@PA Train Guy posted:Thanks to everyone for your helpful advice. Still having trouble but will try the approach that Danr has suggested. The app seems to be so much easier than the handheld. I would hope that MTH, in what ever form they end up being, will improve the app to make it easier to connect.
I assure you once you get the Wi-Fi issues sorted out, it is very easy to use.
I don’t know that either the app or remote are easier than one another. The remote has some options that are buried in menus that are sometimes hard remember. The app is very different from the remote, so if you are a pro with the remote it can be a challenge to switch.
One advantage of the remote is being able to feel the buttons and more confidently operate it without looking. The app, when used on a tablet device like the iPad is much easier to read when setting up engines and whatnot.
I have both and like them equally.
