Jr shows the certificate's fingerprint (scroll it with the Digital Crown) and, if you trust it, accepts that exact certificate for that server only, and warns you if it ever changes. Forget it from the server's options.… more

- 📦VibeSDR Jr updated to version 11.0.5• On a shared VibeServer receiver, FM de-emphasis now shows what the receiver is actually running, so a change made by another listener appears on your wrist.
• Band names below medium wave are corrected: VLF and LF are no longer labelled as long wave, and long wave is no longer labelled as beacons.
• On a shared VibeServer receiver, when another listener moves the passband or changes mode, your watch now shows it.… more - 📈VibeSDR Jr entered the top 100Top Paid · Utilities · CA

- 📦VibeSDR Jr version 1.3.1Fixes the waterfall on UberSDR receivers.
• The spectrum could stay blank until you zoomed, then freeze again when you zoomed back out. The watch was re-subscribing to the receiver over and over instead of settling, so the picture never had a chance to draw.
• Zooming right out no longer shows the signals bunched to one side. The view stays centred on the frequency you are tuned to, and the widest view is now one a watch screen can actually show something useful at.
• Connecting to a receiver by its address on your own network is no longer slow to start.
• Audio is unaffected by these changes.… more - 🆕VibeSDR Jr released on the App Store

About VibeSDR Jr
VibeSDR Jr is a complete software-defined radio receiver that runs on your Apple Watch. Not a remote control for a phone in your pocket — the watch makes its own connection, does its own decoding and plays its own audio. Leave the handset at home.
Turn the Digital Crown to tune. The spectrum and waterfall run live on the wrist, in colour, at a frame rate you can actually read a band with. Press and hold for the menu, and everything else is a tap away.
WHAT IT RECEIVES
Jr is a client, so it needs a receiver to listen to — either one of your own on your network, or one of the thousands of public ones already out there. It speaks VibeServer, OpenWebRX, KiwiSDR and FM-DX Webserver, and it ships with a directory of public servers, so there is something to listen to within seconds of installing.
VibeServer is your own receiver. It is built into the VibeSDR phone app and available free for macOS — plug in an RTL-SDR, an Airspy HF+ or an SDRplay RSP and it is yours.
MODES AND DECODERS
USB, LSB, AM, SAM, FM, NFM and wide FM in stereo, plus CW upper and lower. DAB, and an ADS-B view that plots the aircraft talking overhead.
ON THE WRIST
Bookmarks, synced with the VibeSDR phone app through iCloud. A band plan, so you know what you are looking at. Bandwidth, squelch, gain and the receiver's own hardware controls — including the LNA, IF gain and notches an SDRplay RSP actually has, rather than a dongle's single slider pretending to be them. Background audio, so it keeps playing when you drop your wrist. And a link meter that tells you the truth about the connection.
VibeSDR Jr is open source under the GPLv3. The engine underneath it, VibeDSP, is our own — the same one that runs the phone app, so a waterfall you set up in one turns up looking the same on the other.
Requires a Wi-Fi or cellular connection, and a receiver to connect to.
