The SSTV is now available for $2.99 for iPad owners. The application is supporting English language. It weighs in at only 10MB to download. It is highly advisable to have the latest app version installed so that you don`t miss out on the fresh new features and improvements. The current app version 1.2 has been released on 2014-11-28. The Apple Store includes a very useful feature that will check if your device and iOS version are both compatible with the app. Most iPhone and iPad are compatible. Here is the app`s compatibility information: Compatible with iPad. Requires iOS 3.2 or later
Bottom Line: For more information about SSTV check developer Black Cat Systems`s website : http://www.blackcatsystems.com/ipad/iPad_SSTV_Pad.html


SSTV Pad lets you decode and display Ham (Amateur) Radio SSTV (Slow Scan TV) transmissions on your iPad. Just connect it to an HF radio (or even set it next to the radio`s speaker), tune ...
this is a great app for portable use dont have to bring bunch of wires and hardwares It autosaves your received images to photos folder One issue it sometimes changes mode in a blink of an eye and right before the sstv station starts to transmit bit annoying so you have to keep an eye on your phone that its in the right mode Hopefully updates will fix and add mode lock So far it works great                 great app Revxxx
Works great for receiving even just holding near my HT on low volume The sliders for adjusting phase and skew tend to keep moving after you lift your finger and it throws off the image Also there should be a way to automatically save received picture data and or the audio files It auto detected the start of a new picture and wiped out the last one before I could save                 Almost perfect naturalorang3
I have used this program successfully for several months and am generally happy with it The basic functions I find easy to use I use Solocator to get pictures because it puts GPS numbers on the photo automatically and I was able to type my callsign in the same font size something I could not do in Black Cat                 Nice program needs work EmilyPN
It s good                     It s good 123abc129
Phase and Skew sliders are too sensitive also does not TX in every mode other than that great app                 suggestions Rod Roc
This app would be awesome if it was able to transmit images as well Definitely needs an update for iOS 10             Please add support for Apple Watch TheGadgetinator
Using an interface to connect the radio to the iPhone I can snap a pix with one iPhone and via radio send it to another iPhone running the APP or to a computer running SSTV SW It even works without an interface just using the audible tones to send thru the radio The Phase and Skew sliders are a little too sensitive but maybe that will be fixed in an update It works                     SSTV APP works great Stargazer3
It s interesting to decode the pictures from amsat podcast with acoustic coupling                 Very good Nicholas_Name
This app decodes SSTV extremely well even just using the microphone set next to my radio It even did a good job when I was across the room My only gripe is that I d really like to be able to save the images to the camera roll so that I can text the images to my friends It is strange that I can email or tweet or send to Facebook but I can t text the image This app would be 5 star with that functionality                 Almost perfect Random654321
I used to be able to send and receive with this app I can no longer send what a waste and I can t downgrade Iphone 5 user     They have removed sending capabilities Mak90
but I have not had success decoding the recent ISS images in PD180 I have heard others have had success but on my iPad running iOS 8 2 it doesn t seem to work correctly         Works for some rob from smithville
All you need is this app and a radio and you can send and receive SSTV images It s super easy I ve got this on both my iPad and iPhone It ROCKS                     Handy as a Pocket on a Shirt KF5RHI
This is a good app and it does decode SSTV audio I used it to decode images from the International Space Station but the Phase and Skew controls are way way too sensitive on the iPhone The slightest movement of the control can throw the image way off From one app developer to another you need to decrease the min and max values for those slider controls by a factor of 10 or so                 It works cc192000
This app enabled painless reception of images from the ISS using only an HT and a tape measure beam Easy to set up and is supported well                     Extraordinary K6LCS
This is going to be used to pull images from ISS as it goes overhead and it looks to be a good solution for that One minor quibble It needs to be updated for Retina HD displays                 Great program Needs retina HD support majorgearhead
The transmit button is off the left side All you can see is the edge of it There is no setup button in the bottom left corner as stated in the help I wanted this to work so bad I m doing a presentation at our club and thought I ll use my iPad Nope doesn t transmit if I can t get to the button     No transmit or setup button on iPad Justastupidname
Only decodes top right section of the photo very disappointing when I used it for the ISS pass Needs update         Only decodes top right section of the photo very disappointing when I used it for the ISS pass W5IPA
This is a cool app except the auto detection is wonky and when receiving an image it only displays the top right quadrant and not the whole image Is better at sending than receiving Disappointing that it doesn t function properly after I paid for it         Needs updating LuvWii
Just wanted to say thanks for making this and thanks for maintaining it                 Thanks Βrian K.
