If you have problems connecting, please try the following:

1. Make sure your android device is connected to wifi, not mobile data.

2. Disable smart network switch on your android device.

3. Make sure your Android device is connected to the same subnet as your computer. This can be a problem for setups with WiFi repeaters or multiple access points/routers. For example, if your android device connects to a WiFi router that connects to a modem, and your PC connects directly to the modem, this app WILL NOT work. The PC must connect to the router.

4. Try several different android devices. If none of them can connect, it's likely a network issue. If some of them can connect, it's likely you have an incompatible device.

5. Disable firewalls on both your X-Plane computer and your android device.

6. Check your router settings so that they are not set to filter out multicast traffic.
