Hi,
I'm currently working on an app for iOS which allows you to view the cockpit instruments on your iPhone/iPad. There is still a lot of work left but I give you here a little preview to get your opinion.


Here are some screenshots





If necessary, I'll port it also to Android.

cheers,
Tex wink

An Android port would be appreciated (by me at least). Interesting tool, will be neat to see it in action.

Nice!

I like it just the way it is- very nice and clean layout smile

I don't have a tablet, but this could be an app that pushes me just that much closer to a rash decision wink

P.S. maybe consider adding a digital clock as an option.

I was also hesitating before getting an iPad and working on this app pushed me to get one wink It's a very nice device.

Looking good, are you going to have a German based gauges version (assuming that I would be selectable in th settings), this looks like a draft modern day gauge screenshot?

In the 1st version I'll have generic gauges for British, German (maybe US and Japanese) planes. In the future I will be adding via upadates gauges for each plane types (Spit, F4U, BF 109, ...)

Also good to see you using direct IP connection and not bonjour services.

What about CLOD?

Currently, CLOD does not offer any API meaning that there there is no way for a 3rd party to communicate with CLOD. I'm of course waiting that the guys from il2 release such an SDK to adapt my app for it. It should be possible in the future:
