while the full version has a cost. However, this app will not even launch without purchasing it. Even the 7 day trial requires setting-up the purchase. Many of us want to use an app like this 1-2x per year. So I'm certainly not going to buy it. But if the "lite" free version actually did anything... then I'd save it and at least be open to future purchase. It's simply business guys... you have to earn customer loyalty... not just expect someone to buy it. You have to entice us somehow... WITHOUT getting our payment info if we change our mind.

Works great with Linux receiver

It's great to have a native app for displaying ADS-B on the Android! Just had to edit the dump1090 config file on my Linux receiver to enable the BEAST output port. I do wish the CPU usage was lower though.

Easy SImple

Man oh man have I been trying to find a way to use my SDR dongle to capture ADS-B and display it on a map. Apparently this was easy until 2016 when Google no longer allowed access to their maps via an interface unless you had , and paid for, an API. Of course I didn't find this out until AFTER I got my SDR. I have been tring for weeks to find a work around. I cam accross this today. It is so easy to use! Easy online instructions too. Can't wait for future updates and features! Good job on this!!!
