All Altus Metrum software is open source and will remain free of charge. Unfortunately, there are both legal and technical reasons that our code just can't be used on devices based on Apple's iOS. Those of you that have hung out with us at launches when this topic came up know just how frustrating this has been to Keith and me since we first started Altus Metrum. We are immensely fortunate that our friends at Iron Sheep, an iOS applications development shop, got excited enough about the new Bluetooth LE support in TeleBT version 4 that they've written a new application for iOS that works with Altus Metrum products completely from scratch! We're really pleased that there's iOS support for our products now, and that you have the choice of using your iPhone or iPad if you want... even if the independently developed app is something you have to pay a modest fee for. Our understanding is that it's a one-time, once per family, fee for the app. That seems completely reasonable to us given the large number of hours we know went into developing the app and getting it approved for inclusion in the Apple app store! > Does it work with TeleGPS? Yep! Works fine. And, in fact, we've been talking with Iron Sheep about how to better support TeleGPS in both the new iOS app and AltosDroid in the future. Bdale