My view button is cut off and the Tx button is not on the display Other than that it seems to work great 5 starts when I have these buttons             Missing buttons BLW_ELE
I loved that you took my suggestion for having the ability to Tweet and post to Facebook right from the app Now I will challenge you more by improving the interface It just seems so plain and uninteresting Like with the addition to Twitter and Facebook it s just text Why not the logos or buttons Making the app visually appealing I think it just as important as functionality Looking forward to another update             Great App But Can Be Greater MobbyG
I use this app in my shortwave receiver station I like the fact you don t have to set the SSTV mode yourself                 Great app ShortwaveTutorials
Works great both RX and TX Can t wait for IOS7 update                     Works CratesOfWood
As stated before it s crude but it works I wish the skew and phase sliders would adjust sensitivity the farther your finger is away from them like how it is in the Music app but other than that I would say wonderful                     Works Nick-n-Kristi
Works well for what it is but needs a refresh the mic on a iPhone is not that great also fix the word glitch large letters have 2 per picture                 Needs update Ple7894
It appears to work as directed but the interface is very crude and doesn t always respond well to rotation my device I think people with some idea of how the tech works will find this handy but I find myself as a newbie wanting a bit more polish and a better shove in the right direction             Crude but workable davmillar
Does exactly what I need and does it well                     Works very well Klingon00
Works well with iPad 1 iPad 3 iPhone 3GS iPhone 4S Application will TX RX directly and over HF VHF UHF radios I have an isolated cable on the way that connects directly to my 817ND and the iPad headset jack I ll give it a try once it arrives It s a little wonky on the auto start thus partial images sometimes 4 stars                 It works well Vagrant.us
The interface is a bit crude but that s not important It was always useful for allowing me to easily decode SSTV anywhere but now that it can also transmit it s perfect Good job                     Awesome asmello
Receive works great but it needs an encoder too             Needs an encoder Cuckooguy
These three apps for Ham Radio RTTY PSK31 and SSTV would be great but they each have problems AND THERE S NO WAY to contact the developers I ve tried and tried to find a way There is a public forum but try as I may I can not get joined or signed up No email is returned after registering Each of the three apps needs a CLEAR SCREEN BUTTON The RTTY app will not send the correct characters There are other negatives The concepts are good but what a annoyance to have paid for these and not be able to get any troubleshooting help or problem reporting Don t waste your money YET         Needs more work Bingoldsby
Works great Ipad interface and audio detection seems better than on my 4s Only thing we need now is a transmitter                 Great app TheSpillmonkey
This app is a fun way to play with receiving sstv on the go I use it with my iPhone and my daughters like to use it with their hf receivers and old iPhones we have given them                 Works with iPhone Centuryofterror
Please add an image encoder for the fifth star                 It works AnythingButNormal
I use it and it s the best if add TX mod 73                 Tx mode Roy 1963
I m not into amateur radio but SSTV is still fascinating This app seems to work with all the modes the SSTV program on my computer can throw at it Please add the sending of images if it isn t too hard to implement that would be great                 Awesome amddude
This is an amazing app For those of us who enjoy sstv it s some surprise to see an sstv image taking form on the iPad screen The app works well with input from the iPad mike put next to a speaker but for the best operation it should have direct audio input This can be accomplished using the apple iPad camera connector kit and a USB audio interface such as the iMic As always it helps to have a good signal to track and it doesn t hurt to know the format Scottie 2 etc Although with a decent signal the app can detect it All in all a very worthwhile use for the iPad                 Works as promised Rosea1
