Today I thought I would give by LionChirf Plus SOO Line diesel engine a little run time using the LionChief app on my Android tablet instead of the included matching remote.  No matter how many times I tried, I could not keep the engine connected to the tablet.  It would connect o.k., but then immediately lose the connection.  I thought that I would give it a try turning off the fluorescent light fixture that was overhead where I was operating from.  The connection issue was solved and the LionChief app ran my engine with no further problems.  It appears that fluorescent light fixtures can cause interference between engines and the LionChief app.

Same here. The app worked prior to the update for the new VC.

After installing the update it just crashes. I have LED lighting in my train room.

I prefer the Legacy remote for more realistic operation, so no big loss for me. Thought I'd see what the buzz was about.

A couple of weeks later my phone started doing odd things. "Sim card not detected". I uninstalled the app and all is well. FWIW....I guess it wasn't meant to be........
