Control gSender with phone

I have connected my phone to gSender (v.1.5.2) and it works but the only issue is the units. On my PC, it is running in inches but the view on my phone is in mm, is there a way to convert the phone to also run in inches? I wasn’t able to find a place to change the phone display.

Thanks,

Jim

Hi Jimc,

I run a remote on my pc and can reach settings inside the remote gsender window to change some settings.

I run 1.2.2 and I have tried running it on tablet and phone, to find it was not without bugs. One of them was not being able to reach all buttons including settings, leaving it stranded useles.

I don’t know if you have a settings button available on a phone in the newer versions, but if you do, you can either just do the mm to inch switch or tranfer your settings from your main gsender.

The remote device having seperate settings is mentioned here:

The remark at the end - Follow the instructions below - is a bit confusing. The actual instructions are found above or click this link:

Mr. Spam,

I am running the v1.5.3 of gSender and I don’t see any way to change the units in the remote (phone) control. The units on my laptop are correct, but those of my phone show only mm:

Any thoughts or is this going to be fixed in another update?

I am trying to figure out the same as there is not the gear icon on the phone with version 1.5.3 and the info tab shows units as G21 but no way to change.

I was hoping this would be fixed in the latest version of gSender, any plans to fix this issue?

Thanks,

Jim

I’ve added it to our backlog, it should be in one of the next patch releases for gSender, but I’ll leave a comment here when that version comes out to remind everyone :slight_smile:

Hey all, this feature to change units in remote mode has been added since v1.5.6 and onwards. You can change the units by tapping on the units area, which gives you a pop-up to change the preferred units.

Will close this topic for now. If you experience any persistent issues, please feel free to open up a new one :slight_smile:
