MikroTik

This app is really starting to grow on me - it's great being able to whip out my iPhone and check or tweak settings. Unfortunately the latest update REMOVED the internet detect IP addresses from the startup screen. It now only shows the interface names. Please display the ip's again - or at least display the ip's even by clicking on "internet" on the home screen. It seems pointless just asking if you want to enable/disable the detect function! NOT GREAT that the app times-out and you need to relogin even you switch to another app and return a few seconds later. I really like that you can copy the settings - like you can in winbox. It would be nice if CAPSMAN interfaces are displayed on the startup screen. Only wlans are shown - and of course display '0 devices connected' since all clients are managed by CAPS. So the wlans are effectively not even active. Please add "managed by CAPSMAN" type messages with the SSID and frequency - as displayed in winbox. A good early functional version and I believe great things to come from this app and mikrotik.

There’s a lot to like about this app. A couple of things are odd though: 1) switching apps instantly logs you out 2) checking for system updates for RouterOS is far from intuitive On the plus side, an upgrade button appeared on the main screen and it successfully upgraded the router. Browsing all the different config menus wasn’t bad either.

I didn't install this before, after reading some negative reviews. I wasn't sure if it's an official MikroTik app or not. But it turned out a false alarm. It actually works very nice and it's an official Mikrotik app. I wouldn't buy TikTools app if I knew this earlier. There's still rooms for improvement though and making the interface a bit more intuitive.

MikroTik is a company made by geeks for geeks. Their equipment is quite capable and very affordable but their user friendliness is severely lacking. From the standpoint of user experience - Using MikroTik products is like stepping back in time to 1990’s. This app is no different. With exception of 3 screens - they have simply copied their menu structure into a phone without regard for mobile device as a unique medium that needs to be approached differently from the UI standpoint. This is one ugly and unfriendly app and that is a shame. MikroTik makes very capable and reliable hardware that is very affordable. But their user interfaces are archaic, ugly and downright primitive. Too bad!

It’s good to have a Mikrotik app, but it’s not even close to the web interface, especially on an iPad. A few (IMO important) quirks: 1) No landscape mode on the iPad? What is going on? It used to work, if I remember correctly. Now, out of nowhere, it’s stuck on portrait mode. It’s not good and I already have an aching neck. 2) I can see the registered devices on each wireless interface very neatly on the first screen. Good. But I can’t do anything (like remove them etc)??? Why is that? Is it just half-baked?
